Question

How would you describe Annie's emotions? Why is she feeling this way? Cite evidence from the text to support your answer.

Answer 1

Annie was a miracle worker.

Explanation:

• Annie was confident and she motivated Helen Keller. She taught her hand symbols for various objects. But Helen felt it as a repetition game and did not respond well.

• Helen misbehaved with Annie as she could not express her emotions. When other family members treated Helen like an infant, Annie treated her like an ordinary child with disabilities.

• Once she pumped water on her hands to show Helen how it would look like. This brought an amazing change in the life of Helen Keller.
