Dormitory Noise Regulations and Student Experiences

Medium Integrated Speaking Task Read-listen-speak

Read the following excerpt from a university regulation regarding dormitory living:

"Residents are required to maintain a quiet atmosphere in the dormitory to ensure all students can study and rest. Noise levels must be kept to a minimum after 10 PM. Any resident found violating this regulation may face disciplinary action, including warnings or even eviction."

Now, listen to a conversation between two students discussing their experiences with noise in the dormitory:

"Student A: I don’t know why people don’t take the quiet hours seriously. Last week, my roommate had friends over and they were laughing and playing music until midnight. I could hardly focus on my studies. "

"Student B: I totally get that. I had a similar situation a few nights ago. I had an exam the next day, and someone was blasting their music. It’s so frustrating!"

Using the information from the reading passage and the conversation, summarize the dormitory noise regulations and discuss how students feel about the enforcement of these rules.

Note: This question has been adapted from its original format to accommodate a reading-based version. In the official TOEFL exam, speaking and listening sections require verbal responses and audio prompts, which are not represented here. Please note that this adaptation may not fully reflect the nature or difficulty of the official exam. The audio feature for these sections will be available soon.
