　　TPO17口语Task3题目： 　　Passage 　　New Library Workspaces 　　Say good-bye to the big, multi person study tables in Turner library. This summer, the tables will be exchanged for new personal study cubicles—small, one-person desks enclosed by walls. These new units will allow students to have privacy and work in isolation and will therefore eliminate noise in the library so students can concentrate. Additionally, the cubicles will enable the library to accommodate the recent increase in the number of students attending our university. Although the current tables seat six students each, they make poor use of available floor space. The cubicles, on the other hand, are designed for maximum space efficiency, and the library can therefore add 50 new seats. 　　Conversation 　　Now listen to two students discussing the announcement. 　　Man: They’re making a mistake. 　　Woman: What do you mean? 　　Man: Look, They’re trying to do away with distractions so that we can study better. But with this change, we won’t have anywhere in the library to get together to work on group projects. 　　Woman: True. Group project work is common these days. 　　Man: So, instead of buying these new units. They should use the money to build meeting rooms, and that would reduce any noise in the main library areas. 　　Woman: Yeah, that’s what we could really use. There’s just not as much need to work in isolation. 　　Man: Exactly. And the other thing is, what’s this about overcrowding? Well, sure we have more students enrolled in the university this year, but do we really have a problem with overcrowding? 　　Woman: I don’t think so. I always get a whole table to myself. 　　Man: Right. I see empty tables there all the time. It’ll just be a waste of money to replace what we have. Since what we have now is sufficient for the amount of students that use the library. 　　Question 　　The man expresses his opinion about the upcoming change. State his opinion and explain the reasons he gives for holding that opinion. 　　Key Points 　　1. concentrate 　　2. more students 　　TPO17口语Task3参考答案(范文模板)： 　　The man doesn’t agree with the schools plan to replace all the study tables with cubicles in the library. According to the school, the cubicles will enable students to have more privacy and also get rid of a lot of the noise so that they can study better, but the man says that if the tables are gone, it will be impossible for students to work on group-projects. So he thinks that instead of spending money on cubicles, the school should spend it on building meeting rooms, which would reduce noise in the library. The school also notes that the tables don’t make good use of space, so replacing them with cubicles will add more study space and accommodate the increasing number of students enrolled at the school, but the man points out that there really isn’t a space problem and he always sees empty tables there, so he feels replacing the tables would just be waste of money.
