Answer:

The morning after my teacher came she led me into her room and gave me a doll. The little blind children at the Perkins Institution had sent it and Laura Bridgman had dressed it, but I did not know this until afterward. When I had played with it a little while, Miss Sullivan slowly spelled into my hand the word "d-o-l-l." I was at once interested in this finger play and tried to imitate it. When I finally succeeded in making the letters correctly I was flushed with childish pleasure and pride. Running downstairs to my mother I held up my hand and made the letters for the doll. I did not know that I was spelling a word or even that words existed; I was simply making my fingers go in monkey-like imitation. In the days that followed I learned to spell in this uncomprehending way a great many words, among them pin, hat, cup, and a few verbs like sit, stand, and walk. But my teacher had been with me for several weeks before I understood that everything has a name. I left the well-house eager to learn. Everything had a name, and each name gave birth to a new thought. As we returned to the house every object which I touched seemed to quiver with life. That was because I saw everything with the strange, new sight that had come to me.

Which of the following best summarizes the excerpt?

Helen's teacher taught her to finger spell doll so she knew how to tell her teacher what toy she wanted to play with.

Helen was excited to learn that everything had a name so that she could talk with her teacher.

Helen liked to touch all the objects in the house so she knew which ones she wanted to play with.

Helen's teacher taught her all objects to have a name opening the world of language.

Which statement best describes the subjects of the poems?
tigry1 [53]

The woman in Byron’s poem is gentle; the woman in Poe’s poem is welcoming.

In Byron's poem the speaker uses the words and phrases "mellowed", "serenely sweet", "soft", and "calm" to show the gentleness of the woman. He also at the end says she has "A mind at peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent!". These all show her gentleness. There is no mention of wealth, youth, or adventure.

In Poe's poem the speaker talks about returning home to Helen and being welcomed by her. He says, "Thy hyacinth hair, thy classic face, Thy Naiad airs have brought me home." He talks about how her traits draw him home. He also goes on to describe the image of her holding a light as to light the way and welcome him home.

Hello! My name is Zalgo and I am here to provide you with some assistance today. Here is the info that you need! --> (I don’t have a huge love for sports, but when I was younger, I used to have “hoop dreams”. Hoops dreams are basically any/all sports with a net or hoop. A lot of people tell me that I am built like I play Football, but I like Basketball a lot more. My love from Basketball is just from how fun and cool it all looks and feels and I like how so many people can play it and have fun while also getting a workout. It’s competitive and fun, so, I guess that would be my love for sports.)

I hope that this helps! :P
