托福口语 Task 2

Campus Announcement: The university will extend library hours to 24/7 during the final exam period (from the last week of classes through the end of exams). This change aims to provide more flexible study spaces for students. However, to ensure safety and reduce noise, the library will require students to show their student IDs after midnight, and quiet study areas will be strictly enforced.

Woman: Did you see the announcement about the library staying open all night during finals? Man: Yeah, I think it's a great idea! I'm always stressed about finding a quiet place to study late. Woman: True, but requiring student IDs after midnight seems like a hassle. Man: Actually, that's a good thing—it keeps the library safe and ensures only students are using the facilities. Woman: I guess. But what about the strict quiet rules? Some people like to study in groups. Man: That's exactly why I support it! I can't focus when there's chatter. With strict quiet hours, I can finally concentrate. Woman: Hmm, I see your point. But I still think it limits flexibility for group work. Man: Well, for me, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. I'll be able to study all night without distractions.
