TOEFL Устная речь Task 2

Campus Announcement: Starting next semester, the university will extend library hours to 24/7 during finals week. Additionally, a new quiet study floor will be added to reduce noise distractions. The extension aims to accommodate students' diverse study schedules and improve academic performance.

Man: Did you see the announcement about the library? I think it's a great idea. Woman: Really? I'm not so sure. 24/7 hours during finals just means more noise and crowding, and the quiet floor won't help if people don't follow the rules. Man: But the quiet floor is specifically designed to enforce silence, and they'll hire more monitors. Plus, having 24/7 access means I can study at 3 a.m. when I'm most focused, without worrying about being kicked out. Woman: I get that, but the real issue is that most students study during the day, so extending hours won't benefit the majority. And the cost of extra staff and security could be spent on more useful resources like more books or tutoring. Man: I see your point, but for students with part-time jobs or those who are night owls, this is a lifesaver. And the quiet floor will actually make studying more efficient, so I'm all for it.
