                                                                    A victory for coeducation
       "Well，I hate to say it，but that was a colossal（1）failure

  !" Said Mr.Wells after he had （2）collected

  all of the （3）surveys

  he had passed out. "I thought there would be coherent（4）arguments

  against coeducation，as well as a clear（5）majority

  to keep things the way they are already.But all of the students and（6）colleagues

  in our very cognitive （7）university

  setting seem to think that we should change our school code to allow a coed university.Some even want coed（8）dormitories

  .That won' t happen over my dead body!Do you think there is any way that we can coerce them （9）otherwise

  ？"
      "Well，let's first collate the surveys to see what the（10）exact

  numbers are." Said Mr.MacKenzie in response. "Okay，I've collapsed the results into three categories.It's no coincidence；the majority （11）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 （12）issue

  .We have failed.We coined several good（13）slogans

  .Several collocations were（14）brilliant

  .And the（15）coherence

  of our arguments was sound.But we have just collided with（16）reality

  !They want a coed university!"
      "Okay.（17）admit defeat

  ." （18）Sighed

  Mr.Wells. "Let's take this collection of surveys to the library.Oh，watch out!We just（19）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! "

  A complicated composition "This piece （1）is filled with

  more complication than I could ever have （2）conceived

  of composing." Said the （3）composer

  to the newspaper（4）journalist

  ."You see，the song is comprised of （5）a variety of

  separate（6）elements

  that are concealed within the song.I concede that they may be hard to（7）detect

  in the beginning，but like a concave bowl，with everything gathered together in the middle that you can only understand when you come out.You understand in the end as they are compounded in such a manner so that they compliment each other in a beautiful and（8）compulsory

  finale."
      "Yes，I have heard your（9）explanation

  before，Maestro." Responded the journalist in a kind manner. "And we honor your （10）reputation

  greatly.But others just cannot （11）comprehend

  this piece of music that you have written!They say that you have compressed a（12）mix

  of components from other well-known songs.For them it is not conceivable that there is any order，form or pattern.They say that you have compromised the art form and that there should be some compulsion for you to （13）comply with demands

  for your （14）withdrawal

  of this song from the public（15）area

  !"
      "There may be some compression （16）present

  .I agree." （17）Defended

  the composer. "But it is beyond my comprehension why I should （18）remove

  this piece of art from the public's ear!"
      "Well Maestro，it's the public that is （19）having the problem with

  your song!No one likes it.No one understands it!So no one wants to listen to it!"

• 5．請(qǐng)寫(xiě)出劃線部分的漢語(yǔ)意思Too curious Before the （1）conclusion

  of the concert，Marianne slipped to the Concession Stand for an ice cream cone.When she was there she （2）overheard

  two men conferring together about their （3）lack

  of （4）confidence

  in（5）arresting

  someone at the end of the performance.Marianne（6）concentrated

  more to see if she could understand their words.It was （7）none of her concern

  ，of course，but this type of （8）conduct

  was （9）typical

  for Marianne.
      The name of the person that was conferred upon was too much for her to（10）bear

  ，however，and she had to （11）confess

  to herself that this was something she really shouldn't know.As she walked back to her chair she was condemning herself already for being so curious.
      （12）Condemnation

  never worked with Marianne， （13）unfortunately

  ，and she suddenly had the conception to （14）warn

  the individual.She could not condone his arrest；he was too nice of a friend and a good neighbor.
      She stood again and，planning to speak condolences for the death of the son this man had recently lost，she stepped across the concrete stairway that （15）separated

  her from the man who would soon be arrested.This walkway was not conducive to Marianne' s shoes，however，and she （16）tripped

  and fell.She tried to grab a hand to stop her，but she only（17）succeeded in

  pulling a cup of coffee with too much condensed milk across her new dress.And then she passed out.
      When Marianne awoke she had no （18）concept

  of where she was.（19）Eventually

  she rose to see that everyone was gone and only one kind gentleman was left to help her.She frowned when she realized that her（20）effort

  to held that man had failed.He had been arrested for sure!
