Question

Helen keller visit to naira

Answer 1

Helen Keller visited the World's Fair for three weeks in the summer of 1893 with her teacher, Anne Sullivan, and with the inventor (and her friend) Dr. Alexander Graham Bell. The president of the fair, Mr. Higinbotham, gave her permission to touch the exhibits.
Helen visited the Midway Plaisance, where she experienced many of the world's marvels, including the bazaars of India, a model of Cairo with camels and mosques, and the lagoons around Venice. She also boarded a Viking ship and a saw a model of the Santa Maria, where a replica of Columbus's hourglass made her appreciate how scared Columbus must have felt as his men planned to kill him. She also saw the Cape of Good Hope exhibit, in which she learned about how diamonds are mined. She was introduced to new forms of technology, such as the telephone and phonograph, and Alexander Graham Bell explained them to her. Finally, she saw anthropological relics, which she credited with helping her understand the progress of humans. 
Touching the exhibits with her hands, Helen referred to them as "a sort of tangible kaleidoscope." In her time at the fair, she learned a great deal about the world and about new forms of technology, and she learned a large number of new words.

Answer 2

It was during Helen's visit to Boston that she began to read in earnest and was permitted to spend a part of each day in the Institution library. She would wander from bookcase to bookcase and take down whatever book her fingers lighted upon. When she read, she understood one word in ten or two words on a page. The words fascinated her but she took no conscious account of what she read. But she was at an impressionable age so her mind retained many of the words and sentences which would flash quite naturally. This led her friends to wonder at the richness of Helen's vocabulary. She had read parts of many books and a great deal of poetry without comprehending but it was not until she discovered 'Little Lord Fauntleroy' which was the first book of any consequence that she read understandingly. One day her teacher found Helen in the corner of the library poring over the pages of 'The Scarlet Letter' when she was eight years old. Her teacher told her about the story of Lord Fauntleroy which Helen could read instead. Thus began her journey of reading the first chapters of the fascinating child's story and her outlook towards reading changed. She began to enjoy and understand what she read.
