[00:22.31]在過去兩周里，他們每天都在這個(gè)大帳篷里表演節(jié)目。 [00:24.83]Then,like one clan unified in their chore, [00:27.47]接著，就像一個(gè)部落里的人一起干家務(wù)活一樣， [00:30.11]they clamped on to the large pins [00:34.05]holding the tent in place and pulled them out.

[05:20.81]威爾士先生把所有發(fā)出去的調(diào)查表收上來之后說道， [05:24.25]"I thought there would be coherent arguments against coeducation," [05:27.93]我原以為大家對男女同校會(huì)一致持反對意見 [05:31.61]as well as a clear majority to keep things the way they are already. [05:34.43]絕大多數(shù)人會(huì)贊成保持現(xiàn)狀.

[05:49.44]似乎都認(rèn)為應(yīng)該改變學(xué)校道德標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，允許它變成一所男女同校的大學(xué)。威爾士先生， [05:52.93]Some even want coed dormitories. [05:55.66]有人甚至還想把宿舍也變成男女混住。 [05:58.39]That won' t happen over my dead body!

[06:22.85]好啦，我已經(jīng)把調(diào)查結(jié)果分成三大類。 [06:25.58]It's no coincidence the majority favors this coarse changein policy [06:33.24]just as you said. [06:34.71]都如你所說大部分人同意對政策做粗俗的改變，這不是巧合。 [06:36.19]Well Mr.Wells, [06:37.87]威爾士先生， [06:39.56]I guess that there was really no need for us to collabora-te on this issue. [06:42.43]我看咱們沒必要在這個(gè)問題上合作了。 [06:45.30]We have failed. We coined several good slogans. [06:48.44]咱們輸了。我們杜撰了幾句不錯(cuò)的口號， [06:51.57]Several collocations were brilliant.

[07:03.96]可是我們的做法就是和現(xiàn)實(shí)發(fā)生了沖突！ [07:06.33]They want a coed university!" [07:08.25]他們想要一所男女同校的大學(xué)！” [07:10.17]"Okay.I admit defeat." Sighed Mr.Wells." [07:12.71]好吧，我承認(rèn)失敗了。"威爾士先生直嘆氣， [07:15.24]"Let's take this collection of surveys to the library." [07:17.57]“我們把這批收集到的調(diào)查表拿到圖書館去吧?！? [07:19.89]Oh,watch out!We just avoided a major collision with that biker. [07:23.13]啊，小心!剛才我們差點(diǎn)兒和那個(gè)騎自行車的撞了個(gè)正著。 [07:26.37]Ah well, maybe students will remember some of our coinages later in life." [07:29.65]嗯，學(xué)生們也許以后會(huì)記住一些我們創(chuàng)造的新詞?！? [07:32.93]"Yes,but they'll probably remember and laugh." [07:35.90]“是啊，不過他們可能會(huì)記住并笑話我們?！? [07:38.88]We're in for a lot of change,Mr.Wells, lot of change !"
