班克斯敦200-___年9月24日

親愛(ài)的桑達(dá)斯女今天我從報(bào)上了解到您將成為班克斯敦新影院的建筑設(shè)計(jì)師。我希望您不介意我寫(xiě)信詢問(wèn)您是否已考慮到殘疾顧客的需要。尤其是以下幾點(diǎn)不知您是否考慮到了:Adequate['?d?kw?t]adj.充足的；適當(dāng)?shù)?；勝任的access['?kses]forwheelchairs['wi?lt?e?]n.輪椅.Itwouldbehandy['h?nd?]tohavelifts[l?ft]toallpartsofthecinema.Thebuttons[b?t?ns]n.[電]按鈕〔button的復(fù)數(shù)形式〕；紐扣intheliftsshouldbeeasyforapersoninawheelchairtoreach,andthedoorsbewideenoughtoenter.Insomecinemas,theliftsareatthebackofthecinemaincold,unattractive[?n?'tr?kt?v]adj.不吸引人注意的；沒(méi)有魅力的；不美麗的places.Asdisabledpeoplehavetousethelifts,thismakesthemfeeltheyarenotasimportantasothercustomers.access['?kses]n.進(jìn)入；使用權(quán)；通路vt.使用；存??；接近handy['h?nd?]adj.便利的；手邊的，就近的；容易取得的；敏捷的n.(Handy)人名；(英)漢迪..可編輯版可編輯版.可編輯版lift[l?ft]n.電梯；舉起；起重機(jī)；搭車vt.舉起；提升；鼓舞；空運(yùn)；抄襲vi.消散；升起；聳立1為乘坐輪椅的人進(jìn)入電影院提供充分的便利。影院內(nèi)的各個(gè)局部都安裝電梯就會(huì)很方便。電梯的按鈕應(yīng)當(dāng)讓乘坐輪椅的人容易夠到電梯門應(yīng)足夠?qū)?。在有些電影院里殘疾人專用電梯設(shè)在影院背后陰冷而不顯眼的地方。由于殘疾人必須要使用這些電梯這就使殘疾人感到比別的觀眾低一等。Earphones['?rfonz]n.[電訊]耳機(jī)〔earphone的復(fù)數(shù)〕forpeoplewhohavetroublehearing.Itwouldhelptofit[f?t]setsofearphonestoallseats,notjust不僅僅；不只是tosomeofthem.Thiswouldallowhearing-impaired['hi?ri?,im'pε?d]adj.聽(tīng)力受損的customerstoenjoythecompanyoftheirhearingfriendsratherthanhavingtositinaspecialarea.fit[f?t]n.合身；發(fā)作；痙攣adj.健康的；適宜的；恰當(dāng)?shù)模粶?zhǔn)備好的vt.安裝；使……適應(yīng)；使……合身；與……相符vi.符合，配合；適合；合身n.(Fit)人名；(捷、羅)菲特impair[?m'pe?]vt.損害；削弱；減少2.給聽(tīng)力有障礙的人提供耳機(jī)。所有座位的旁邊都裝有耳機(jī)而不是少數(shù)幾個(gè)座位那會(huì)有幫助。這樣可以使那些聽(tīng)力有缺陷的觀眾和那些聽(tīng)力正常的朋友坐在一起欣賞而不是讓前者坐在一個(gè)特定的區(qū)域。Raised[re?zd]seating.Peoplewhoareshortcannotalwaysseethescreen.SoI’dliketosuggestthattheseatsatthebackbeplacedhigherthanthoseatthefront在前面；在前線sothateveryonecanseethescreeneasily.Perhaps[p?'h?ps]n.假定；猜想；未定之事adv.也許；可能therecouldbeaspaceattheendof在……盡頭；在……結(jié)束時(shí)eachrowforpeopleinwheelchairstositnexttotheirfriends.raised[re?zd]adj.凸起的；發(fā)酵的；浮雕的v.提高〔raise的過(guò)去時(shí)和過(guò)去分詞〕；舉起；撫育，撫養(yǎng)row[r??]n.行，排；劃船；街道；吵鬧vi.劃船；爭(zhēng)吵vt.劃船；使……成排n.(Row)人名；(英)羅hap[h?p]n.時(shí)機(jī)，運(yùn)氣；偶然vi.偶然發(fā)生n.(Hap)人名；(柬)哈；(中)洽(廣東話·威妥瑪)happy['h?p?]adj.幸福的；快樂(lè)的；巧妙的n.(Happy)人名；(英、瑞典、喀)哈皮happen['h?p(?)n]vi.發(fā)生；碰巧；偶然遇到3.抬高座位。身體矮小的人常?？床坏狡聊?。所以我想建議影院后排的座位應(yīng)該比前排的高這樣每個(gè)人都能很容易地看到屏幕。也許可以在每一排的排尾都留出空位以便坐輪椅的人坐在他們的朋友旁邊。Toilets[?t??l?t].Fordisabledcustomersitwouldbemoreconvenient[k?n'vi?n??nt]adj.方便的；[廢語(yǔ)]適當(dāng)?shù)?；[口語(yǔ)]近便的；實(shí)用的toplacethetoiletsneartheentrance['entr(?)ns]n.入口；進(jìn)入vt.使出神，使入迷tothecinema.Itcanbedifficultiftheonlydisabledtoiletisinthebasement['be?sm(?)nt]n.