Please make sure you read Croy's discussion of the uses of αὐτός very carefully! Make sure you understand the list of examples at the top of p. 44, showing all the different kinds of noun phrases you have learned so far. There is also a page of sample sentences with audio that you should study carefully.
In this section, you learn two new uses of αὐτός. You have already learned how αὐτός can be used as a pronoun. Now you will learn about two adjectival uses of αὐτός, which Croy labels the "intensive use" and the "identical use."
Here is a chart summarizing the examples mentioned by Croy.
