You have 50 seconds to read the letter. Begin reading now.
你有50秒的时间阅读这封信。现在开始计时。
Now listen to two students discussing the letter.
两个学生正在讨论这封信，请听他们的对话。
Woman: I don't like his proposal.
女：我不喜欢他的提议。
Man: Why not? There are never many students there.
男：为什么不喜欢呢？那里从来都没有很多学生啊。
Woman: But that's what I like about it, that it's never crowded.
女：但那正是我喜欢那个地方的原因啊，从来都不拥挤。
Man: Really?
男：真的吗？
Woman: Yeah, so it's a great place to study. I go there a lot.
女：真的，那里很适合学习。我经常去那儿。
I'll read a book or bring my laptop computer and work on a paper for class. It's never very noisy.
我会在那儿看本书，或者把笔记本电脑带去，写写上课要交的论文。那里从来都不会很吵。
Man: You're able to get work done there?
男：你能在那儿写完作业？
Woman: Absolutely! In fact, I actually prefer it to the library as a place to study, and a lot of other students do, too.
女：当然啦！事实上比起图书馆，我更喜欢把那儿当做学习的地方，而且很多其他的学生也是这么认为的。
We even study for our final exams there, and you can eat there while you work, something you can't do with the library.
我们甚至还在那儿复习期末考试呢，而且还可以一边学习一边吃东西，在图书馆可没法这么做。
Man: OK, but you don't actually like the food there, do you? I mean, he said......
男：好吧，但是实际上你并不喜欢那里的食物，对吗？我的意思是，他说......
Woman: Well, I don't think he's been there recently, I mean, it's true that it wasn't that great in the past, but I think it's a lot better now.
女：我觉得他最近一定没有去过那儿，过去那里的东西确实不太好吃，但是我觉得现在已经好多了。
Man: What's changed?
男：有什么不同吗？
Woman: They have a new manager and I guess she's made some improvements in the quality of the food.
女：他们请了一位新的经理，我想她已经采取了一些措施，改善了食物的质量吧。
I was there last week and the food was delicious.
我上个星期还去过那儿呢，东西很好吃啊。
Man: Really?
男：真的吗？
Woman: Yeah, really! And the new manager has also added a lot of really healthful foods and snacks, so the food doesn't just taste good now. It's good for you, too.
女：是真的！而且新来的这位经理还增加了很多非常健康的食物和零食，所以这些吃的现在不仅仅是味道很好，对你的健康也很好。
Man: Hmm, I'll have to try the place.
男：那我改天得去这个地方试试。
