📖 Reading Passage
Campus Fitness Center to Extend Hours Starting Next Month. Beginning March 1st, the university fitness center will be open from 6:00 AM to midnight, Monday through Sunday. This change aims to accommodate students with varying schedules, especially those with early morning or late evening classes. Additionally, the center will introduce new weekend fitness classes, including yoga and spin, to encourage more students to use the facility during less busy times.
🎧 Listening Conversation
M: Did you see the announcement about the fitness center extending hours? I think it's a great idea.
W: Really? I'm not so sure. The extra hours might just mean more staffing costs, which could lead to higher fees for us.
M: But think about the convenience! I have a lab that ends at 10 PM, and now I can actually go to the gym after that. Plus, the new weekend classes sound awesome.
W: I see your point about late hours, but I doubt many students will use the gym at midnight. And the classes are only on weekends, which are already the busiest times. I think they should focus on adding more equipment instead.
