海伦凯勒的故事(3)
Figure 1: Helen Keller was deprived of vision and listening at the age of 19 months 1887年3月，安妮·莎莉文来到海伦家，这一天成为海伦一生最重要的一天，是她帮助海伦从一只小兽变成了人。见面之初，当海伦抓住了莎莉文送给她的洋娃娃时，莎莉文就开始在海伦掌心中拼写“DOLL(娃娃) ”，海伦跟着拼写，却并不懂这字有什么意义。一天早上，海伦照老习惯乱抓别人的饭，当她抓到莎莉文盘中的香肠时，莎莉文一把按住她的手。海伦开始发脾气，满地打滚，还和老师对打……横下心的莎莉文坚决不退让，她下决心首先要让海伦养成良好的生活习惯。三四天后，海伦的发作次数减少，她开始注意周围的事物，每天模仿老师在手上拼写一些莫名的字。两周后的一天，当海伦伸手浸在清凉的流水中时，莎莉文抓住她的手，在她湿淋淋的掌心中拼写“水”。
海伦挣扎着要抽回手，莎莉文紧握不放，一次又一次写着“水”。突然，海伦触电般停住挣扎，屏住呼吸，全神贯注地体会着手掌中的拼字。“水”从她掌心输入脑海，烙印于心。刹那间，她脸上闪耀出顿悟的光辉。原来每种东西是有名字的!
Anne Sullivan came to Helen’s house on March 3rd, 1887, the most important day in Helen’s life, because she turned her from a little beast into a human being. At their first meeting, Sullivan started to spell “Doll” on Helen’s palm when Helen caught hold of the doll she gave her as a gift, Helen followed her, in spite of the fact that she had no idea what the letters mean. One morning, Helen clawed at other people’s meals habitually, when it came on the sausage in Sullivan’s plate, she caught her hands. Then Helen began to get angry: rolling on the floor and fighting with teacher…
…the determined teacher stood fast and refused to make a concession to Helen, she made up her mind to foster Helen’s good habit. Three or four days later, the frequency of Helen’s fit decreased, she began to pay attention to things around her, and copy her teacher’s spelling of inexplicable letters on the palm everyday. Two weeks later, Sullivan seized Helen’s hand and spelled “water” in her wet palm when Helen soaked her hands in the cool water. Helen struggled to withdraw it while Sullivan refused to let it go, wrote time and again the word “water”. Suddenly, as if got an electric shock, Helen stopped to struggle, she held her breath and focused on the word on her palm. “Water” was input from her palm into the brain, and burned into her mind. For an instant her face sparkled with insight, it turns out that everything has a name!
