托福口语 Task 2

Campus Announcement: The university will extend library hours to 24/7 during finals week, starting next Monday. This change aims to provide students with more flexible study spaces. However, to manage costs, the university will reduce the number of study rooms available for group bookings during this period.

M: Did you see the announcement about the library? I think it's a great move. W: Really? I'm not so sure. The 24/7 access sounds nice, but cutting group study rooms is a problem. M: But I rarely use group rooms. I prefer studying alone at night, so the extended hours are perfect for me. W: That's true for you, but many students have group projects during finals. Without enough rooms, we'll struggle to find spaces to collaborate. M: Hmm, I didn't think about that. Still, the library will be open all night, so we can find other quiet spots. W: But group work needs discussion, not quiet spots. Plus, the rooms are often booked weeks in advance, so reducing them will cause conflicts.
