📖 เนื้อเรื่อง
Campus Announcement: Starting next semester, the university will extend library hours to 24/5 (Sunday midnight to Friday midnight) during midterm and final exam weeks. The extended hours will be funded by a small increase in the student technology fee. The library will also add a quiet study floor to accommodate students who prefer silent study environments.

Man: Did you see the announcement about the library? I think it's a great idea. I always struggle to find a quiet place to study during finals. The new quiet floor would be perfect for me. Plus, having the library open all night means I can stick to my study schedule without worrying about being kicked out at midnight.
Woman: I see your point about the quiet floor, but I'm not so sure about the increased fee. I already pay a lot for technology fees, and I rarely use the library's computers. And honestly, I don't think 24/5 is necessary. Most students, including me, prefer to study at home or in dorms. The library is often half-empty even during finals.
Man: But for those of us who live in noisy dorms or off-campus, the library is the only option. And the fee is only $20 per semester, which is worth it for the extra access. Plus, the quiet floor will help you too—you said you get distracted easily.
Woman: Maybe, but I still think it's a waste of money. The university could use that money for more important things like updating the outdated science labs.
