"Support to double homework for high school students! Save America's future!"

"It is urgent to let high school students feel the pressure of college homework in advance! We can't lose to the Soviet Union!"

A group of men and women from Stanford University held up signs and loudly proclaimed their slogans to passers-by on the road.

This is an activity to support education reform and increase the workload of primary and secondary schools in the United States. The US government survey found that its own basic education is worrying. More than 20 million American adults even face difficult reading and writing tasks in junior high schools. Get a satisfactory score.

American public high school students are not very interested in learning, dating, sports, parties and other activities that have nothing to do with learning take up most of the day.

Americans used to think that their own happy education was very good, until the British were bored not long ago, they made a simple comparison between American high school students and Soviet high school students, made a documentary, and then Americans found that the daily life of Soviet high school students Enriched, under the strict requirements of the teacher, go to class on time, do physics experiments, read world classics, etc., go to the military camp to participate in some student experience activities after school, and a day for my high school students is to chat up girls I like in various classrooms, after school Dates, parties, sneaky prescriptions...

Although very dissatisfied with being exposed by the British, the U.S. government found after its own investigation that the quality of its high school students was not only inferior to that of the Soviet Union, but also the high school students of Japan, South Korea, Germany and other countries.

This made the U.S. government feel that it is necessary to carry out educational reforms, such as increasing the homework load of high school students first, so that they have no time to pick up girls, at least on the surface, making high school students look as full as Soviet high school students.

So in the past few years, a bunch of people who like to join in the fun have emerged from various universities across the country to support high school students to increase their homework. Anyway, they have already gone to college and don't need to feel this kind of pain. Teachers from various public high schools are grouped together to oppose this reform. Once the reform is successful, their workload will also increase significantly.

"If you think you are qualified to participate in this position game like those big companies, which side should you support?" Tommy sat in front of an outdoor coffee stand on Greek Avenue in Stanford University, and asked Susan who was sitting opposite Said: "I remember that when I was studying, the school held this kind of parade. After so many years, everyone is still happy to help the younger generation improve their homework."

"Of course I support reform." Susan looked at a group of men and women passing by her, and asked Tommy with a smile: "Want to visit ONE's fraternity house?"

Compared with her previous student temperament, Susan is much more mature now. Her long hair is scattered on her back like waves, and her elastic legs are stacked together. Although she is not a top-notch beauty, at this moment The inadvertent charm of the leisurely movements still made the part-time waiter who came over to serve coffee to the two couldn't help but sneak a few extra glances.

"No, don't break the fraternity rules." Tommy looked at Susan: "I guess you called me, didn't you just want to buy me a cup of campus coffee?"

Susan looked at Sophia, who was holding up a camera to take pictures not far away by returning to the Stanford campus, and looked at Tommy: "I'm graduating soon, Tommy."

"I know, but you don't need me to provide you with a job like you did back then." Tommy picked up the cigarette brought by Susan on the table, lit one and looked at Susan.

Today's Susan Curtis is the president of the eleven-member ONE fraternity at Stanford University. Although Tommy didn't deliberately inquire about Susan's situation at Stanford, occasionally Sophia would talk about things from Mark, Holly and others. What I learned about Susan.

In the second year of entering Stanford, Susan took ONE with only five people to the agricultural area of ​​Saramento's Central Valley, and went to major local farms because of the large number of Latino smugglers robbing jobs at low prices. Life is difficult. Lower class American families offered a business called "pig banking."

ONE provides two young pigs, one male and one female, feed and medicine, etc. The other party only needs to feed the pigs provided by ONE every day, raise them to breed and expand their scale, or prepare them for sale. However, ONE needs to charge The interest of a fat pig means that of the two pigs raised by the other party, one of them is raised for ONE.

At that time, both Mark and Sophia felt that Susan was imitating Tommy. Only Tommy knew that Susan had already begun to try to understand the most basic political games.

It seems that the interest is as high as a pig, but Susan and her ONE are not planning to become a California farming tycoon, but have the capital to cooperate with those politicians. Those politicians want the votes of the bottom voters. Susan and ONE can help them. Then they will naturally not be stingy with kindness.

"A black congresswoman in Saramento County wants me to be her speech writing secretary after graduation." Susan looked at Tommy: "What do you think of this job?"

Tommy looked towards the faintly visible SSD fraternity house in the distance, and gave his opinion: "Many graduates majoring in political science will start their careers as assistants to congressmen and assistants to officials. It is quite satisfactory. If you like to go, I will Of course I don't mind."

"How is your black TV station?" Susan didn't continue to ask the other party's opinion, and then asked about BT TV station.

Tommy withdrew his gaze and looked at Susan: "I asked Delia to help me find a black lawyer, and then the program is also being planned. Now that TV program production has become industrialized, everything can be handed over to Hollywood TV program production companies. , as long as you are willing to pay the bill."

"I think, go to your TV station to work." Susan hesitated for a long time before she couldn't help but raised her head and said to Tommy: "I've thought about this problem for a long time, and I'd better go to you when I go to Saramento, but I think we should Go work by your side."

Tommy shook his head slightly: "Do what you should do, my TV station can't do it without you..."

"The extramarital birth rate of blacks is 32%, 67% of black children are born out of wedlock, and 70% of black children are born to unmarried mothers. There are two types of black family structures. One is that the father is regarded as the head of the family and the The only worker, the mother is a housewife, taking care of the children, and the other, the family is fragmented, the mother raises the children alone, the family is more like a matriarchal society." Susan looked at Tommy and said some data.

Tommy sighed, "It's the first time I've seen job seekers call their employers to their site for an interview, Susan."

"The former type is less than 30%, and the rest are matriarchal families. That is to say, 70% of the bottom black American families today are black matriarchal systems, and these single mothers cannot take care of their children alone. They will rely on a Extended family members come to help yourself, maybe mom, aunt, grandma, etc. For every 100,000 black men, the number of criminals in prison can reach 3,000, while white men are 460. I have already systematically gone to your TV station researched a lot of black material."

"I'm in television, Susan, and you should do what you want to do."

"You are my hope, Tommy." Susan looked at Tommy and said seriously: "I don't want to help the black congresswoman write a speech and help her correct typos."

(Today I was also hospitalized for transfusion. Finally, all four members of my family were recruited. Except for my daughter, all three of them are in the hospital. There is no update tonight. Let’s talk about it tomorrow. The fever has not subsided and my mind is groggy. Please bear with me.)
