Pocahontas was a daughter of a Native American chief who lived in Virginia. The story has been told that John Smith had made friends with the chief's twelve-year-old daughter Pocahontas. Later John Smith was captured by Native Americans. Just as he was to be killed by a stone war club in the hand of the chief, Pocahontas ran to him, placed her head on his, and begged her father not to kill him.

During that time she fell in love with John Rolfe, who was also on the ship. John was an early English settler of Jamestown, Virginia. They were married two years later.

Read the article "Overcoming Difficulties: How Helen Keller Learned to Communicate" and answer the question.

Every day, millions of people worldwide use their mouths to speak, their ears to hear, and their eyes to see. However, not all people have those abilities. Some are born without the ability to speak, see, or hear. Others lose one or all of these abilities due to illness or accident. Not being able to communicate can be a major obstacle, but people who overcome these challenges are often determined, resourceful, and dedicated to helping others. Instead, people who have to overcome these challenges are often determined, resourceful, and dedicated to helping others.

A Great Teacher

One person who did not allow her disability to limit her was Helen Keller. Keller, who became blind and deaf at the age of one and a half due to illness, learned at a very young age that her life was going to be different. As a child in the late 1800s, she did not have access to the technology we have today that assists people with disabilities in their daily lives. Instead, she had a very dedicated and creative teacher who stuck with Keller throughout her life. This teacher's name was Anne Sullivan. As a result of Sullivan's dedication and Keller's own determination, she learned when many thought she could not.

Learning How to Communicate

Sullivan helped her learn to communicate by using the resources and abilities Keller did have. Keller could touch, taste, and smell. Sullivan taught her to associate hand movements with words. She would spell words on Keller's hand while having her touch the related object. By associating a physical object with the hand movements, Helen learned the meaning of countless words. Learning to speak was tackled in a similar way. By feeling lips as they moved, Keller learned how to use her lips to form words. Using such innovative techniques and the resources available to her opened whole new worlds for Keller's learning. Sullivan encouraged and mentored Keller, never letting her give up and always believing the best for her.

An Inspiration to Others

Another way Keller learned to communicate was through writing. As an adult, she attended Radcliffe College, which allowed her to advance her education, even though many people doubted her ability to be successful. While she was there, she wrote her autobiography, which told the world about her struggles and accomplishments. She was able to share her story through Braille, a form of writing using raised dots felt with the fingers. Throughout her entire college career, Anne Sullivan was beside her, encouraging Keller and interpreting the words she could not see and the sounds she could not hear. Helen Keller's perseverance and Anne Sullivan's dedication became an inspiration for many children and adults around the world.

Helen Keller went on to be a successful author and teacher. She became a mentor to other children and adults living with disabilities. To this day, Keller is remembered for her determination, resourcefulness, and dedication that helped her to overcome obstacles and inspire others.

Which details best support the claim that Keller learned to communicate successfully?

A She eventually became a traveling motivational speaker.
B She went to college and wrote her own autobiography.
C She helped to develop modern American Sign Language.
D She was a favorite playmate among the neighbor children.

LITERARY ANALYSIS: Where are you from? seems like a question with an obvious answer, but the answer is clearly more complicated according to the essay's author, Naomi Sepiso. How does Sepiso respond to this question? What supporting evidence does she include to develop her controlling idea? Write a RACECECE response in which you are using 3 pieces of evidence from the essay to support your analysis.


story: ‘So where are you from?’ They always asked that question; a subtle reminder that she was not one of them.


‘What do you mean?’ she asked. They only asked that question when they were afraid of placing her into a box. As though they were giving her the option of which box she wanted to climb into.


‘Well… you’re obviously not from here… I mean… you live here, but where are you from… like, originally?’


There it was. Originally. The word suggesting that she cannot validate her sense of belonging to this place. The implication being that her ‘exotic’ genetic makeup excludes her from her right to belong to this land.


She gave the long pre-rehearsed answer they often dug for. They love a good story. She told them where her mother came from, where her father came from. She told them how her parents met in a land far from their own where she was born. She told them of how they moved around from town to town and across the ocean to a place that sometimes felt like ‘home’. They smiled. Happy endings always leave a crowd feeling good.


What she doesn’t tell them is how she feels her pre-rehearsed response drag up her throat, as though she didn’t pick the right words from those that whirl at the bottom of her stomach in response. She doesn’t tell them that being born out of her mother’s country makes her a foreigner to a land she could have called home. Or that her official documents are marked with the Coat of Arms of a land she never felt safe in. That she cannot have conversations with the grandparents she has not seen in years because her tongue will always stumble over the nuances of languages that never fit quite right.


Sometimes she felt tired of being watered down to belonging to a foreign location on a map. To being a friend that made someone else a little more ‘cultured’ by simple association. As though everything else she had to offer became lacking in value every time someone asked her the question.


She was not someone from a place. She made a home of kind words and warm feelings. Her soul became a safe nest deep inside the confines of her body.


‘What is the value of a land I come from. We are all of this land. We came the same way and we leave the same way.’ By the time the words fought their way out of her mouth everyone else had moved on.


One day they would come to understand, she thought. She was not the land of her mother and father. She was her own country, with her own history of civil wars, revolutions, healing and growth. One day they would learn to keep their boxes away from her. One day they would see that she will never, ever, fit.
