TOEFL Устная речь Task 2

Campus Fitness Center Expansion Announcement: Starting next semester, the university will expand the campus fitness center to include a new yoga studio and additional cardio machines. To fund this project, student recreation fees will increase by $25 per semester. The expansion is expected to be completed within one year, and the new facilities will be available to all students.

Student 1: Did you hear about the fitness center expansion? I think it’s a great idea. We really need more space, especially for yoga classes. I had to wait for a spot last semester every time. Student 2: I see the need, but I’m against the fee hike. $25 more per semester is a lot for students already struggling with costs. Plus, they’re only adding a few machines and one studio. Student 1: But think about the long-term benefits. More equipment means shorter wait times for everyone, and yoga is proven to reduce stress, which helps with studying. Student 2: I still think they should have found other funding, like sponsorships, instead of charging us more. It feels unfair.
