As a result of the visit, she met her first and lasting teacher Anne Mansfield Sullivan a year later, on March 3, 1887. It was Ms. Sullivan, a dedicated and loving teacher, who helped Helen break through her world of silence.Darkness began to melt from her mind from the day Ms. Sullivan was steadily pumping cool water into one of Helen’s hands while repeatedly tapping out an alphabet code of five letters in the other – first slowly then rapidly. The scene was repeated again and again as young Helen painstakingly struggled. Suddenly the signals crossed Helen’s43 consciousness with a meaning. She knew that “w-a-t-e-r” meant something cool flowing over her hand. By nightfall, Helen had learned 30 words. She proved so gifted that she soon learned the fingertip alphabet and shortly afterward to write. In six short months, she knew625 words.44By the age of 10, Helen had mastered Braille as well as the manual alphabet and even learned to use the typewriter. By the time she was 16, Helen could speak well enough to go to preparatory school and to college. In 1904 she graduated “cum laude’ from Radcliffe College. Her beloved and patient teacher stayed with her through those years, interpreting lectures and class discussion to her. Helen Keller, the poor little girl of twenty years before, became one of history’s remarkable women. She dedicated her life to improving theconditions of the blind and the deaf-blind around the world, lecturing in more than 25 countries on all major continents. Wherever she appeared, she brought new courage to millions of blind people.a) Put the following events of Helen Keller’s life into chronological order.
