But when she was nineteen months old, an attack of fever left her blind and deaf for the rest of her life. She became blind so young that as she grew old, she did not remember being able to see, and she became deaf before she had any idea of the importance of human speech. She lived in darkness and silence.As she grew old, she, too, wanted to express her ideas and feelings. But she realized that she was cut off from others.Her parents were greatly worried. How could anyone get in touch with Helens mind and intelligence in darkness and silence without speech? Helen was nearly seven when a teacher was found. Her name was Miss Sullivan.Miss Sullivan had a lot of difficulties in teaching Helen Keller. As the child could neither see nor hear, she had to use manual alphabet. But Helens energy and intelligence and strong spirit, combined with Miss Sullivans skill and patience, overcame all the difficulties. As Helen grew up, she became an able student, passed examinations and finally took an university degree in English literature. She then devoted all herself to helping the blind and the deaf.

It is sigh language.When you wave to a friend who is across the street, you are using sign language. When you smile at someone, you are saying, “I want to be friendly”, but you are not using speech. You are using sign language. When you raise your hand in class, you are saying, “Please ask me. I think I know the correct answer.”Babies who cant talk can point at things. They are using sign language. A policeman who wants to stop traffic holds up his hands. He is using sign language.Many years ago, a French priest, Charles Michel de Epee, became interested in education for deaf people. He invented a finger alphabet. It is still in use. People can make the sign for letters and spell words with their hands, and deaf people can read and understand them. Soon there were schools for the deaf in many countries. The only university for the deaf is Gallaudet College in Washington D. C.Today, in the United States, there are special TV news programs for deaf people. The newsreader tells the news in sign language. At the same time, the words appear on the TV screen.The actors in the Theatre of Deaf dont spell every word. Sometimes they use hand signs.

Gestures are the “silent language” of every culture. We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say. Its important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood.In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the others arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug(拥抱).Space is important to Americans .When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say, “Pardon me ”or “Excuse me.”Americans like to look the other person in the eyes when they are talking. If you dont do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. But when you stare at someone, it is not polite.For Americans, thumbs-up means yes, very good, or well done. Thumbs-down means the opposite. To call a waiter, raise one hand to head level or above. To show you want the check, make a movement with your hands as if you are signing a piece of paper. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger(食指).Americans shake their index finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them.Learning a cultures body language is sometimes confusing(困惑的).If you dont know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.7.
