Imagine the most famous person you know, Michael Jordan, Britney Spears, Prince William. Now think of this: Not one of them is as famous as Helen Keller was in her day.
Back in the late 1800s, nobody believed that blind or deaf people could lead normal lives. Most were sent away from their homes. They lived in schools that were more like prison than places to learn and grow. Few people believed that a person who was both blind and deaf could ever learn to communicate. But Annie Sullivan believed she could teach 7 - year - old Helen Keller language.
When Anner first met Helen in 1887, Helen was wild and angry. She spoke by grunting(咕哝)and screaming. Nobody, not even Helen’s parents, believed Annie would succeed. And when she did succeed, news of this miracle(奇迹)spread far.
Helen often said that she had spent her early childhood in a " dungeon(地牢)of silence" and loneliness. Freed from this dungeon by Annie, Helen blossomed. By the age of 10, Helen was able to write and read Braille. In addition to English, Helen also learned French and Greek. She even learned to talk clearly enough so that Annie could understand her.
She became an author, writing 13 books and hundreds of articles. She and Annie traveled a-round the world. Shelearned to ride a horse and a bike. When she died, just before her 88 birthday , she had become one of America’s great heroes.
" Life, " Helen once said, " is either a daring adventure or nothing. "
