PLEASE ANSWER IN ABOUT 200-250 WORDS.....✌️♥️

Answer 1

Martha Washington was the daughter of the cook who used to work for the Keller family. She was Helen’s constant companion during her childhood. A coloured girl, Martha understood Helen’s signs, and Helen could easily make her do just as she wished. Martha was submissive to Helen’s strong, active, indifferent demeanour. They used to spend a great deal of time in the kitchen kneading dough balls, helping make ice-cream, grinding coffee, and quarrelling over the cake-bowl. They even used to feed the hens and turkeys that swarmed about the kitchen steps. 

When Helen wanted to go egg-hunting, she would double her hands and put them on the ground, which meant something round in the grass, and Martha always understood. When they were fortunate enough to find a nest Helen never allowed Martha to carry the eggs home, making her understand by emphatic signs that she might fall and break them. On a hot July afternoon, both Helen and Martha were seated on the veranda steps, bored of cutting out paper dolls. After cutting up their shoestrings and clipping all the leaves off the honeysuckle that were within reach, they resorted to cutting each other’s curls, only to be stopped by Helen’s mother. 

These incidents of those early years were fixed in Helen’s memory, though isolated, but clear and distinct, making sense of silent, aimless, dayless life that Helen was living as a helpless child with no vision or hearing.

Answer 2

Answer:

Martha Washington was a child, a little older and taller than Helen, "ebony" of skin with black hair tamed by multiple braids. She was both compliant (or yielding) and mischievous, getting into trouble right along with Helen. She disliked conflict while liking play. Her mother was Helen's family's cook and gave them sweet treats, especially at Christmas.

The making ready for Christmas was always a delight to me. .... the pleasant odours that filled the house and the tidbits that were given to Martha Washington and me to keep us quiet. We were sadly in the way, but that did not interfere with our pleasure in the least.

Martha was valued by Helen particularly because Martha understood Helen's signs, so Helen was able to communicate. Martha Washington appears only briefly for a short time at the beginning of Helen's recollections.

In those days ... Martha Washington, the child of our cook, and Belle, an old setter and a great hunter in her day, were my constant companions. Martha Washington understood my signs, and I seldom had any difficulty in making her do just as I wished. It pleased me to domineer over her, and she generally submitted to my tyranny....
