Now listen to two students discussing the college's plan.

两个学生正在讨论这项大学计划。请听他们的对话。

The college's making a mistake with this new plan.

学校这项新计划是个错误。

What do you mean? I think it will really help accomplish the college's goals.

为什么?我觉得它会切切实实帮助学校达成目标啊。

Don't' be so sure! All that construction, for two years?

先别这么肯定!这可是个大工程,要进行两年啊!

It's gonna create a lot of noise.

一定会制造出很多噪音的。

Well, you mean in the beginning, for students still living in the dorms.

你说的是刚开始动工,学生们还住在宿舍的时候吧。

Yeah, students who are trying to sleep or do works are constantly going to be disturbed.

没错,那些想要睡觉或者好好做事的人会不断受到干扰的。

So, people will try to get as far away as possible, probably by moving off campus.

所以,大家一定会尽量远离施工地点,也许会搬出学校。

So they are losing even more people!

这样一来反而更少人会住在宿舍了!

Huh, I haven't thought of that.

我还没想到过这点呢。

But still, once all the constructions are over,

不过,一旦所有工程都竣工了,

more people will probably want to live in the dorms, right?

说不定会有更多人想要住在宿舍里呢,对吗?

I mean, the living conditions will be so much better.

我是说,到时候住宿条件肯定会好很多的。

If they can afford to, do you know how the college is planning on paying for this plan?

如果他们能住得起的话咯。你知道学校打算怎么筹钱进行这个项目吗?

By raising the cost of campus housing!

他们打算提高学校的房价来支付工程费用!

Oh! I didn't realize that.

哦?我不知道啊。

Yeah, so if it's more expensive why would people want to move back into the dorms if they can rent an apartment for less money?

是真的。所以如果住宿费提高了的话,大家凭什么放着更便宜的公寓不去租,反而搬回宿舍呢?
