TOEFL Speaking Task 2

Campus Announcement: Starting next semester, the university will extend library hours to 24/7 during finals week. Additionally, a new quiet study floor will be added to reduce noise distractions. The administration believes these changes will better support students' academic success.

Woman: Did you see the announcement about the library? I'm really excited about the 24/7 hours during finals. Last semester, I had to leave at midnight when I was in the middle of reviewing, and it broke my concentration. Man: I get that, but I'm not so sure. I mean, 24/7 is nice, but the quiet floor? That's not enough. The real problem is the group study areas are too loud, and they're right next to the quiet zones. Adding one more floor won't fix that. Woman: Well, I think it's a step in the right direction. And the extended hours are crucial for night owls like me. Plus, they said the new floor will have stricter noise rules, so it might actually be quieter. Man: Maybe, but I still think they should focus on better enforcing rules on existing floors instead of just adding another one. Still, I'll use the 24/7 hours, I admit that helps.
