托福考试口语真题及答案19:对学校要禁止在草坪上踢足球的讨论

Reading:【学校通知】学校要禁止在草坪上踢足球。原因有二: 一是影响学校形象,好 像学校学生不知道学习似的,二是这些学生扔的垃圾也对学校不好。
Listening:【学生议论】女生不同意。
原因有二:
1)学习和锻炼都很重要,不能说因为进行体育活动,就显示出学校不重视学习。
2)那些乱扔的垃圾主要是那些在草坪上吃午饭的人们,与踢球的学生们无关。

参考答案:
In the reading material,Southern university is considering restrictions on sport activities.

In the listening material, we clearly learn that the woman doesn't think the announcement makes any sense. One reason she gives is that students should have sport activities even though Southern University is a very formal academic institution. Actually sport is regarded as important as academics. Another reason is based on the fact that she thinks many visitors are attracted to Southern University not only because of its academic reputation but also because of its famous sport spirits. As for littering, she thinks once the school starts to put more trash bins a-round,things will be much better.

Therefore,she disagrees with that opinion.
