    Now read the letter asking permission for students to park in faculty parking lot. You will have 45 seconds to read the letter. Begin reading now.
                                        Allow Students to Park in Faculty Parking Lot
    I would like to propose that students who live off campus and drive to school be allowed to park in the employee parking lot behind Messner Hall, which is currently reserved for university faculty. Finding a parking spot near the classroom buildings is difficult—we often have to drive around looking for a place to park, which makes us late to class. The faculty lot isn’t fully used—I see a lot of empty spaces there in the morning—and so I don’t think it would be inconvenient for the university to also allow students who drive to school to park there.

    Now listen to two students discussing the letter.
    The woman expresses her opinion about the proposal described in the letter. Briefly summarize the proposal, then state her opinion about the proposal and explain the reasons she gives for holding that opinion.
Now listen to two students discussing the letter.
M: Hey Jane, you drive to school right? Did you see this letter in the paper today?
W: Yeah, but I really don’t see the problem.
M: You don’t have the same problem driving into campus?
W: Um… no. I mean, what he’s not mentioning, or doesn’t seem to realize, is that there’s a special parking lot for students who drive from off-campus homes over by the gym. It’s a little further from the classroom buildings, but it’s only like a ten-minute walk, which isn’t a big deal.
M: Yeah, that’s true. That lot over by the gym. I forgot that was reserved for students who live off-campus.
W: Yeah. I mean, that’s where I park and there’s always plenty of space there, so there’s no reason to struggle to find a space. I think he just wants something closer, so he doesn’t have to walk so far after he parks.
M: Yeah. Although it doesn’t sound like there’d be any harm in opening up the other lot to you guys.
W: Well, no… I think he’s wrong about that. What he’s saying might be true early in the morning, when not all the professors have arrived, but when I’ve seen that lot at midday it’s usually pretty packed with cars.
M: Oh, so there wouldn’t be enough space.
W: No, not if students parked there too.

答案     A student proposed that the faulty parking lot should be open to students who live off-campus, because they have trouble in finding a parking place in the morning. However, there’re always empty places in the faulty parking lot. The woman thinks that this is not a problem, as there’s already a special parking lot reserved for students living off-campus, which is a ten-minute walk from the classroom buildings. Besides, although the faculty parking lot is relatively empty in the morning, it usually becomes crowded with cars at noon. This is probably because professors will have arrived on campus by that time. If the faculty parking lot is open to students, professors will find it difficult to park their cars.
