  "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 acoed 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!"

  读故事单词雅思词汇-"男女同校"的获胜

  “嗨，我讨厌提这事，可那实在是个巨大的失败。”威尔士先生把所有发出去的调查表收上来之后说道，“我原以为绝大多数人会赞成保持现状而且大家对男女同校会一致持反对意见，可是在我们这个认识能力很强的大学环境里，所有的学生和同事似乎都认为应该改变学校道德标准，允许它变成一所男女同校的大学。有人甚至还想把宿舍也变成男女混住。我死也不会同意他们这么做!你认为我们有什么办法强迫他们不那样吗?”

  “好，我们先核对一下调查结果，看看具体的数字是什么。”麦肯锡先生回答道，“好啦，我已经把调查结果分成三大类。大部分人都如你所说，同意对政策做粗俗的改变，这不是巧合。威尔士先生，我看咱们没必要在这个问题上合作了。咱们输了。我们杜撰了几句不错的口号，有些搭配相当精彩，论点也条理清楚!可是我们的做法就是和现实发生了冲突!他们想要一所男女同校的大学!”

  “好吧，我承认失败了。”威尔士先生直叹气，“我们把这批收集到的调查表拿到图书馆去吧。啊，小心!刚才我们差点儿和那个骑自行车的撞了个正着。嗯，学生们也许以后会记住一些我们创造的新词。”

  “是啊，不过他们可能会记住并笑话我们。我们肯定会有翻天覆地的变化，威尔士先生，翻天覆地的变化!”
