TOEFL 말하기 Task 2

Campus Notice: The university will extend the library's opening hours to 24/7 starting next semester. This change aims to accommodate students' varying study schedules and increase access to resources during exam periods. However, to manage costs, the university will reduce the number of printing stations available in the library.

Student 1: Did you see the announcement about the library going 24/7? I think it's a great idea! Student 2: Really? I'm not so sure. I mean, more hours might help some, but cutting printing stations is a problem. I often need to print my essays right before deadlines, and with fewer stations, I'll waste time waiting. Student 1: But think about the flexibility—you can study at 3 a.m. if you want. Plus, they're not eliminating printing entirely, just reducing the number. Most students use laptops now. Student 2: That's true, but many of us still rely on printing for assignments. And the library is already crowded during finals; longer hours won't help if we can't print efficiently. Student 1: I see your point, but for me, the extended hours outweigh the printing issue. I often study late, and this will reduce my stress about finding a quiet place. Student 2: Fair enough, but I still think they should keep the printing stations as they are.
