To what does Helen compare her life before Anne came to teach her? 15) Choose the best answer. a child in a maze a ship surrounded by a dense fog a hearth that need a fire a candle about to be lit

Helen compares her life before Anne came to teach her to "a ship surrounded by a dense fog." This metaphor beautifully conveys the confusion and isolation she felt before gaining the ability to communicate and understand the world around her. Just like a ship lost in fog, she lacked direction and clarity, making her journey through life incredibly challenging. As for the other options, while they carry meaningful imagery, they don't encapsulate her experience as powerfully as the fog analogy. Each of the comparisons holds a certain weight, but they miss the specific sense of being adrift and hindered by a lack of visibility that characterized Helen's early life.
