Answer 1

I don't know , sorry

Answer 2

Answer:

a) The thing that usually goes dark is the house of the speaker.  In the poem 'My father's hands', the speaker says the world goes dark.

b) By the line 'the world goes dark', the speaker means that the electricity is off due to a fuse problem and so the house is dark.

- The lights are out and the surrounding area appears dark which is indicated as the world is dark by the speaker.  

Hope this helps.