地下室；地窖a(bǔ)longwayfromwherethefilmisshowing.Andifthedoorscouldbeopenedoutwards，disabledcustomerswouldbeveryhappy...可編輯版可編輯版.可編輯版toilet[?t??l?t]n.廁所，盥洗室；梳妝，打扮vt.給…梳妝打扮vi.梳妝，打扮4.廁所。在影院入口處的附近安排廁所會(huì)讓殘疾人感覺(jué)更加方便。只在離放映大廳很遠(yuǎn)的地下室為殘疾人安排一個(gè)廁所這種作法會(huì)給他們帶來(lái)麻煩。如果廁所的門能設(shè)計(jì)成向外開(kāi)殘疾人會(huì)很快樂(lè)。Carparking['pɑ?k??].Ofcourse,thereareusuallyspacesspeciallyreserved[r?'z??v]for為…而保存disabledandelderly['eld?l?]adj.上了年紀(jì)的；過(guò)了中年的；稍老的drivers.Iftheyarecloseto接近于…thecinemaentranceand/orexit,itiseasierfordisabledpeopletogettothefilmincomfort['k?mf?t]n.撫慰；舒適；撫慰者vt.撫慰；使〔痛苦等〕緩和.parking['pɑ?k??]n.停車adj.停車的v.停車〔park的ing形式〕n.(Parking)人名；(英)帕金space[spe?s]n.空間；太空；距離vt.隔開(kāi)vi.留間隔reserve[r?'z??v]n.儲(chǔ)藏，儲(chǔ)存；自然保護(hù)區(qū)；預(yù)備隊(duì)；緘默；[金融]儲(chǔ)藏金vt.儲(chǔ)藏；保存；預(yù)約vi.預(yù)訂n.(Reserve)人名；(法)勒塞爾夫exit['eks?t;'egz?t]n.出口，通道；退場(chǎng)vi.退出；離去5.停車場(chǎng)。當(dāng)然還得專門為殘疾司機(jī)和老年司機(jī)安排停車場(chǎng)。如果這些停車場(chǎng)離影院出入口都很近殘疾人就會(huì)很輕松地到達(dá)影院。Thankyouforreadingmyletter.Ihopemysuggestionswillmeetwith符合；偶然遇見(jiàn)；遭受yourapproval[?'pru?v(?)l]n.批準(zhǔn)；認(rèn)可；贊成.Disabledpeopleshouldhavethesameopportunities[,?p?'tju:nitiz]n.因素；時(shí)機(jī)；[數(shù)]機(jī)遇asable–bodiedpeopletoenjoythecinemaandtodosowithdignity['d?gn?t?]n.尊嚴(yán)；高貴.Iamsuremanypeoplewillpraiseyourcinemaifyoudesignitwithgoodaccessfordisabledpeople.Itwillalsomakethecinemaownershappyifmorepeoplegoastheywillmakehigherprofits['pr?f?t]!Yourssincerely[s?n's??l?]adv.真誠(chéng)地；由衷地，誠(chéng)懇地,AliceMajormeet[mi?t]n.集會(huì)vt.滿足；遇見(jiàn)；對(duì)付adj.適宜的；適宜的vi.相遇；接觸n.(Meet)人名；(英)米特bodied['b?d?d]adj.有形的；有軀體的v.賦…以形體；表達(dá)〔body的過(guò)去分詞〕praise[pre?z]vt.贊美，歌頌；表?yè)P(yáng)vi.贊美；贊揚(yáng)n.贊揚(yáng)；稱贊；榮耀；崇拜profit['pr?f?t]n.利潤(rùn)；利益vt.有益于vi.獲利；有益n.(Profit)人名；(法)普羅菲感謝您閱讀我的信希望您能贊成我的建議。殘疾人應(yīng)當(dāng)和健全人有同樣的時(shí)機(jī)來(lái)欣賞電影同時(shí)能保持自己的尊嚴(yán)。如果您設(shè)計(jì)的電影院能夠?yàn)闅埣踩颂峁┓奖隳敲次蚁嘈旁S多人都會(huì)夸獎(jiǎng)您的電影院而且電影院的老板也會(huì)快樂(lè)因?yàn)橛懈嗟娜四軌蛉タ措娪傲怂麄兙湍苜嵏嗟腻X了。..可編輯版可編輯版.可編輯版此致敬禮愛(ài)麗斯·梅杰Reading3ZHANGYUNCHENGACHIEVESHISAMBITIONAttheageof25,ZhangYunchengachieved[?'t?i?vd]hisambitiontowriteandpublishabook.Havingabookpublishedisagreatachievementforanyone,butZhangYuncheng’ssuccessisparticularly[p?'t?kj?l?l?]special['spe?(?)l].Yunchengwenttoschoolforonlyonedayandhedidnotstartlearningtoreaduntilhewas12yearsold.Evenmoreamazing,everycharactertheyoungauthor['??θ?]writescauseshimpain[pe?n].achieved[?'t?i?vd]v.取得，獲得；完成〔achieve的過(guò)去式〕adj.取得的；完成的achieve[?'t?i?v]vt.取得；獲得；實(shí)現(xiàn)；成功vi.
