Have you any idea what a disabled elevator is? Or a racist park? A door that may not be used in peace time? A deformed man toilet?
No? Great. This means that your English is much better than those of many Chinese. The expressions I mentioned above are not made up, they are used in China. Or, were used, because all of them will be changed due to the Olympic games.
So, let us solve the mistery: a disabled elevator, of course, is an elevator for disabled people.
A deformed man toilet is a toilet for disabled people.
A door that may not be used in peace time is................................. an emergency exit. Great, isn't it?
And the racist park will be renamed into Park of Ethnic Minorities, which will erase a lot of misconceptions...
