To listen to the two professors, Smith the zoologist and Jones the philosopher（哲学家）, you would never guess they were friends. They argued everything. Smith was a scientist, who believed in“facts”, while Jones was a thinker, who believed in“ideas”.
One day, two scientists found themselves at Coney Island. Professor Smith had a young niece, who, for her birthday, had begged her uncle to take her there. Smith asked his friend Jones to come along. That is how the three of them came to a notice about a remarkable dog.
“Let's go inside, uncle. Please!”
What they saw did amaze them. The dog danced on its hind legs, keeping time to the music. When asked to add two and three, it barked five times. When the man played a tune on the piano, the dog sang in time to the music. It could even talk, after a fashion（模仿）. When asked how many states there were in the Union, it made a noise which sounded extremely like fifty.
The old scientist was amazed by the dog's performance, so after an hour of bargaining, the dog was his.
“It is for me, uncle?”
“Not exactly, my dear.”Professor Smith answered.“I need it for an important scientific experiment.”
“Come on, Smith,”said the philosopher.
“You always say'seeing is believing'. The dog is genius（天才）. What more do you need to know?”
Professor Smith said,“We may be close to the greatest scientific discovery of all time. If I can find out why this animal is so intelligent…”
A few days later, Jones visited his friend.
“You what?”he cried, unbelieving.
“I did what any scientist would do,” said Smith.“I put the dog to sleep and cut out its brain to find out what was special about it.”
“And?”Jones asked.
“Do you know, I couldn't find anything which would explain its extraordinary abilities”Professor Smith replied.
At that moment, the professor's niece came into the room.
“Can I play with my doggie, uncle? Please! He's so clever.”
Neither science nor philosophy had an answer for the little girl.
