NARRATOR：

Now listen to two students discussing the letter.

FEMALE STUDENT：

I don't like his proposal.

MALE STUDENT：

Why not? There are never many students in there.

FEMALE STUDENT：

But that's what I like about it...

that it's never crowded.

MALE STUDENT：

Really?

FEMALE STUDENT：

Yeah, so it's a great place to study.

I go there a lot...I'll read a book or bring my laptop computer and work on a paper for class.

It's never very noisy.

MALE STUDENT：

You're able to get work done there?

FEMALE STUDENT：

Absolutely!

In fact, I actually prefer it to the library as a place to study...

and a lot of other students do too.

We even study for our final exams there.

And you can eat there while you work, something you can't do at the library.

MALE STUDENT：

OK, but you don't actually like the food there, do you? I mean, he said...

FEMALE STUDENT：

[interrupting] 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.

MALE STUDENT：

What's changed?

FEMALE STUDENT：

They have a new manager, and I guess she's made some improvements in the quality of the food.

I was there last week and the food was delicious.

MALE STUDENT：

[slightly skeptical] Really?

FEMALE STUDENT：

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.

MALE STUDENT：

Hmm. I'll have to try the place.
