TPO26口语Task3题目：
Advisor Meetings Should No Longer Be
Required At present, students are required to meet with
their academic advisors before the beginningof every
semester. The advisors help students select courses andadvise
them on graduation r, I don’t see the
point of required meetings, since the necessaryinformation
about the courses is already available on the university’s
Website, which all students have access to. In addition,
eliminating meetings withadvisors would ease the difficulty
that students often have in finding a timeto schedule a
meeting when both they and their advisors are free.
Sincerely,

Conversation
Now listen to two students discussing the letter.
Man: Did you see this letter?
Woman: Yeah, why?
Man: Well, I don’t agree. It’s definitely not the same
thing to just go on the university’s Web site.
Woman: You don’t think so?
Man: No, I mean, sure, the basic information is there, but
that’s not all advisors help you with. Sometimes there’re
different ways you can meet a requirement f or graduation,
like, different classes you can take. And if you talk to someone,
they can help you figure it out.
Woman: And you can’t get that from just reading what’
s on the Web site.
Man: Right, advisors have a lot of expert information so
they make it easier for you to see what your choices are.
Woman: I see what you mean.
Man: And as for scheduling meetings, I’ve never had that
kind of trouble.
Woman: Me neither.
Man: So anyone who does have problems must be
waiting to the last minute to set something up.

Woman: That’s possible.
Man: I mean, the thing is, if you call or go to the office
early enough to set up an appointment, schedules are open.
It’s just that if you wait till the last possible day, it’ll be harder
cause they already have lots of students scheduled then.

The man doesn’t agree with the letter’s proposal no
longer have advisor meetings be required by students.
According to the letter, all the information that a student
needs is already available on the school’s website and all
students have access to this website, but the man says that the
counselors help students find out what classes you need to
take and can provide a student with more detail than the
website. He says the website just doesn’t have enough
information on it. The letter also notes that you wouldn’t have
to worry about the difficulty of scheduling a meeting, but the
3

man points out that he’s never had that problem and that it
only happens to students who wait until the last minute so, if
students just schedule a meeting with their counselor early in
advance, there shouldn’t be any problem.
