Notice: The university will extend library hours from the current 10 p.m. closing time to midnight on weekdays, starting next semester. This change aims to provide more study time for students, especially during exam periods. The extended hours will be funded by a small increase in the student technology fee, which will rise by $20 per semester.
🎧 Listening Conversation
Man: Did you see the notice about the library hours? I think it's a great idea. I often have to leave the library at 10 and then I can't get any work done in my dorm because my roommate is noisy. Another hour or two would really help me focus.
Woman: I see your point, but I'm not so sure. The extra $20 fee is a bit much, don't you think? I mean, I hardly use the library at night. I prefer studying in the morning. So I'd be paying for something I don't need.
Man: But think about it—during finals, the library is packed even at 10. Many students, like me, rely on it. Plus, the fee is small compared to the benefit of a quiet place to study. I think it's worth it.
❓ Question The man expresses his opinion about the announcement. State his opinion and explain the reasons he gives.
