class 10 novel , helen has given a vivid description of "the lvy green ". creat a pen picture of the house . need ans

Answer 1

When Helen was very young, she lived with her parents in a small house on the Keller property.  This little house was called "Ivy Green."  The name came from the ivy which grew on the house and on everything near it.  It was common in the South to have a small house on the property.  Helen's father built it after the Civil War.  A lush garden was beside the house.  The house itself was small and contained two rooms.  One room was large and one was smaller.  The main room was the large one, and the smaller one was a sleeping quarters for a servant.  The little house had a porch, which was covered in flowers and climbing vines.  Helen described her first home:

It was completely covered with vines, climbing roses and honeysuckles.  From the garden it looked like an arbour.  The little porch was hidden from view by a screen of yellow roses and Southern smilax.

When Helen was five, the family moved into a new house that was much larger.   It had an upstairs and many rooms, including a sitting room with a hearth.  The new house also had a large porch, which honeysuckle grew on.
