Now listen carefully.
W: Look! It is time!
M: What
W: Oh, I mean the school is doing the right thing by building a new art building. The old one has been long criticized by arts professors and applied arts students for being too dark. You know, good art buildings must have large and bright windows.
M: Well, I don’t quite get it. If it is simply too dark, why don’t you turn on the lights
W: Aha, you don’t practice drawing, do you Look, when you are drawing a picture, it’s really important to have plenty of natural light because artificial light always makes it difficult to catch the real color.
M: Now, I see. I’m sorry I didn’t know it before. You know I am not an artist. So the university is really doing a good thing this time.
W: That is right! We all know that the arts professors here are really the first-rate, but the old run-down building doesn’t seem to match our reputation at all. You know that community college across the town Their arts department is not as good as ours. But because they have a splendid, new art building, many prospective students choose to go there for this reason. So I am pretty sure that the new building is also helpful in attracting new students.

整合笔记，最终开口 Sample answer:
According to the announcement, we get to know that the university is considering building a new art building to meet today’s requirements and to attract more students.
From the conversation, the woman thinks the university is doing the right thing. One reason she gives is that the old building is too dark and doesn’t have large and bright windows to let the natural light in. She also mentions that it’s really important to have plenty of natural light when drawing a picture because the artificial light always makes it difficult to catch the real color.
Another reason is that the new art building is helpful to attract new students. She claims that the old run-down building doesn’t match the reputation of the arts professors here because they are really the first-rate. She also points out that many prospective students choose to the neighboring college just because of their splendid new art building.
Therefore, she thinks it’s a good idea to construct a new art building.

Instructions
All Freshmen May Live on Campus
Beginning next semester, all freshmen will be eligible to live in student dormitories on campus.
The previous rule not guaranteeing on-campus housing for freshmen has been changed due to the numerous complaints by both students and parents. This new regulation will permit first-year students more easily to form study group with their peer on campus. This should enable them to improve their overall grade point averages. Additionally, the university has determined there is enough space in school parking lots to accommodate the extra cars that will be parked there by freshmen, so parking will not be an issue to
consider.
