What was the outcome of the experiment with the blind doctor, T. N., that is described in "Blind, Yet Seeing"?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The blind doctor was able to navigate safely through the obstacles along the hallway, 'guiding' him to safely walk without hitting the obstacles.

Explanation:

Benedict Carey's article "Blind, Yet Seeing" from The New York Times reports the physical case of blindsight, which can be overcome by a person. The article also discusses how the subconscious mind of a person is capable of helping a person 'overcome' certain obstacles despite being physically blind.

In an experiment conducted, a well-educated blind doctor was asked to participate which he initially refused. His stance was that he "had no interest in navigating an obstacle course - a cluttered hallway - for the benefit of science." True. But when he did agree to be a part of it, his subconscious mind helped him "zigzag down the hall, sidestepping a garbage can, a tripod, a stack of paper and several boxes as if he could see everything clearly." This shows that the subconscious mind is still able to 'aid' a person despite physical blindness.

Machiavelli claims that a leader must find a balance between a temperate and a cruel attitude to be successful. He makes a very effective argument. First, he uses deductive reasoning by stating a conclusion that he uses to prove his point. He says that if a leader is not cruel, his subjects will rebel and no one will obey the law. Second, his evidence is compelling. Machiavelli uses historical examples to support his ideas, which are clear and interesting to read. Finally, he uses sophisticated diction, creating a serious tone that provides a sense of authority. His reasoning, evidence, and diction all work together to support his claim, making his argument both horrifying and effective.

BEFORE the High and Far-Off Times, O my Best Beloved, came the Time of the Very Beginnings; and that was in the days when the Eldest Magician was getting Things ready.

And the Animals said, “O Eldest Magician, what shall we play at?” and he said, “I will show you.” He took the Elephant—All-the-Elephant-there-was—and said, “Play at being an Elephant,” and All-the-Elephant-there-was played. He took the Beaver—All-the-Beaver-there-was—and said, “Play at being a Beaver,” and All-the Beaver-there-was played.

One by one he took all the beasts and birds and fishes and told them what to play at.

seema tells a joke passive voice​

Answers

Answer:

A joke was told by Seema.

Explanation:

In the rewritten passive sentence above, Seema who was the subject of the given sentence becomes the object. This is how passive sentence are phrased. Instead of the subject to perform an action on the object, the subject rather receives the action and the object assumes the position of the subject.

Therefore, while the first sentence- "Seema tells a joke," is in the active voice, the sentence, "A joke was told by Seema," is in the passive voice.
