Question

which question would best prepare you to read the text for the purpose of understanding its ideas about identity?
where and in what year was keller born?
what kinds of things did keller like to lecture about?
how does helen keller feel as she learns how to communicate?
what are the typical characteristics of personal narrative writing?

Explanation:

To understand a text's ideas about identity, we need a question related to the subject's (Helen Keller) self - perception or emotional/experiential journey related to self. The question "How does Helen Keller feel as she learns how to communicate?" relates to her development of self - understanding and identity through communication. The first option is about Keller's birth, the second about her lecture topics, and the fourth about personal narrative writing, none of which relate to identity as directly as the third option.

Answer:

C. How does Helen Keller feel as she learns how to communicate?
