Comprehension Passage

Read the passage given below and answer the question that follows

1. If I were given the use of my eyes, say, just for three days, I should divide the period into three parts.

2. On the first day, I should want to see the people whose kindness and gentleness and companionship have made my life worth living. I do not know what it is to see into the heart of a friend through that "window of the soul," the eye. I can only "see" through my fingertips the outline of a face. I can detect laughter, sorrow, and many other obvious emotions. I know my friends from the feel of their faces.

3. First I should like to gaze upon the face of my dear teacher, Ms. Anne Sullivan Macy. She came to see me when I was a child. She opened the other world for me.

4. On my second day, I should like to see the pageant of man's progress, and I should go to the museums. I should try to probe into the soul of man through his art. The things I knew through touch I should now see. The evening of my second day I should spend at a theatre or at the movies.

5. The following morning, I should again greet the dawn, anxious to discover new delights, new revelations of beauty. Today this third day, I shall spend in the workaday world, amid the haunts of men going about the business of life.

6. I, who am blind can give one hint to those who see: Use your eyes as if tomorrow you would be stricken blind.
