TOEFLスピーキング Task 2

Campus Notice: Starting next semester, the university library will extend its opening hours to 24/7 during midterm and final exam weeks. Additionally, a new quiet study floor will be added on the fourth floor, requiring all users to maintain silence. The extension aims to accommodate increased student demand for late-night study spaces.

Man: Did you see the library announcement? I think it's a great idea, especially the 24/7 hours during exams. Last semester, I had to leave at midnight when I was cramming for finals, and it really broke my concentration. Now I can stay as long as I need. Woman: True, but what about the quiet floor? I mean, won't that reduce the total study space? The fourth floor was already a mixed-use area with group study rooms. Man: Actually, they're converting the fourth floor entirely to quiet study, but they're adding more group study rooms on the first floor. So the overall capacity increases. Plus, having a dedicated quiet floor helps those who need absolute silence, like me. I get distracted easily, so I'd definitely use it.
