207.The Student Committee Meeting
207.学生会会议
The student advisory committee struggled for hours over whether to open a new students' lounge in the student center.
学生顾问委员会就是否在学生中心建一个新的学生休息室斗争了好几个小时。
Everyone said that they wanted one, but no one seemed to know how to raise the money.
大家都说想要一个，可是谁都不知道如何筹这笔钱。
So they brainstormed about fundraising events. There were a lot of good ideas. One person suggested selling old stuffed animals.
因此他们就募捐的事进行了头脑风暴。好点子还真不少。有人建议把那些旧的填充动物玩具卖了。
But that was not quite the image that the student government wanted to strive for-earning money from old teddy bears!
但那不太符合学生会努力想树立的形象——用旧玩具熊换钱！
So they passed on that idea! The best idea was from a person who was the main representative to the students's council.
因此他们放弃了那个想法！最好的点子是学生会的一个重要代表想出来的。
She suggested designing special student cards to replace the normal student ID.
她建议设计一种特殊的学生证代替普通学生证。
Then each student would have to pay a special “development fee” that would go directly towards paying for projects chosen by the students' government,
这样每个学生就得付一笔特殊的“发展费”，而这笔费用可以直接用于学生会选中的项目，
such as building a new students' lounge! A lot of people liked this idea immediately.
比方说建一个新的学生休息室！很多人立马就喜欢上了这个主意。
Others didn't want to force students to pay anything! So they discussed how to give student discounts to certain people for the new cards,
其他人则不想强迫学生们交钱！因此他们讨论如何让某些学生在购买新学生证时享受学生折扣，
which students' associations wouldn't have to pay, how to hire a studio assistant to help design the card, and other stuff like that!
哪些学生团体不用交费，如何聘请美术室助理帮着搞设计，以及其他诸如此类的事情！
The meeting went on twice as long as usual! In the end, they decided to go with the idea and, instead of hiring someone, hold a contest for the best design.
开会时间比平时多了一倍！最后他们决定接受这样一个方案：不找专业人员设计，而是通过举办比赛选出最优秀的作品。
Then they could hold a students' exhibition in the old study lounge and have everyone vote for their favorite! The meeting was finally over!
这样他们就可以在原来的自习室举办学生作品展览，让大家评选出他们最喜爱的作品！这次会议终于结束了！
