Another kind of love

另一种爱

Inside the Russian Embassy in London a KGB colonel puffed a cigarette as he read the handwritten note for the third time. There was no need for the writer to express regret, he though. Correcting this problem would be easy. He would do that in a moment. The thought of it caused a grim smile to appear and joy to his heart. But he pushed away those thoughts and turned his attention to a framed photograph on his desk. His wife was beautiful, he told himself as he remembered the day they were married. That was forty-three years ago, and it had been the proudest and happiest day of his life.

在伦敦的俄国使馆，一位克格勃上校一边吞云吐雾，一边读着一张手写的字条，这已是他第三次在读这张字条了。便条的作者不必表示遗憾了，上校这样想着。纠正这个错误其实很容易。他只要一会儿工夫便会做到。想到这里，他的脸上不禁浮现出一种可怕的笑容，他内心深处既伤感而又快活。上校从沉思中游离出来，将注意力集中到桌子上的一个像框上，他的妻子是位美丽的女人，当想起他们成婚的那一天时他不禁自语道。那已是43年前的事情了，可却是他一生中最自豪最幸福的日子。

What had happened to all that time? Why had it passed so quickly and why hadn’t he spent more of it with her? Why hadn’t he held her close and told her more often that he loved her? He cursed himself as a tear came from the corner of his eye, ran down his cheek, and then dropped onto the note. He stiffened and wiped his face with the back of his hand. There was no need for remorse or regret, he told himself. In a few moments he would join her and at that time would express his undying love and devotion.

那些时候都发生了什么？为什么时光流逝得如此之快？为什么他没能将更多的时光用来陪伴她？为什么他没能将她搂紧，更多次地告诉她他爱她？他于是开始诅咒起自己，泪水也忍不住夺眶而出，流过面颊，最后滴落在字条上。这时，他板起了面孔，用手背揩去了眼泪。已经没有必要来自责与悔恨了，他对自己说道。很快他不就会与她团聚了吗？到那时，他将再向她表达他永恒的爱与忠心。 After setting the note ablaze he dropped it into an ashtray and watched it burn. For a time the names cast moving shadows on the walls of the darkened room, then they nickered and died out. The colonel dropped the cigarette to the floor and ground it out with his heel, then clutched the photograph to his breast, removed a pistol from his pocket, placed the barrel in his mouth and pulled the trigger. In the ashtray a small portion of the note remained. Where it had been wetted by his tear it had failed to bum, and on that scrap of paper were the words "died yesterday."

他点燃了字条，将它扔进了烟灰缸中，看着它慢慢地燃烧起来。在火苗的映衬下，这间漆黑的屋子里的四壁一时变得影影绰绰。不一会儿，火苗成了星星点点，渐渐地熄灭了。上校把香烟扔在了地板上，用后脚跟碾灭，随后抓起照片放在自己的胸前。他从衣兜中掏出了一把手枪，将枪筒放进自己的嘴中，接着扣动扳机。在烟灰缸中还残留着一小片字条，由于被上校的泪水浸湿而未能燃尽。在这块残片上有这样几个字“昨天去世”。

Are Same-Sex Colleges Still Relevant?

Last week, the board of Sweet Briar College, an all-women’s school in Virginia, announced that it would be permanently shuttered in August due to “insurmountable financial challenges.” The school’s president, James Jones, Jr., attributed the close, in part, to the declining number of “young women willing to consider a single-sex education.” Is there still a place for same-sex colleges? Do they play an important role in education, or are they outdated?

Sweet Briar Is Fighting an Up-Hill Battle

Diane Halpern, the dean of social sciences at Minerva Schools at KGI and former president of the American Psychological Association, is the author of "Sex Differences in Cognitive

Abilities."

UPDATED MARCH 10, 2015, 3:31 AM

The popular idea that single-sex education benefits women comes from anecdotes about female leaders who were educated in an era when elite colleges did not admit them.

Despite a beautiful campus, dedicated faculty, loyal alumnae and a significant endowment,

Sweet Briar College is closing after 114 years. Too few students were choosing Sweet Briar, so the college discounted its tuition rate, a move that exacerbated its financial problems but did not succeed in attracting enough students.

As a small, rural, liberal arts women's college, Sweet Briar was fighting an up-hill battle against many trends in higher education. Although all of these variables probably contributed to the lack of student interest, President James Jones, Jr. acknowledged that declining interest in

single-sex education was decisive in its demise. Data supports this conclusion: According to the Women's College Coalition, the number of women’s colleges declined from 230 to little more than 40 in the last half-century.

By many measures, today's women are flourishing in higher education and do not need a protected environment to develop their intellectual potential. Women are enrolled in higher education at higher rates than men and achieve better grades. Young women are at or near parity in many “traditionally male” professions including law and medicine.

While women are still underrepresented in positions of leadership and in some, but not all, math-intensive disciplines, there is no data to support the myth that single-sex colleges prepare women better to become leaders in our co-ed world or that their graduates are more likely to choose math-intensive career options.

The popular idea that single-sex education benefits women comes from anecdotes about female leaders who were educated in an era when elite colleges did not admit them. For example, Hillary Clinton attended Wellesley College, but she also graduated from Yale Law School, which was co-ed.

