A victory for coeducation
"Well, I hate to say it, but that was a colossal failure!" Said Mr. Wells after he had collected all of the surveys he had passed out. ~I thought there would be coherent arguments against coeducation, as well as a clear majority to keep things the way they are already. But all of the students and colleagues in our very cognitive university setting seem to think that we should change our school code to allow a coed university. Some even want coed dormitories. That won' t happen over my dead body! Do you think there is any way that we can coerce them otherwise?"
"Well, let's first collate the surveys to see what the exact numbers are." Said Mr. MacKenzie in response. "Okay, I've collapsed the results into three categories. It's no coincidence; the majority favors this coarse change in policy just as you said. Well Mr. Wells, I guess that there was really no need for us to collaborate on this issue. We havefailed. We coined several good slogans. Several collocations were brilliant. And the coherence of our arguments was sound. But we have just collided with reality! They want a coed university!"
"Okay. admit defeat." Sighed Mr. Wells. "Let's take this collection of surveys to the library. Oh, watch out! We just avoided a major collision with that biker. Ah well, maybe students will remember some of our coinages later in life."
"Yes, but they' 11 probably remember and laugh. We' re in for a lot of change, Mr. Wells, a lot of change! "
男女同校"的獲勝
“嗨,我討厭提這事,可那實在是個巨大的失敗。”威爾士先生把所有發出去的調查表收上來之後説道,“我原以為絕大多數人會贊成保持現狀而且大家對男女同校會一致持反對意見,可是在我們這個認識能力很強的大學環境裏,所有的學生和同事似乎都認為應該改變學校道德標準,允許它變成一所男女同校的大學。有人甚至還想把宿舍也變成男女混住。我死也不會同意他們這麼做!你認為我們有什麼辦法強迫他們不那樣嗎?”
“好,我們先核對一下調查結果,看看具體的數字是什麼。”麥肯錫先生回答道,“好啦,我已經把調查結果分成三大類。大部分人都如你所説,同意對政策做粗俗的改變,這不是巧合。威爾士先生,我看咱們沒必要在這個問題上合作了。咱們輸了。我們杜撰了幾句不錯的口號,有些搭配相當精彩,論點也條理清楚!可是我們的做法就是和現實發生了衝突!他們想要一所男女同校的大學!”
“好吧,我承認失敗了。”威爾士先生直歎氣,“我們把這批收集到的調查表拿到圖書館去吧。啊,小心!剛才我們差點兒和那個騎自行車的撞了個正着。嗯,學生們也許以後會記住一些我們創造的新詞。”
“是啊,不過他們可能會記住並笑話我們。我們肯定會有翻天覆地的變化,威爾士先生,翻天覆地的變化!”
