Passage
Housing Renovations Planned
Over the last ten years, the number of Central College students living on campus in dormitories has decreased by twenty percent. In an effort to counter act the trend, the college has announced a plan to renovate its on-campus housing. The renovations will take two years, and they will include improvements to the bathrooms, lighting, and heating in the dormitories. “A lot of people are moving off campus because the dorms aren’t in great shape,” explained the college president. “By renovating the dorms, we can make them more appealing than off-campus housing, and more students will choose to remain on campus.”
Conversation
Now listen to two students discussing the college’s plan.
Woman: The college’s making a mistake with this new plan.
Man: What do you mean? I think it will really help the college to accomplish its goals.
Woman: Don’t’ be so sure! All that construction, for two years? It’s gonna create a lot of noise.
Man: Well, you mean in the beginning, for students still living in the dorms.
Woman: Yeah, students who are trying to sleep or do works are constantly going to be disturbed. So, people will try to get as far away as possible, probably by moving off campus. So they are losing even more people!
Man: Huh, I haven’t thought of that. But still, once all the constructions are over, more people will probably want to live in the dorms, right? I mean, the living conditions will be so much better.
Woman: If they can afford to, do you know how the college is planning on paying for this plan? By raisin g the cost of campus housing!
Man: Oh! I didn't realize that.
Woman: Yeah, so if it’s more expensive why would people want to move back into the dorms if they can rent an apartment for less money?
Question
The woman expresses her opinion about the college’s plan. State her opinion and explain the reasons she gives for holding that opinion.
Key Points
1. less on-campus students
2. in bad shape

The woman doesn’t agree with the school’s plan to renovate the on-campus housing. According to the school, more and more students are choosing to live off campus cos their dorms are in poor condition. If they improve the utilities, more students will remain. But the woman points out the constructions will take two years so during this time, those who still live in the dorms would be disturbed by the noise, which would make even more students wanna move away. Besides, she’s not sure that students will come back to live in school even afterthe renovations, when, even the condition is better, the price will behigher . It’s likely they will rent a cheaper apartment off campus instead.