Sweet Briar Was the Best Place for Me

Julia Patt, a 2009 graduate of Sweet Briar College, is the communications manager for the Starfish Foundation, Inc.

UPDATED MARCH 10, 2015, 3:31 AM

As long as misogyny and violence against women exists in our society, open environments like women's colleges remain relevant.

My parents, friends and teachers were more than a little concerned when I made my college choice. I suppose they had imagined me at an edgy art school in Brooklyn or a city-sized state university surrounded by 50,000 others. Instead, I picked a small, rural women’s college, most notable for its equestrian program and its unusual choice of school colors: pink and green.

“You hate pink. Are you sure that’s the best place for you?” they asked, probably thinking I’d taken a recent blow to the head.

But it was the best place for me. Sweet Briar College — located in central Virginia on a stunning 3,200-acre campus — provided me with the exact kind of education I needed. In my years there, I designed psychology experiments to track imitation bias, waded through streams to examine aquatic ecosystems and engaged in lively seminars about everything from the causes of Soviet upheaval to modern definitions of torture. Our professors were always on hand to answer questions or continue classroom conversations over coffee. My friends and I lingered for hours in the dining hall musing about current events, ethical quandaries or (one time) the origins of the letter 'W.'

At the time, I didn’t care that the school was single-sex; I just wanted a good education. Looking back, I can see how crucial that aspect of the institution was to my education. I have since completed two co-educational graduate programs, where I’ve seen, firsthand this time, classroom bias in action: Professors often favor male participation without realizing it.

I’ve read countless articles on the under-representation of women and the sexism rampant in the STEM fields, to say nothing of the myriad issues regarding the waysexual assault is handled at prestigious co-educational universities. As long as misogyny and violence against women exist in our society, open environments like women's colleges remain, and indeed achieve new ways to be, relevant. For example, women’s colleges have begun admitting transgender students, offering a supportive educational experience for a much ignored and abused community.

Recently, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with dozens of Sweet Briar alumnae. The reason for our gathering is shared heartbreak: Our board of directors has decided to close the college. But the conversations we have remind me what I so loved about my experience there. It is

amazing how thoughtful and creative women can be when their community supports and listens to them. And luckily for all of us, confidence, critical thinking and independence goes into the world with them.

The Success of All-Male Schools

Christopher B. Howard is the president of Hampden-Sydney College, a private, liberal arts school for men.

UPDATED MARCH 10, 2015, 3:31 AM

Institutions solely dedicated to teaching and encouraging males to achieve — when society often expects so little of them — remain important.

It is perhaps more important now, than at any time in recent history, to offer multiple, viable paths to young men to help them succeed. Allowing all-male educational options to fall away deprives boys and men of the institutions that may be personally and intellectually right for them.

Institutions solely dedicated to teaching and encouraging males to achieve – when society often expects so little of them – remain necessary for primary, secondary and undergraduate

education. Men fail out of school at a higher rate than women, boys read at a lower level than girls and earn fewer A’s and B’s than their female counterparts. The number of male high school valedictorians pales in comparison to the number of females who earn that distinction and women graduate at higher rates than men.

But all-male schools have seen incredible success for their students, who have a wide range of abilities, talents and interests. That is why schools such as Chicago's Urban Prep Academy with its 100 percent college placement rate, and Hampden-Sydney College with its strong graduation rate – 11 percent higher than the national average for men – occupy an important space in America's education mosaic.

Colleges like Hampden-Sydney, Morehouse, St. John's University in Minnesota and Wabash afford the sons of an astonishing number of diverse families the opportunity to attend places that are focused explicitly on assisting students with their journey from boyhood, to "guyhood," to manhood. Although it can be a difficult task regardless of the student's circumstances, modern men's colleges and boys’ schools have done it well for years.

Same-Sex Schools Perpetuate Notions of Difference Between

Men and Women

Lise Eliot, an associate professor of neuroscience at the Chicago Medical School of Rosalind Franklin University, is the author of "Pink Brain, Blue Brain: How Small Differences Grow Into Troublesome Gaps – And What We Can Do About It."

UPDATED MARCH 10, 2015, 11:52 AM

If we really want women and men to compete on even playing fields, they have to be raised and educated in a truly gender-integrated way.

Whether at the K-12 or college level, the existence of single-sex schools perpetuates the myth that males and females think and learn differently. This is just one reason why they are outdated and ultimately not beneficial in preparing young people for today’s gender-integrated society.

Overall, women have done very well academically since the passage of Title IX and integration of most universities. They now earn some 57 percent of bachelor’s degrees, 63 percent of master’s, and 53 percent of doctoral degrees awarded each year in the U.S. However, they are still woefully underrepresented in engineering and computer science, fields that are not typically strong at all-women’s colleges. (Sweet Briar does not formally offer a computer science major.)

The question, then, is: How do we keep girls interested in math-intensive fields and on track toward STEM careers that still look mostly male?

Make sure they are comfortable playing with the boys. Single-sex education isoften predicated on the notion that females and males have inherently different cognitive and interpersonal styles and, therefore, need sex-specific pedagogy to best reach their potential.

