TOEFL Speaking Task 2

Campus Announcement: The university will extend the library's hours to 24/7 during finals week. This change aims to provide students with more flexible study spaces. Additionally, the university will increase the number of study rooms available on the second floor. Students are encouraged to use these extended hours responsibly.

Woman: Did you see the announcement about the library? I think it's a great idea. I always struggle to find a quiet place to study late at night, especially before finals. Last semester, I had to study in the dorm lounge, which was really noisy. Now, I can finally use the library whenever I need to. Man: I see your point, but I'm not so sure. I mean, 24/7 might be overkill. The library is already open until 2 a.m. during finals, which is enough for most of us. Also, adding more study rooms might not help because they're often booked by group projects. I'd rather see more individual desks. Woman: But that's exactly why we need 24/7! More hours means less crowding, so we can find a spot even late at night. And the extra study rooms could be used for individual study if they change the booking policy. I think it's worth trying. Man: Maybe you're right, but I just think the money could be spent on better resources, like more computers or updated books.
