An honorable entry
The acclaimed academic, Dr. Sir Walter T.J. Fitzbody, accompanied the equally accessible expert of aboriginal history, Dr. Mugambe H. C. Carriky, slowly to the platform to accept his National Science Foundation Award. Both were noted for their absenteeism, rarely seen in public and still marveled at for their abnormal usage of double abbreviations in their
names. That it was Dr. Carriky, the former pupil of Dr. Fitzbody who was receiving this life-time award before his mentor was only minor. Dr. Fitzbody knew that academia was not always fair and, having always been rather accommodating for his favorite student anyhow, was taking the event as an honor to his work as well.
When Dr. Carriky accidentally tripped over the toe of a person with his leg extended too far into the aisle, the gasps of the crowd conveniently covered the abusive words that came
out of Dr. Carriky's mouth. The man did not take the abuse kindly, however, and abandoning all respect, began to rise to respond to the guest of honor. Dr. Fitzbody, sensing trouble, quickly accelerated towards the stage. It did not matter that an accessory of his robe was lost to the floor as they escaped. The rest of the audience, sensing a need for accommodation, politely gave clear access so that no further mishaps would occur.
Having accomplished their entry, Dr. Fitzbody began his introduction of Dr. Carriky. He gently smiled and said a joke that related the fall to a historical abstraction. The crowd laughed in relief and breathed easily as they knew that honor and dignity had been restored.
体面的入场
广受赞誉的学者沃尔特.T.J.费茨博迪博士陪同同样平易近人的土著历史研究专家穆甘贝．H.C.克里奇博士缓缓走向领奖台领取国家科学基金奖。这俩人都以离群索居、很少在公共场合抛头露面出名，他俩姓名当中非常规地使用了两个缩写更使人感到不可思议。克里奇博士是费茨博迪博士的前学生，他在导师之前获得这项终生奖项并没有什么不妥，因为费茨博迪博士知道学术界并不总是公平，加上他平时总爱在得意门生面前行个方便，他把这件事也看成了对他的工作的肯定。
克里奇博士不小心踩到了一个把腿伸到走廊的人的脚趾，人群的惊呼声刚好掩盖了克
里奇博士脱口而出的辱骂性语言。可那个男人对这句辱骂却不依不饶，他丢掉一切敬意，站起来准备回敬这位嘉宾。费茨博迪博士感觉到可能会有麻烦，便赶紧加速向讲台走去。脱身的时候他长袍上的一个附件掉在了地上，但这也没什么要紧。其他观众感觉有必要调解这场纠纷，于是很有礼貌地让开一条通道以防再发生什么不愉快的事情。
入场仪式完成之后，费茨博迪博士开始介绍克里奇博士。他温和地笑了笑并讲了个笑
话，把刚才的跌倒与一种历史上的抽象艺术扯上了关系。人们如释重负地笑起来，松了一口气，因为他们明白两位学者找回了荣誉和尊严。
