The following question has two parts. Answer Part A first, and then Part B.

at first view Miss Sullivan’s efforts to spell words into her hand?

as an annoying interruption
as an amusing activity
Question 2 (2 points)
Part B Which of the following sentences from The Story of My Life best
supports the answer to Part A?
Question 2 options:
I was at once interested in this finger play and tried to imitate it.
One day, while I was playing with my new doll, Miss Sullivan put my big
rag doll into my lap also, spelled “d-o-l-l” and tried to make me understand
that “d-o-l-l” applied to both.
Earlier in the day we had had a tussle over the words “m-u-g” and
“w-a-t-e-r.”
I became impatient at her repeated attempts and, seizing the new doll, I
dashed it upon the floor.
Question 3 (2 points)
The following question has two parts. Answer Part A first, and
then Part B.
Part A In the selection from The Story of My Life, what personal quality is
most responsible for Keller’s success in learning to use words?
Question 3 options:
enthusiasm
compassion
impatience
humor
Question 4 (2 points)
Part B Which of the following excerpts from The Story of My Life best
supports the answer to Part A?
Question 4 options:
I did not know that I was spelling a word or even that words existed; I was
simply making my fingers go in monkey-like imitation.
Miss Sullivan had tried to impress it upon me that “m-u-g” is mug and that
“w-a-t-e-r” is water, but I persisted in confounding the two.
As the cool stream gushed over one hand she spelled into the other the
word water, first slowly, then rapidly.
I left the well-house eager to learn. Everything had a name, and each name gave birth to a new thought.
