How to post such a table to my post for other people to read it easily? Seems there has no such kind of “insert table” button in the post function when I’m writing my blog…
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

WordPress.com does support tables, but there’s no graphical interface for doing so. You have to manually put in the HTML code. Here’s the advanced HTML guide which covers table creation. http://en.support.wordpress.com/advanced-html/
Also, since you’re posting from Word, let me include this link too as there can be some issues when pasting from Word with the formatting: http://en.support.wordpress.com/microsoft-word/

http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2008/03/31/how-to-make-html-tables-for-your-wordpress-blog/There are also online table generators, but in my experience their coding is most likely out-dated and might cause problems. This link might be useful if you use Windows: (and it’s free)