But the truth is that sex differences in math ability, spatial skills, assertiveness and

competitiveness are much more a product of gender socialization and segregation. In other words, it is precisely because girls and boys spend so much time apart, practicing different skills and relational styles, that they walk into college classrooms with different types of academic confidence and career ambition.

Neuropsychological research has identified very few innate differences between males and females and for most academic and interpersonal skills, the sexes actually overlap much more than they differ. If we really want women and men to compete on even playing fields, they have to be raised and educated in a truly gender-integrated way, where no one is excluded and both sexes learn how to respect, collaborate with and lead each other through shared experience.

The Freeing Powers of Single-Sex Education

Edward Fergus, an assistant professor of educational leadership and policy at New York University, is a co-author of "Schooling for Resilience: Improving the Life Trajectory of Black and Latino Boys."

UPDATED MARCH 10, 2015, 3:31 AM

Single-sex schools allow black and Latino boys to feel comfortable and express their emotions, changing notions about a one dimensional image of masculinity.

Years ago, during a classroom visit, I observed a small group of black and Latino high school boys sitting at their desks looking into handheld mirrors. They were tasked with answering the question, “What do you see?” One boy said, “I see an ugly face.” Another said, “I see a big nose.”

It was one of the many moments I observed in single-sex schools where black and Latino boys felt comfortable, and allowed, to express their emotions, changing notions about a one dimensional image of masculinity. Our society is partly responsible for the ways in which

gender-based expectations can be reinforced and, over time, those expectations can help create vulnerable situations that lead to limited economic mobility, job opportunity and leadership development.

A benefit of single-sex environments is the opportunity for cognitive expansion that can exist alongside multifaceted displays of masculinity and femininity. In single-sex education, teachers make an understanding of race, ethnicity, linguistic diversity, masculinity, femininity and sexuality a profound part of their educational mission. Such identity-driven missions create protective environments, like the ones found in single-sex high schools like Urban Prep Academy and Eagle Academy, and colleges like Bryn Mawr, Spelman and Morehouse.

Overall, the closing of single-sex colleges like Sweet Briar may be more indicative of economic and demographic dynamics — stagnant high school graduation and college readiness, increasing college costs and the rise in online education — rather than a drop in importance and relevance for environments where “Who I am” and “Who I want to be” take center stage. Those questions, safely explored, allow students to develop in healthy cognitive, social and emotional ways, with gender nonconforming values.

Think Positive Thoughts Every Day

积极看待每一天

If your life feels like it is lacking the power that you want and the motivation that you need, sometimes all you have to do is shift your point of view. 如果你觉得心有余力不足，觉得缺乏前进的动力，有时候你只需要改变思维的角度。

By training your thoughts to concentrate on the bright side of things, you are more likely to have the incentive to follow through on your goals. You are less likely to be held back by negative ideas that might limit your performance.

试着训练自己的思想朝好的一面看，这样你就会汲取实现目标的动力，而不会因为消极沉沦停滞不前。

Your life can be enhanced, and your happiness enriched, when you choose to change your perspective. Don't leave your future to chance, or wait for things to get better mysteriously on their own. You must go in the direction of your hopes and aspirations. Begin to build your confidence, and work through problems rather than avoid them.

Remember that power is not necessarily control over situations, but the ability to deal with whatever comes your way.

一旦变换看问题的角度，你的生活会豁然开朗，幸福快乐会接踵而来。别交出掌握命运的主动权，也别指望局面会不可思议地好转。你必须与内心希望与热情步调一致。建立自信，敢于与困难短兵相接，而非绕道而行。记住，力量不是驾驭局势的法宝，无坚不摧的能力才是最重要的。

Always believe that good things are possible, and remember that mistakes can be lessons that lead to discoveries. Take your fear and transform it into trust; learn to rise above anxiety and doubt. Turn your “worry hours” into “productive hours”. Take the energy that you have wasted and direct it toward every worthwhile effort that you can be involved in.

请坚信，美好的降临并非不可能，失误也许是成功的前奏。将惶恐化作信任，学会超越担忧和疑虑。让“诚惶诚恐”的时光变得“富有成效”。不要挥霍浪费精力，将它投到有意义的事情中去。

You will see beautiful things happen when you allow yourself to experience the joys of life. You will find happiness when you adopt positive thinking into your daily routine and make it an important part of your world.

当你下意识品尝生命的欢愉时，美好就会出现。当你积极地看待生活，并以此作为你的日常准则时，你就会找到快乐的真谛。

For most people, it’s almost impossible to operate a computer without a mouse, let alone surf the Internet. A well-chosen mouse is really handy, flexible and convenient in controlling the screen. With the functions of inserting, deleting, moving and copying, it enables us to edit test, browse web page and download what we want. It can even bring us a flood of music, movies and PC games. Just imagine, all this can be done with a cute mouse.

A convenient tool can certainly make our work easier, but it doesn’t always help in a positive way. Too much ready information on our fingertips leaves little room for knowledge pursuing. Too many ready answers make us less excited in finding truth. Relying too much on mouse clicking makes us lazier and less creative both mentally and physically.（153 words）
