What is the best-selling book in the world? Is it the Harry Potter series or Secret Garden? According to the Guinness World Records, the Xinhua Dictionary, published（出版） by the Commercial Press in China, is the world’s most popular dictionary and the best-selling book.

In 1950, Chinese language experts(專家) and scholars, Wei Jiangong and Ye Shengtao, started to edit(編輯) the Xinhua Dictionary. There was a lot of discussion, research and paper work. Some hand scripts (稿件) were checked again and again like compositions, People’s Daily reported. Many people’s hard work and interesting stories went into making the dictionary.

In 1953, the first Xinhua Dictionary was published. Today, 567 million copies of the dictionary have been sold worldwide.

However, revisions (修訂) to the dictionary continue to be made. According to Yu Guilin from Commercial Press, editors(編輯) usually summarize (總結) the meaning of words again while revising.So far, the Xinhua Dictionary has been revised 11 times.

To keep up with the times, some popular and widely used internet words are also added to the dictionary. For example, in the 11th edition, the phrases “曬工資 (show off salary)” and “曬照片 (show off pictures)” were included.

All these efforts create the “National Dictionary” of China. The Xinhua Dictionary is not only a useful tool for generations of Chinese people. It also helps foreigners who are learning the Chinese language and culture.

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: “I am blind, please help.” There were only a few coins in the hat. A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words. Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps(腳步) and asked: “Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?” The man said: “I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.” What he had written was: “Today is a beautiful day but I cannot see it.”

Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing? Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat. The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind. The first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign reminded people they were lucky that they were not blind.

There are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story. The first is: Be thankful for what you have. Someone else has less. Help where you can. The second is: Be creative. Think differently. There is always a better way!

1.What did the boy do on the street?

A. He sold his old hat. B. He begged (乞討) for money.

C. He was busy collecting coins. D. He showed his good handwriting.

2.The blind boy recognized the man by his _______.

A. words B. voice C. footsteps D. figure

3.What he had written was: “Today is a beautiful day, but I cannot see it .” “it” refers to _______.

A. The word on the sign B. the money in the hat

C. the step of a building D. the beautiful day

4.The man who helped the blind boy must be________.

A. Polite and patient B. honest and humorous C. kind and creative D. careful and rich

5.The best title for the passage should be ________.

A. A man who helped a boy B. A blind boy in the street

C. Let’s help the disabled people D. Different words make a difference
