Answer 1

Helen Keller was born in Tuscumbia Alabama , the USA on June 27 1880. She suffered from a serious illness at the age of 19 months that left her blind and deaf . Even then she devised gestures and actions to make herself understood to other people and she had an inclination to perform household chores such as folding laundry and tried to remain as much a part of the family as possible . Over the years ,her frustration grew her angry and hostile and she often erupted into uncontrolled fits . Helen Keller had overcome the seemingly insurmountable obstacles of deafness and blindness to become a lecturer and a social activist . She wrote the Story of my life which was published in 1903 in the US . The book was well received followed by Midstream , My Later Life. She was motivated by many people in her life like Miss Anne Mansfield Sullivan , Dr Anagnos , Dr Alexander Graham Bell ,Dr Everett Hale , Bishop Brooks and the most important one her father Arthur H. Keller and her mother Kate Adams . These people were the true epitome of love , care , patience and faith. Thanks

Answer 2

Helen Keller is the writer, narrator as well as the central character ofThe Story of My Life. The book, while tracing her journey from childhood to her college days, underlines many of her characteristic traits. In spite ofher disabilities, Helen showed exemplary determination and perseverance in her life.Even though Helen had become mute with the loss of her ability to hear, through her hard work and unfailing resolve, she learnt how to speak. Helen overcame all the ordeals and fears on her journey to realise her dream of going to college. Helen appears to be an enthusiastic and, at times, unruly from a very young age. She was frequently gripped by bouts of depression and discontentment. But strong will-power motivated her to overcome all negativities.Being deaf and blind, her only source of knowledge about the world was her books.Thus, Helen was an avid reader. Helen alsoloved travelling and staying out-of-doors. Her love of the countryside is evident throughout the text. Even though she lacked the sense of sight, she could appreciate the beauty of nature and the works of art.
