Plans for Campus Gym
The recreational services department will receive special funding from this year’s budget to increase the number of exercise machines in the campus gym. The increase is in response to numerous student complaints regarding the insufficient number of machines available. Recreational services department agrees that, due to an increase in university enrollment, more students are using the gym. They, therefore, welcomed the proposal, adding that it would encourage even more students to exercise and would help to promote a healthier lifestyle among students.
Listen to Track 100.
The woman expresses her opinion about the plan described in the announcement. Briefly summarize the plan. Then state her opinion about the plan and explain the reasons she gives for holding that opinion.
Narrator
Listen to two students discussing the plan.
Male student
Hey, have you read about this ... the plans for the gym?
Female student
Yeah, but I could sure think of better things to do with the money.
Male student
You’re kidding. I thought you’d be all for it. You go to the gym all the time.
Female student
Yeah, but I never have any problem. Sure there’re a lot of people there but I never have to wait to use the exercise bikes, or even the weight machines. Do you?
Male student
Not really. It’s not that busy.
Female student
The other thing is . .. well, we have all sorts of exercise programs, a terrific swimming pool that’s always open, great running paths, all kinds of sports teams. I’m just saying that a bunch of new machines in the gym aren’t gonna make any difference. People like to get their exercise in different ways . . . and on this campus there’re already plenty of choices.
Male student
You may be right. ..

答案
First, as the question states, you should provide a brief summary of the university’s plan, which is to increase the number of exercise machines in the gym. You can also provide a brief summary of the reasons that they’re doing this: 1)fewer machines are available because of increased student enrollment, and 2)it will encourage more students to exercise. You should not spend too much time on this summary; if you attempt to provide many details from the reading, you may not have enough time to discuss both of the woman’s reasons for disagreeing with the proposal. For this item type, a brief summary is all that is necessary. You should make sure that your summary is clear enough for the listener to understand the proposal without having access to additional information. After the summary, you should state the woman’s opinion of the university’s plan to add exercise machines. In this case, the woman disagrees with the university’s plan. You should then convey the two main reasons she gives for holding that opinion. You will need to connect information from the conversation to the reading in order for the response to be complete. The woman disagrees with the first point about fewer machines being available. She says even though she does see more people in the gym, she does not have to wait to use the equipment. Your response should also convey the woman’s second reason for not agreeing with the university’s plan. She thinks that adding new machines would not encourage more people to exercise. She says that the university already provides enough opportunities for students to exercise and have a healthy lifestyle. For example, there’s a swimming pool, running paths, and sport teams. Your response should be intelligible, should demonstrate effective use of grammar and vocabulary, and should be well developed and coherent.
