Students Discuss History Project Topics
Listen to a conversation between two students discussing their upcoming project for a history class. The male student suggests that they focus on the impact of the Industrial Revolution on modern society, while the female student proposes examining its effects on labor rights specifically. They both consider the implications of each topic.
After listening to the conversation, summarize the students' main ideas and indicate which topic you think would be more interesting to explore. Explain why you think that topic is important.
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.
