The game has entertained people for more than 100 years.
Whether alone or with family and friends, people enjoy solving crossword puzzles. It can be a satisfying and relaxing way to spend time. In fact, they have a longer history than some people might know.
The first crossword puzzle was called “FUN’s Word-Cross Puzzle.” It was created for the New York World newspaper in December 1913. A few weeks later, the newspaper changed the name of the puzzle to “Cross-Word” by accident . Then, the game became even more popular after World War I. Many other newspapers also started to print crossword puzzles, except for the New York Times . They refused to print puzzles because they thought serious newspapers shouldn’t contain games and that they did not need crossword puzzles to attract readers.
During World War II, their view changed. However, the New York Times didn’t want to just add a puzzle. They wanted to have the best puzzles. In 1942, they hired Margaret Farrar, a former editor of crosswords for the New York World . She helped the New York Times become the best place to play crossword puzzles, and its reputation still holds today. Farrar also developed many game rules that continue to be followed by crossword puzzle makers around the world.

Tips in Use 重點解析
♦介紹 whether... or... 的用法
1. 副詞連接詞 whether 表「不論、不管」，與 or 連用，引導副詞子句修飾主要子句，表示無論是哪種可能性，結果都一樣，句型如下：
Whether... or..., S + V 無論是⋯⋯或是⋯⋯，⋯⋯
例： Whether it is a school day or holiday, Teddy always gets up early.
不管是上學或假日，泰迪都習慣早起。
2. whether 子句的結構為「主詞 + be 動詞...」，而且子句中的主詞與主要子句的主詞相同時，可將該主詞及 be 動
詞省略。
例：Whether you are interested or not, you haveto attend this meeting.
= Whether interested or not, you have toattend this meeting.
不管你有沒有興趣，你都得參加這場會議。
本文第一段第一句即為此用法，可還原如下：
Whether people are alone or with family and friends, people enjoy solving crossword puzzles.

這款遊戲已娛樂人們一百多年。
無論是獨自一人還是與家人朋友一起，人們都喜歡解謎填字遊戲。這可以是一種令人滿足又放鬆的消磨時間的方式。事實上，它們的歷史可能比某些人知道的還要悠久。
第一個填字遊戲被稱為「FUN’s Word-Cross Puzzle」。它是1913 年十二月為《紐約世界報》所創造的。幾週後，該報無意間將填字遊戲的名稱改為「Cross-Word」。接著，第一次世界大戰後該遊戲變得更加流行。其他許多報紙也開始印刷填字遊戲，除了《紐約時報》以外。他們拒絕印刷填字遊戲是因為他們認為嚴肅的報紙不應該包含遊戲，而且他們並不需要填字遊戲來吸引讀者。
第二次世界大戰期間，他們的看法改變了。然而，《紐約時報》並不只是想添加一個填字遊戲而已。他們想要最好的謎題。1942 年，他們聘請了《紐約世界報》前填字遊戲編輯瑪格麗特．法拉爾。她幫助《紐約時報》成為玩填字遊戲的最佳選擇，其聲譽至今仍保持不變。法拉爾還制定了許多遊戲規則，並繼續被世界各地的填字遊戲作者所遵循。
