A

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 his 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,turns 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 and

asked, “Were you the one who changed my sign this morning?What did

you write?”The man said, “I only write the truth.I said what you siad

but in a different way.”What he had written was: “Today is a

beatuiful day but I can not 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 peolple to help by putting some money in the hat.The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the beauty of 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 told

people they were so lucky that they were not blind.Should we be surprised

that the second sign was more effective?

A. He is warm-hearted.

B. He knows the boy very well.

C.He is very clever.

D.He changes the words on the sign.
