He said that Yale Law School is going downhill for most of its professors are over 60. To keep its edge, Yale has to resort to recruiting the new stars in Harvard.
A:許多報紙都說哈佛在培養法律專業的學生方面有很大的潛力。芝加哥大學的一位 法律系教授曾把哈佛法學院比作一頭睡獅，但現在覺醒了。他認爲，耶魯法學院由於教授大多超過60歲，正在走下坡路。爲了保持優勢，耶魯不得不挖走哈佛 的法學新星。

A: As far as I am concerned，where there is competition, there is progress.

B:我非常贊成你的觀點。你可以再查閱一些資料，統籌考慮各方面的因素。要知道， 出國需要不少錢的，許多家庭都負擔不起。
A: It’s true. The tuition fee is also my concern. Both universities offer favorable preferences. Since 2008, Yale has cut down the tuition fee by a large margin ensuring the admittance of more outstanding students. However, nearly at the same time Harvard also offer tempting scholarships. I find myself in a dilemma.
A:是的,學費也是我的一個顧慮。兩所大學都實行了一些優惠政策。從2008年開始， 耶魯大幅度削減學費以保證錄取優質學生，差不多同時，哈佛也宣佈提供誘人的 獎學金。我現在真是左右爲難。
