Read the excerpt from story of my life by helen keller. my aunt made me a big doll out of towels. it was the most comical shapeless thing, this improvised doll, with no nose, mouth, ears or eyes—nothing that even the imagination of a child could convert into a face. curiously enough, the absence of eyes struck me more than all the other defects put together. i pointed this out to everybody with provoking persistency, but no one seemed equal to the task of providing the doll with eyes. a bright idea, however, shot into my mind, and the problem was solved. i tumbled off the seat and searched under it until i found my aunt's cape, which was trimmed with large beads. i pulled two beads off and indicated to her that i wanted her to sew them on my doll. she raised my hand to her eyes in a questioning way, and i nodded energetically. the beads were sewed in the right place and i could not contain myself for joy; but immediately i lost all interest in the doll. which line from the excerpt is an important detail that would be included in a summary of the excerpt?
a. it was the most comical shapeless thing

the answer to "what does the narrator realize by the end of the story" is b.

explanation:

the intellectual community is a place like a university where people with high marks, or original thought or an outstanding interest in something gather. they take classes together. they discuss things. they argue sometimes, and not always in a friendly way. but if they argue, it is because they are passionate about something, and there is nothing the matter with that.

lately i've been hearing rumors that it is not the way it was when i went to school. the one thing all schools used to have was free speech. the 1st amendment rights were sacred. now i'm hearing they are not. students can be reported and disciplined for giving an off the wall opinion.

that is shameful.

intellectual ideas are meant to be discussed. they are meant to be chewed up and worked on. that is the primary responsibility of every intellectual community. if that is not the way it is, then that is not a school to go to.

social media, in my opinion, and this is just an opinion. i wouldn't take it too seriously, complicates everything to do with human communication. you can want to share things and others feel they have the right to be very critical or sarcastic or mean about what you share. lack of respect is an immeasurable intolerable condition and social media abounds with that sort of thing.

one of the things i really like about is how careful people are because they must have some idea that the mods are exactly what the word says they are. they police this board very well, and what is so remarkable about them is that they are no older than the average grade 12 student.

my hat goes off to them (which means i respect them quite a bit).

for me this my answer o fortunately, they did not notice, and i could pretend not to care.​   i hope this you
