For the first 19 months of her life, Helen Keller was like other happy babies in every way. Then a sudden
illness injured(伤了) her eyes and ears. From then on, she could neither see nor hear. She did not learn to talk like
other children. Her world was still and dark.
There seemed to be no way to teach Helen. For a long time her parents did not know what to do for her. And
then, when she was six years old, they sent for a teacher with the name Anne Sullivan, who was almost blind,

love her.

draw the letters of a word on Keller’s hand. Then she would put in the child’s hand the thing that was named by the
word. A few weeks later Helen knew more than 100 words. As time went on, with Anne’s help, she could give talks
