TOEFLスピーキング Task 2

To better support students during final exams, the university library will extend its hours to 24/7 from December 10 to December 20. Additionally, a new quiet study zone will be added on the third floor, and free coffee will be provided in the lobby from 8 PM to midnight. These changes aim to reduce stress and accommodate diverse study schedules.

W: Did you see the library announcement? I'm really excited about the extended hours! I'm a night owl, and during finals, I often can't find a place to study late. This is perfect for me. M: I get that, but I'm not so sure. I mean, the 24-hour access might be noisy. I prefer studying in the morning when it's quiet. Also, the free coffee is only at night. I don't drink coffee then. W: Well, they added the quiet zone on the third floor, so noise shouldn't be a problem. And for me, the coffee is a great bonus to stay awake during late-night study sessions. Plus, with more hours, I won't have to rush to finish my work before closing time. M: I suppose for you it's helpful. But for me, the extended hours don't change anything. I usually finish by 9 PM. And the free coffee at night isn't useful. I'd rather they spent money on more study spaces during the day. W: But for many students like me, it's a big improvement. I think it's a great move overall.
