Identifying Study Preferences in a Student Dialogue
Listen to the following conversation between a student and a classmate discussing study habits.
Student 1: I've recently started studying in the library instead of my dorm room. It really helps me focus.
Student 2: That's interesting! I usually find it difficult to study in the library because it's so quiet. I prefer having some background noise.
Student 1: I get that! But I feel that when it's too quiet, I can really concentrate better on my work.
Student 2: You know, I think it really depends on the person. Some people thrive in silence, while others need a bit of distraction to stay engaged.
Student 1: Exactly! I also think that studying at different times can make a difference, too.
Student 2: For sure! Personally, I like to study at night when everyone else is asleep. It feels like I have the whole world to myself.
