I agree!
In addition, IMHO, that "approved" black dictionary has done more to make 
kids phobic than anything else.  It's a nightmare for many students to find 
the translation, since the words aren't lined up.  I have a variety of 
easier dictionaries for my students to use, and after they get used to 
them, then they're willing to use the black one.  Also, now since even a 3 
point student is expected to write a composition,  they really do need to 
learn how to use a two-way dictionary.  By properly learning how, there 
will be less mistakes.
