参考答案

The experience I am going to tell you about happened a month ago when I invited three of my friends to have dinner at home.I decided to make Fagao,a traditional Chinese dessert for them.It is made of glutinous rice,sugar,and some other ingredients.Depending on the specific ingredients added,it may be in yellow,white,or red.

我要告诉你的经历发生在一个月前。当时我邀请三个朋友到家里吃饭。我决定为他们做发糕，一种传统的中国点心。它由糯米、糖以及一些其他原料制成。根据添加的具体原料，它可以呈现出黄色、白色或者红色等颜色。

However,the problem was that these were all the information I knew.I had never made it before and did not know the exact procedures or weights,like what the ratio of flour and water should be and how long it should be steamed.So I turned to the internet to look for these details.

然而，问题是这就是我知道的所有信息。我之前从来都没有做过，也不知道准确的步骤和份量，比如面粉和水的比例应该怎样，以及到底应该蒸多久。因此，我登上互联网，寻找这些细节。

Initially,I used Baidu,the biggest search engine in China,but the result was disappointing.Most of the pages focused on what Fagao was rather than how it was made.However,it did draw my attention to a specific website that provided a large number of recipes.So I searched on this site for the information,and several relevant articles showed up,and one of them was exactly what I needed.

一开始，我用百度，中国最大的搜索引擎。但结果令人失望。大多数网页都是关于发糕是什么，而不是如何制作。但是，它确实让我注意到一个特定的网站。上面提供有大量的食谱。我在上面搜索信息，几篇相关的文章展现出来。其中就有我需要的东西。

I was quite satisfied with the search,and I also learned that sometimes the search engine could only act as a guide.You need to look at the right place to find what you want.

我对搜索结果十分满意，也了解到有时候搜索引擎只能起到导引作用。你需要找到正确的地方才能获得想要的东西。
