At the beginning of story “love is a fallacy”, a description of the narrator himself is full of praise: calm, precise, sharp, smart, intelligent, sensitive, tactful; in great contrast, followed by the description of his roommate Petty, which are almost negative words, such as empty mind, easily excited and emotional repeated, vulnerable, the pursuit of fashion, the lack of reason and so on. Petty pursuit fashion crazy and lack of rational, when faced with a choice between a raccoon coat and his girlfriend Polly, he is just slightly struggle before he chose the raccoon coat. Thus, Dobby easily gets the right dating with Polly through his shrewd calculation and Petty’s “cooperate perfectly”.

In the eyes of Dobby, Polly pretty beautiful, gentle, but not smart enough. It sounds like a more fair and objective appraise. However, more than in the pursuit of Polly \in essence is not driven by emotion\let him to become “a successful lawyer” which one of the conditions. Dobby believes that \to make a beautiful dumb girl smart than to make a smart ugly girl beautiful easier\achieve the standard of \successful lawyer wife\teach her logic knowledge. Eventually made her eyes shone with a \of wisdom. Dobby is so thankful that his efforts are not in vain and proudly believe that Polly will be his wife in his contented manner.

Everything seems to be going smoothly. Dobby is step by step closer to his anticipatory goal. But when he asked Polly to get steady with him,

Polly refused. And Polly makes full use of what they have learned \logical fallacy\’s declaration of love one by one. We see that Polly seems to become wiser shrewd and it makes Dobby who believes he is enough sharp, smart and confident feels unprepared and embarrassed. Dobby’s shrewd calculation also failed - ultimately Polly chooses Petty, just because Petty has a raccoon coat.

Conclusion, the descriptions of praise by narrator for himself and degrading to Petty and Polly formed the strong sense of irony. Meanwhile, all kinds of repetition in the form of the \logical fallacy\connotation differences make the same concept in different contexts also form a strong sense of irony, especially when Polly dismisses in a joking tone and Dobby explains the logic knowledge with a serious atmosphere forms a sharp contrast; at last, the funny and ridiculous ending also makes the article present a strong sense of irony effect.

Story USES the first-person narration, the narrator more than with their own words and actions shaped self image, the other two characters while under more than vision, but Pettit and Polly each direct language expression still show that their subject position of independence and self-consciousness of free expression. Three people appeared in turn, since said the words, and made their judgment and choice of love. Collisions between characters, the logic is quite ridiculous love essentially the same as the logical fallacy, that is \

deduce the conclusion is necessarily fallacy\

Characters based on the \the character in such aspects as emotional orientation and value judgment of fallacy: the pursuit of personal success by hook or by crook, pursuit vogue, covet material comforts of vanity...

Story characters and the author contrast in terms of emotional standards and value judgments made articles shows deeper meaning: the irony \overall social reality at that time. University campus is often thought of as far away from the hubbub of a piece of pure land, and the pursuit of personal success by hook or by crook, pursuing fashion craze and greed for material comforts a variety of fallacy has filled with the campus, you can imagine the whole social status at that time. Just teasing the author adopted the goodwill and the tone of euphemism to expose and criticize the contemporary American society value of false.
