【題目】

One day, there was a blind man called John sitting on the bench with a hat by his feet and a sign that read: “I am blind. Please help me.”

A creative publicist（廣告員） named Tom was walking by the blind man and stopped to see that the man only had a few coins in his hat. He put a few of his own coins in the hat. Without asking for permission, he took the sign, turned it around and wrote a new message. Then he put the sign by the feet of the blind man, and left.

Later that afternoon the publicist returned to the blind man and noticed that his hat was almost full of bills and coins. The blind man recognised（識別） his footsteps and asked if it was he who had changed his sign. He also wanted to know what the man wrote on it.

The publicist said, “I just wrote the message a little differently.” He smiled and went on his way.

【題目】A Man of Vision(視覺)

In 1809, Louis Braille was born in a small town in France.When he was three years old, he accidentally hurt one of his eyes.The sickness spread to his other eye. Later, Louiswas unable to see.

Louis’s parents took him out of schooltwo years later. They thought that there was nothing more for him to learn there. He could not read or write.

When he was ten years old, Louis’s parents sent him to a special school inParis. It was one of the first schools for blind people in the world. Louis learned many skills at this school. Oneof them was reading.

Back then, blind people read by feeling raised letters on the paper. But it was difficult. Too many letters felt the same, for they had similar shapes.

Louis wantedto find a better way for blind people to read. He tried to create a touch system for reading and writing. He believed a system of raised dot（小點(diǎn)）could help. Night Writing-a writing system for soldiers was used. But he didn’t think it was good enough. This system did not allow the fingertip（指尖）to cover a whole letter. The readers had to move their fingers to feel theletter.

After years of hard work, he invented a shorter, easier form of this touch system. He used six dots to form each letter. It allowed a personto feel a whole letter without moving. Blind people could read much faster and easier.

Today, we call this form of written language Braillein honour of Louis Braille.

Louis died in 1852. However, his form of communication lives on. Though he became blind at a young age,he insisted a lot. Instead, he overcame the difficulty, and madea big difference.

【1】 When Louis was three years old, he __________.

A. was sent to a special school

【2】For blind people, feeling raised letters on the paper was difficult because _________.

A. they neededto learn special skills

A. slower B.easier C. harder D. louder

B. Be friendly with our friends.

C. Never give up and work hard.
