Campus Bike Sharing

Official Question Material
Prep: Varies

Official Audio Prompt

Three students were talking about whether the school should allow shared bikes on campus. The first student was excited. His dorm is far from his morning class, and shared bikes would help him get there faster without rushing. The second student agreed. He said bikes would help him reach his music club quickly and are cheaper than buying a personal bike-you just scan and pay a small fee. But the third student was worried. He saw someone riding too fast near the cafeteria and almost hitting another student. He said shared bikes could make campus paths unsafe, especially during busy times. The first student suggested adding bike lanes to separate bikes from people walking. The second student added that bikes are better for the environment and reduce parking problems caused by cars. Still, the third student raised concerns about broken bikes and messy parking. He also said bikes could be dangerous in bad weather like rain. To solve this, the first student suggested hiring a team to check and fix bikes daily and adding safety reminders on each bike. The second student liked that and suggested covered bike stations and parking zones near buildings and dorms. Finally, the third student agreed that with proper rules, maintenance, and a safety workshop for students, shared bikes could work well. They all saw that with effective planning, bikes could be safe, beneficial, and easy to use.
