托福口语 Task 2

Campus Announcement: The university will extend the library's opening hours to 24/7 starting next semester to accommodate students' diverse study schedules. This change aims to provide a more flexible and accessible study environment. Additional security and staff will be hired to ensure safety and support during overnight hours.

Woman: Did you see the announcement about the library staying open all night? I think it's a fantastic idea! Man: Really? I'm not so sure. It seems like a waste of resources. Woman: But think about the students who work part-time or have late labs. They often have nowhere to study after 10 p.m. This gives them a quiet place. Man: I guess that's true, but won't it be noisy and crowded at night? I prefer studying in the morning when it's calm. Woman: Actually, the announcement says they're hiring more staff to keep it orderly. Plus, I have a friend who is a night owl; he'd definitely use it. Man: Well, I still think it's unnecessary. Most students can manage with the current hours. Woman: But not all of us—especially during finals week. I remember last semester, the library was packed even at midnight. Man: Okay, I see your point, but I just worry about the cost. Woman: I think it's worth it. Having access to resources anytime is a big plus for our academic success.
