9 . 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

For most of us, watching a movie is a pretty common thing to do. But for the blind people who can’t see, it can be very difficult. In Kunming, Yunnan Province, there is a very special theater, Xin Deng Theater (心灯影院). It’s blind-friendly.

More than 5,000 volunteers help at the Xin Deng Theater on weekends. Most of them are university students. Their job is to narrate (讲述) films to blind moviegoers. Before working, volunteers will learn how to tell of a film.

Every Saturday, volunteers will come to the bus stop to pick up the blind and take them to the Xin Deng Theater. Then all the blind will sit down to enjoy a movie together. When the movie begins, a volunteer will give lively narrations. He describes what is happening on the screen, including facial expressions (面部表情), the background and even the clothing. With the help of the narrator, the blind immerse (沉浸) themselves in the movie. They laugh when something funny happens and sigh (叹气) during sad situations.

Volunteers at the Xin Deng Theater help blind moviegoers better enjoy their theater trips. Yifan, one of the volunteers, has narrated more than 20 movies. “I could feel they were enjoying the film. I was so glad that my volunteer work could bring enjoyment to them,” he said. “I felt as though I was shining a light on their lives.”
