Features: Helen Keller, a. She was blind from an early age, losing the joy of her beautiful childhood. She didn’t know how wonderful the world was, didn’t know how colorful the flowers were in spring, how lush the forests were in summer, how beautiful the leaves were in autumn, or how white the snow was in winter. Helen Keller, a . Although darkness was like a thick wall, isolating her from the outside world, she often encouraged herself with this goal: in her lifetime, she would strive to learn to be independent and, to the extent possible, avoid causing trouble for others. It was because of this goal that she remained strong in spirit despite her disability. She was not afraid of any difficulties and kept striving toward this goal. Although her body was not free, her heart was. In a world without light, she overcame the darkness with her indomitable spirit. With her wisdom, she learned much knowledge and entered Radcliffe College, eventually graduating from Harvard University. She wrote two autobiographies and met Mark Twain. Her childhood was so, yet she felt very happy and fulfilled. She always faced everything with an optimistic attitude. Helen Keller wants to give a piece of advice to her sighted friends: Use your eyes well, as if you were going to lose your sight tomorrow. Cherish every day that you can see! Helen Keller—a woman who lived 88 years of life but endured 87 years of solitude in a world without light, sound, or speech. Not only did she graduate from Radcliffe College at Harvard University, but she also devoted her entire life to establishing charitable institutions, benefiting people with disabilities. She wrote 14 books in her lifetime, with The Story of My Life being her debut. This book was praised by the renowned American writer Dr. Helen as one of the two most important literary contributions of 1902.
