Here are the answers to the questions: 9. The question asks what Ved's success in passing tests proves, given an implied context of blindness. If Ved is blind and succeeds in tests, it indicates an ability to adapt and utilize other faculties. Option (A) "He could see again" contradicts the premise of blindness. Option (B) "He was clever" is a general trait and doesn't specifically address the challenge of blindness. Option (C) "He began to adjust to his blindness" directly addresses the process of overcoming the challenge. Option (D) "by using his other sense" describes how* he adjusted, which is a part of the broader adjustment process. Therefore, his success proves that he was adjusting to his condition. The correct option is (C) He began to adjust to his blindness. 10. The question asks for the meaning of the phrase "mind is without fear and head is held high." This phrase is from Rabindranath Tagore's poem "Where the Mind is Without Fear." "Mind is without fear" directly means to be fearless*. "Head is held high" symbolizes dignity, self-respect*, and confidence, rather than just physical posture or pride in a specific position. Option (A) "to be fearless and self-respecting" accurately captures both parts of the phrase. Option (B) "to be proud of one high position" is too narrow and doesn't reflect the universal aspiration of the poem. Option (C) "to stand straight and be carefree" describes physical posture and a general state, but lacks the depth of "fearless and self-respecting." Since (B) and (C) are not fully accurate, (D) "all of above" is incorrect. The correct option is (A) to be fearless and self-respecting. 3 done, 2 left today. You're making progress.
