Lesson54 Helen Keller
Helen Keller was born in Alabama in 1880. When she was twenty months old,


she got an illness. After her illness Helen became deaf and blind. Her


parents did not know what to do.
When Helen was seven years old, her parents got her a special teacher. Her


name was Miss Anne Sullivan. Miss Sullivan worked with Helen all day. She


took Helen's hand and spelled a word in her hand. Helen soon learned 1 to say


what she wanted in this way.
In 1900 Helen entered Radcliffe College. Miss Sullivan sat next to Helen in


class. She spelled all the words into Helen's hand. Miss Sullivan also


read to Helen all the time. At that time there were only a few books for


the blind. These were Braille books. They had a special alphabet 2 made with


dots that blind people could read with their fingers. Helen graduated from


Radcliffe with honours.
Helen wrote several books. The most famous ones are The Story of My Life


and Midstream: My Later Life. She also wrote magazine articles and spoke 3


all over the country. It was not easy to understand her. Miss Sullivan


repeated what Helen said. Helen spoke about the deaf and blind. People


everywhere became interested. Helen became a symbol of new hope for the


deaf and blind.

海伦凯勒
海伦凯勒于1880年出生在阿拉巴马。当她20个月时她生了一场病,病后她变得


又聋又瞎,她的父母束手无策。
当海伦7岁时,她的父母给她请来了一个特殊的老师,名叫安妮沙利文小姐。沙


利文小姐整天和海伦一起学习。她拉着海伦的手,在她手上拼写单词。海伦很快学会以


这种方式表达她想表达的意思。
1900年海伦进入了拉德克里夫学院。课堂上沙利文小姐坐在海伦旁边。她把所有单词拼


写在海伦手上。沙利文小姐还一直给海伦朗读。那时,专门给盲人阅读的书籍非常少,


盲文书籍是以点构成的特殊的字母,盲人可以通过用手指触摸这些点来阅读。海伦以优


异的成绩从拉德克里夫学院毕业。
海伦写了几本书,其中最著名的是《我的一生》和《我的后半生》。她还写了许多杂志


文章,在世界各地演讲。听懂她说话不是件容易的事,沙利文小姐重复海伦的话。海伦


谈论聋哑人和盲人。各地的人都很感兴趣。海伦成为了聋哑人和盲人新的希望的象征。
