Truth or Dare

I enjoy playing the game Truth or Dare①truth or dare 真心话大冒险.

There were two dares given to two kids stick out②stick out 突出；坚持；醒目in my mind. The first involves a trip to the emergency room. The second involves a strong dose③dose 英 ［dəʊs］ 美 ［dos］ n. 剂量；一剂，一服 vi. 服药 vt. 给药；给……服药of discipline.

At a party， many years ago， my friends and I played "Truth or Dare." At first， the truths and dares were pretty tame （Tell us who your crush is. I dare you to take off your shoes and smell them.）.

However， as the game progressed， so did the intensity④intensity 英 ［ɪn'tensɪtɪ］ 美 ［ɪn'tɛnsəti］ n. 强度；强烈；［电子］ 亮度；紧张of the questions and commands. One of the girls had brought along her new boyfriend. She dared him to drink a bottle of hot sauce. Now，this wasn't any usual hot sauce. The hostess's father collected hot sauces as a hobby. This bottle was taken from a definite "Look， but don't ingest⑤ingest 英 ［ɪn'dʒest］ 美 ［ɪn'dʒɛst］ vt. 摄取；咽下；吸收；接待" stock.

From the look on his face when the first drop hit his tongue， it was evident he wanted to cry.Still， he drank down the whole bottle， his girlfriend cheering him on.

The second dare took place at my former high school. A group of us was sitting in the chorus room， waiting for our rehearsal⑩rehearsal 英 ［rɪ'hɜːs（ə）l］ 美 ［rɪ'hɝsl］ n. 排演；预演；练习；训练；叙述to start. Realizing that our choir director was on the phone and how long he usually remained on it， we decided to play "Truth or Dare." Now， there was this extremely energetic， borderline mentally challenged boy in the group. A couple of us whispered to each other that we didn't think it would be a good idea to let him play. However， not wanting to make him feel left out， the other members of the group invited him into the game.

When it was his turn to ask or command someone， he would come up with something truly embarrassing. Though we tried to make it so that he didn't get to ask or command this one kid， it ended up happening. He dared this kid to run around the school， screaming that there was a fire. Wanting desperately to fit in， he did just that. Our high school consists of two buildings， four floors each. He screamed so loud that we could hear him in the other building. Suddenly， we couldn't hear him anymore，but then we could.

Despite these two situations， I still enjoy playing this game. Under the right circumstances and played with the right people， it can make for a fun time. However， too often， people go too far. Quite suddenly，a game of "Truth or Dare can turn into "Torture or Destruction."

我很喜欢玩“真心话大冒险”这个游戏。

曾经有两个孩子的大冒险给我留下了很深的印象：第一个大冒险将人送进急救室，第二个大冒险带来了严厉的惩罚。

许多年前，我和朋友们在一个派对上玩“真心话大冒险”。一开始，真心话和大冒险还比较温和（告诉我们你暗恋谁；我敢说，你不敢脱下鞋子来闻一闻。）。

不过，随着游戏进行下去，问题变得越来越尖锐，命令也越来越难办了。其中一个女孩带来了她的新男友。她让他干了一瓶辣椒酱。这可不是一般的辣椒酱。派对主人家的父亲喜欢收集辣椒酱。这一瓶是从一个显然“可看不可吃”的架子上拿下来的。作为一个骄傲自信的小男孩，他接受了这个挑战，扭开了瓶盖。当第一口辣椒酱落在男孩的舌头上时，从他脸上的表情就能看出他很想哭。尽管如此，在女朋友的打气下，他还是干了整瓶辣椒酱。一喝完没多久，他便弯下腰吐了起来，大吐特吐。

第二个大冒险（事故）发生在我先前那所高中。我们一群人坐在合唱室里，等着排练开始。我们发现合唱团指挥正在打电话，鉴于他向来一聊电话就说个没完，我们决定玩“真心话大冒险”。我们当中有这么一个男生，精力异常旺盛，总想挑战极限。我和另外一个人低声交谈，都觉得让他玩这游戏不是个好主意。不过，因为不想让这男生觉得自己受到排挤，其他人还是将他拉过来一起玩了。

我们当中另外一个男生是个浑蛋，特喜欢害人以及闹腾捣乱。轮到他提问题或者下命令时，他总会说出一些让人非常尴尬的话。虽然我们在玩游戏时尽量不让他有机会向之前那个男生提问题或者下命令，事情还是不可避免地发生了。他让那个男生围着学校跑一圈，一边跑一边叫“失火啦”。后者实在太想融入集体，便真的照做了。我们的高中有两栋教学楼，每栋都是四层楼高。那个男生嚷得太起劲了，我们都能听见他在另外一栋楼的叫声。他的声音突然消失了，过了一会儿又响了起来。他被一个保安押回合唱室，哭着恳求保安不要处罚他。尽管这名保安搞清楚情况后只是让我们的指挥看好他的学生，另外一名保安听说了这件事，却并不是那么通情达理。这个男生最后被勒令停学，由父母带走。至于那个让他大冒险的家伙？合唱团指挥对搞事分子处以罚款，但他一直没有领罚交钱。

尽管有这两次意外，我还是挺喜欢这个游戏。在合宜的情况下与合适的人一起玩，它能让人乐呵一把。不过，人们总是常常玩出火。于是突然之间，一个“真心话大冒险”就会变成“折磨话大坏事”了。
