Read the excerpt from the story of my life by helen keller
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

I think you meant to ask:Read the excerpt from The Story of My Life by Helen Keller.

Dr. Bell advised my father to write to Mr. Anagnos, director of the Perkins Institution in Boston, the scene of Dr. Howe's great labours for the blind, and ask him if he had a teacher competent to begin my education. This my father did at once, and in a few weeks there came a kind letter from Mr. Anagnos with the comforting assurance that a teacher had been found. This was in the summer of 1886. But Miss Sullivan did not arrive until the following March.

Which line from the excerpt shows the first-person point of view?

(A)Dr. Bell advised my father to write to Mr. Anagnos

(B)in a few weeks there came a kind letter from Mr. Anagnos

(C)This was in the summer of 1886.

(D)But Miss Sullivan did not arrive until the following March.

Explanation:

If you did want to ask that here is the answer because I had the same quizz before:

Answer is A

because...

Keller’s father contacted the director of the Perkins Institution and requested a teacher for his daughter. After a long wait, Miss Sullivan arrived at the Kellers’ house in March 1887.In Helen Keller's "The Story of My Life", she narrates how she began to learn and live her life as a blind and deaf person since her childhood. She recounts how she came to be after her lessons with Miss Annie Sullivan.At the end of Chapter III, Helen mentions how Dr. Alexander Graham Bell who they had consulted about her condition had suggested her father Mr. Keller to write to Mr. Anagnos. Being the director of Perkins Institution in Boston, he would be able to suggest any teacher to help Helen.

Quindlen begins by disagreeing with a fellow writer. How and how fairly does she represent the opposing point of view?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:Quindlen was criticizing the application of standardized testing (perhaps in the wake of the controversial "No Child Left Behind" act which some say placed too much emphasis on standardized testing). Quindlen's argument is that if standardized testing is to be used, it should at least be interesting and more importantly, such testing should not edit works of literature to the point at which significant meaning is lost. Actually, she is arguing that literature should not be edited at all.  

Quindlen doesn't think children are too feeble and weak to read controversial issues because they are exposed to such issues through the media and Internet every day. In fact, by sanitizing (editing out anything remotely controversial) literature, the test will not challenge the student.  

Those who design the test claim that anything controversial might distract the student and affect his/her performance. Quindlen's response is that the kids can handle it and more to the point, if all remotely controversial issues are edited out, what is left can hardly been interesting or engaging. Also, to edit in this way is historically irresponsible. Quindlen notes that in Isaac Singer's excerpt about being a young Jew in prewar (World War II) Poland, all references to Jews and Poles were taken out.  

Quindlen notes that there are other consequences of this editing. One is that the students will determine from this that those designing the test have no faith in their (the students') ability to handle differing perspectives and challenging intellectual material. Quindlen argues that this is sending the message to children that "we don't think you're smart enough."  

But what do the kids learn from this? That the written word doesn't really matter much, that it can be weakened at will. That no one trusts a student to understand that variations in opinion and background are both objectively interesting and intellectually challenging.  

This also tells the student that there is no power to the written word (as literature, laws, etc.) if we can simply edit things that don't appeal to a particular way of thinking. So, clearly Quindlen is against this manipulation of literature, in these tests and in general, for a number of reasons, all logical. This kind of editing also sets a dangerous precedent where those in power of educating children have the ability to subject students to a particular worldview that they only assume is the best for everyone. This is quite audacious and ignores one of the hallmarks of American culture: diversity.
