WRITING OBSTACLE

Describe an object’s temperature without using words relating to tactile senses.

Tactile senses, or the sense of touch, are usually what we use to identify whether something is hot or cold. Without this sense, how else can we recognise and describe temperature?

Hot, Hot

A large gray pot is on the stove. Under it, I can see the flames heating what’s inside the pot, and the pot itself. Small droplets of water are running down the sides of the pot to the flames of the stove. The delicious smell coming from the pot makes me want to open it and eat all the food. But, the flames under the pot discourage me. I put a kitchen glove on my right hand to avoid the burn from the hot pot.
