One day, there was a blind man sitting on the steps of a building with a sign by his feet, that reads: "I am blind, please help."

一天，一位盲人坐在建筑物的台阶上，他的脚边放着一个牌子，那上面写着：“我是盲人，请帮帮我”。

A creative publicist was walking by the blind man and stopped to observe¹ that the man only had a few coins in his hat. He put a few of his own coins in the hat, and without stopping to ask for permission（征求许可） , took the sign, turned it around, and wrote a new message. He then placed the sign by the feet of the blind man, and left.

一个有创意头脑的广告员走到那位盲人身旁，他发现盲人的帽子里只有很少的一些硬币。于是没有征得盲人的同义，他就拿过牌子，将牌子调过来，写了一些字。他将牌子放到盲人的脚下然后离开了。

Later that afternoon the creative publicist returned by the blind man and noticed that his hat was almost completely² full of bills and coins. The blind man recognized³ his footsteps⁴ and asked if it was him who had changed his sign? He also wanted to know what the man wrote on it.

那天下午的晚些时候那位广告员回到盲人哪儿，发现他的帽子里装满了钞票和硬币。盲人认出了他的脚步声，问广告员是不是将他的牌子欢乐？盲人想知道牌子上写了什么。

The blind man didn't know that his new sign reads as this: "It's spring now, but I can't see it."

盲人不知道调换了面的牌子上写着：“现在是春天，但我却看不到春天。”
