第四課時 Writing about an experience
Activity 6: Read the passage and answer the questions.
1. Why did the author go to the “dark restaurant”
2. What difficulties did the author have during the meal
3. How did the author feel after finishing the meal
Because the author wanted to experience of being blind, thinking eating would be the most difficult activity.
The author knocked over glasses and dropped food.
The author ate much more slowly, trying to guess what was being eaten.
Pouring water was very difficult.
After failing to pick up any food with a fork for five minutes, the author decided to use hands, but stuck one hand into a bowl of warm, thick soup.
Even using a spoon, most of the soup ended up on the author's shirt.
The author left the restaurant feeling hungry, though much more aware of the challenges that blind people face.
Dining in the Dark
Recently I accompanied a friend to dine at a “dark restaurant”, where people eat in complete darkness, served by blind staff. I wanted to understand the experience of being blind, and I thought eating would be the most difficult activity.
It was a difficult meal. Because we couldn't see where anything was, my friend and I knocked over glasses and dropped food. My senses of taste and smell became more sensitive, and I ate much more slowly, trying to guess what I was eating. Pouring water was very difficult, plus I kept drinking from my friend's glass.
After failing to pick up any food with a fork for five minutes, I decided to use my hands. I reached down, expecting rice and vegetables, but instead stuck my hand into a bowl of warm, thick soup. “It's best to use a spoon for this course,” the waiter said into my ear, helpfully but much too late. Even using a spoon, I spilled most of the soup on my hirt. I felt embarrassed, even though no one could see me.
Our waiter advised us to lift the plates and bowls close to our faces. However, I still left the restaurant feeling hungry, though I was much more aware of the challenges that blind people face.

1.最近，我陪一個朋友在一家“黑暗餐廳”吃飯，在那里，人們在完全黑暗的環境中吃飯，由盲人服務。
2.我的味覺和嗅覺變得更加敏感，我吃得更慢了，試著猜我吃的是什么。
3.倒水非常困難，而且我一直從朋友的杯子里喝水。
4.五分鐘也沒能用叉子拿起任何食物之后，我決定用我的手。
5.我把手伸下去，以為是米飯和蔬菜，結果把手伸進了一碗熱乎乎的濃湯里。
6.即使用勺子，我也把大部分湯灑在了襯衫上。
7.然而，當我離開餐廳時，我仍然感到饑餓，盡管我更加意識到盲人所面臨的挑戰。
描寫一次經歷屬于以記人敘事為主要內容，以敘述為主要表達方式的文體。寫作時，要交代清楚時間、地點、人物和事件。
寫作時應注意的問題：
正確運用時態。最常用到的時態是一般過去時和過去進行時，但也要注意靈活運用其他時態。
常用第一人稱，從“參與者”角度進行敘述。
要重視句子的銜接，用好過渡詞。
話題通常和學生的生活有關、如校園生活、旅游、交通、交友等，平時要注意積累這些方面的詞匯和短語。
