Serenity：

This dining hall is the worst ever.

这个食堂最差劲了。

Yeah, they raised the price, and the food there still tastes like garbage.

是啊，他们说涨价就涨价，东西还难吃得要死。

And they never deal with our complaints.

Nope. I heard that nearly 2000 students have signed a petition showing our dissatisfaction with the food, price and service.

就是。我听说有将近两千个学生在请愿书上签名了，表达我们对食物、价格和服务的不满。

Do you think it will work?

你说这能管用吗?

Many hands make light work. I think this could force them to improve a little.

众人拾柴火焰高嘛。我想总能让他们改进一点儿吧。

Serenity：

I hope so.
