TOEFL Speaking Task 2

Campus Notice: The university will extend the library's operating hours to 24/7 during final exam week, starting from next Monday. Additionally, a new quiet study zone will be added on the third floor. These changes aim to provide students with more flexible study options and reduce noise disturbances.

Student 1: Did you see the announcement about the library? I think it's a great idea! I often study late at night, especially before finals. Having 24/7 access means I won't have to rush home or find a café that's open. It will really help me focus. Student 2: I see your point, but I'm not so sure. I mean, the 24/7 schedule is nice, but what about the new quiet zone? I think it's unnecessary. We already have enough quiet areas in the library. Instead, they should have added more group study rooms, because many students work together on projects. The third floor could have been better used for that. Student 1: Well, I disagree. I think the quiet zone is exactly what we need. Sometimes it's too noisy even in the so-called quiet areas. I've had trouble concentrating there. Plus, with more students using the library at night, a dedicated quiet space will ensure everyone can study without distractions.
