2、Bankstown cinema. I hope you will not mind me writing to ask if you have thought about the needs of disabled customers. In particular I wonder if you have considered the following things：1 Adequate access for wheelchairs. It would be handy to have lifts to all parts of the cinema. The buttons in the

3、 lifts should be easy for a person in a wheelchair to reach, and the doors be wide enough to enter. In some cinemas, the lifts are at the back of the cinema in cold, unattractive places. As disabled people have to use the lifts, this makes them feel they are not as important as other customers.2 Ear

4、phones for people who have trouble hearing . It would help to fit sets of earphones to all seats, not just to some of them. This would allow hearing­impaired customers to enjoy the company of their hearing friends rather than having to sit in a special area.architect /'kItekt/ n建筑師be不定式，此處表

8、電梯門應足夠寬以方便進入。在有些電影院里，(殘疾人專用)電梯設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。2給聽力有障礙的人提供耳機。所有座位的旁邊都裝有耳機，而不是少數幾個座位，那會有幫助。這樣可以使那些聽力有缺陷的觀眾和他們聽力正常的朋友坐在一起，而不是讓他們坐在一個特定的區域。3 Raised seating. People who are short cannot always see the screen. So I'd like to suggest that the seats at the back be placed

9、higher than those at the front so that everyone can see the screen easily. Perhaps there could be a space at the end of each row for people in wheelchairs to sit next to their friends.4 Toilets. For disabled customers it would be more convenient to place the toilets near the entrance to the cinema.

10、It can be difficult if the only disabled toilet is in the basement a long way from where the film is showing. And if the doors could be opened outwards， disabled customers would be very happy.5 Car parking. Of course, there are usually spaces specially reserved for disabled and elderly drivers. If t

13、在他們的朋友旁邊。4廁所。在影院入口處的附近安排廁所會讓殘疾人感覺更加方便。只在離放映大廳很遠的地下室為殘疾人安排一個廁所，這種做法會給他們帶來麻煩。如果廁所的門能設計成向外開，殘疾人會很高興。5停車場。當然還得專門為殘疾司機和老年司機安排停車場。如果這些停車場離影院出入口或出口都很近，殘疾人就會很輕松地到達影院。Thank you for reading my letter. I hope my suggestions will meet with your approval. Disabled people should have the same opportunities as abl

14、e­bodied people to enjoy the cinema and to do so with dignity. I am sure many people will praise your cinema if you design it with good access for disabled people. It will also make the cinema owners happy if more people go as they will make higher profits！Yours sincerely，Alice Majormeet with遇到
