Point of View in Helen Keller's Memoir, The Story of My Life

Question 5 • SS-English Language Arts 7

What will the readers experience in a biographical play about Helen Keller that they will not experience in Helen Keller’s memoir?

Answer
A
The readers will read about real events from Helen Keller’s life rather than fictional events.
B
The readers will read about completely fictional events rather than real events from Helen Keller’s life.
C
The readers will learn about an event through Helen Keller’s perspective, not an outsider’s.
D
The readers will learn about an event through an outsider’s perspective, not Helen Keller’s.

Explanation

A memoir is written from the author’s own perspective, so Helen Keller’s memoir presents events as she experienced them. A biographical play portrays Keller’s life from the perspective of someone outside her, which readers would not experience in her memoir. Therefore, the correct choice is “The readers will learn about an event through an outsider’s perspective, not Helen Keller’s.”
