| Helen Keller was a very bright and beautiful girl. At age of six months she could already say a few words. But before she was two years old, she was badly ill. She could not see or hear, and could not even talk. When she was six, her parents invited a teacher for her. With the help of the teacher, she began to see and hear the world around her through her hands. She learned to read the books for the blind. The teacher took Helen for long walks, and told her about all the beautiful sights. Helen touched flowers, climbed trees, and smelt a storm before it came. She also learned how to swim and ride a horse. After she grew up, she became a famous writer in America. Her first and most famous book was "The Story of My Life". Her story has brought new hope to many blind and deaf people. It gave light to those in darkness and encouraged them to live and work. |
