Professor: Today we're learning some words for talking about "affirmative action" programs in the US. Winnie, if a college or business has an affirmative action program, that means it gives preference to minority students, who have traditionally been underprivileged in American society.
嗯,这个我听说过。美国的"Affirmative action", 平权法案,要求对少数族裔人口实行入学、就业方面的优惠政策。我想,这个政策应该是为了帮助少数族裔,改善他们的社会地位,可难免也会引发一些不满和争议吧?
Professor: Yes, it has been quite controversial. Let's see what Will and Jane have to say about it.
Will: So Jane, where do you go to college?
Jane: I'm at the University of California, in Los Angeles. It's a great school academically, but also because it gives me the chance to meet people of all different nationalities, races and backgrounds.
Will: Yeah, US colleges have become much more diverse ever since affirmative action policies were put in place. But even though that's a good thing, some people still gripe about them.
Jane: Of course, there has been a lot of controversy surrounding them. After all, affirmative action is a pretty blunt instrument for helping disadvantaged groups improve their lives.
