Have you ever wondered how blind people read? Thanks to a system invented by Louis Braille, blind people
can learn to use their fingers to read.
In 1809, Braille was born in a small town in France. 1 Later, his other eye was infected, resulting in
complete blindness. His blindness inspired him to become an inventor who made contributions to all blind people.
When Braille was ten years old, his parents sent him to a special school for blind students. Braille learned
how to read at this school. He was first taught to read by feeling raised letters on paper. 2 Too many letters felt
the same, for they had similar shapes.
Then, in 1821, Braille heard about a night-reading code system. It was a 12-dot (12 凸点)system that was
created for night-time communication between soldiers. However, this system didn’t allow the fingertip to cover a
whole letter. The readers had to move their fingers to feel the letters. 3
Three years later, Braille developed a shorter and simpler touch system based on the night-reading code
system. He used six raised dots with different combinations (组合) to stand for each letter. 4 Blind people
could read much faster and more easily.
Braille died in 1852, but his touch system lives on. 5
A．It allowed a blind person to feel a whole letter without moving his or her finger.

Have you heard of Deng Jiaxian? Perhaps he may not be well-known to you, but he is very important to
China.
Deng Jiaxian was born in Huaining, Anhui Province on June 25, 1924. He entered the Physics Department of
Southwest Associated University in 1941. After graduating in 1945, he taught in middle schools and later in the
Physics Department of Peking University. In 1948, he was admitted to (被获准进入) the Graduate School of
Purdue University in the United States and received a PhD in physics two years later.
Nine days after he got his doctoral degree, he stepped onto the ship back to China and started his creative
nuclear theoretical (理论的) research. Deng Jiaxian set up classes, giving lessons himself and organized people to
translate and study related foreign language materials. At the same time, he never gave up on his ideas regarding
the main direction of atomic bomb (原子弹) development. Following the successful test of the atomic bomb, Deng
and his team joined the research group led by Yu Min in 1965 and immediately started designing the hydrogen
bomb (氢弹).
Within no more than one year, the Deng-Yu Project was submitted (提交), which greatly accelerated China’s
hydrogen bomb development and realization. In nuclear experiments, Deng always stood in the front line and never
made his colleagues do the dangerous work for him. Unfortunately, he got radiation (辐射) sickness in the early
1980s. However, although he was sick, he still continued to work.
