Female:
|
Hello, did you see the announcement about the access card renewal? |
|
Male:
|
Yes, I did. I don’t think it’s a good idea. |
|
Female:
|
Why do you think so? |
|
Male:
|
First of all, they informed us too late. It’s already June 25 and we have classes during weekdays. We need to arrange our schedule before going to the admin office since they are only open from 9:00-15:00 on weekdays. |
|
Female:
|
True. I need to check my class schedule before going to the admin office. |
|
Male:
|
Right? They should open their office during weekends, so students can pick up their new access cards in their free time. |
|
Female:
|
I agree. We don’t have classes during weekends. |
|
Male:
|
Also, the required deposit is expensive for us. How many of us can prepare 50$ in 5 days? They should have consulted us before requiring any payment. |
|
Female:
|
You are right. But we can still find ways to prepare $50 by June 30. |
|
Male:
|
Yeah, I may ask for money from my sister. Nonetheless, I will ask the admin office to hear from us before making a new regulation next time. |

SAMPLE ANSWERS
|
A female student and a male student are talking about an announcement made by the admin office.
|
|
According to the announcement, all student tenants are required to renew their dormitory access cards by June 30 due to security purposes.
|
|
The male student disagrees with the admin’s announcement and gives two reasons why he is against it.
|
|
First, he thinks that it’s too late to inform students 5 days before the due date. He defends that they should open the admin office on weekends because students have classes during weekdays.
|
|
Second, he adds that the 50$ deposit is expensive. He complains that the admin should hear from students before they require any payments from them.
|
|

This is to notify everyone about the cafeteria renovation.
| To expand space and improve students’ convenience, we will renovate the cafeteria from September 3 – September 30. On these dates, students will not be able to enter the cafeteria. In line with this, the management will provide 2 food trucks on weekdays at 11:30-13:30. |
| We also advise students to bring their own lunch because the food trucks will have limited food supply. |
| Should you have any questions please feel free to contact the management office. |

Female:
|
Hi, have you seen the announcement about the cafeteria renovation? |
|
Male:
|
Yes, I saw it this morning. I don’t like it. |
|
Female:
|
Why don’t you like it? |
|
Male:
|
First, it says that they will renovate the cafeteria to improve students’ convenience, won’t they? |
|
Female:
|
Yes, they will. |
|
Male:
|
Closing the cafeteria for a month will be more inconvenient than our current situation because we only have one cafeteria in this college. I also think it has enough space already. |
|
Female:
|
That’s true. We haven’t had a hard time finding a space in the cafeteria. |
|
Male:
|
Also, it’s unrealistic. I don’t think two food trucks could cater enough foods to all 600 students in this college. They said the foods are in limited supply, it means students who have classes before lunch time won’t be able to buy food. |
|
Female:
|
Yeah, that would be a problem because I have morning classes every day. |
|
Male:
|
It means almost everyone needs to bring lunch every day. I will ask them to have more food trucks to cater to all the students. I hope they grant my request. |
