Answer:
The first thing Anna Sullivan requested was that both live apart to break the vicious circle between Helen and her parents and stop the constant emotional blackmail of the girl, who was stubborn and capricious. Once alone Sullivan had Helen touch an object and then spell the name on the palm of her hand in an attempt to make her understand that each thing had a name. But Helen's inner world was empty and the frustration at the lack of results was beginning to take its toll, until one day after walking near a fountain, Anne placed Helen's hand under the water and spelled the word "water" over it. And suddenly, that first childish word that according to her parents had been pronounced so early that it almost seemed a miracle, sprang up in her like the liquid from the source itself.
Step-by-step explanation:
Anna Sullivan came into the life of Helen Keller in 1887, three months before she was 7 years. Keller was deaf and blind due to a disease that she had at a very young age, and because of that she couldn't talk. Thanks to Anna Sullivan she learned how to talk, read and write. She graduated with honors from college.
