试题答案： 答案解析：The college computer lab decides to charge students for printing fee if students print more than ten copies at once. The woman supports the idea. She thinks that students often waste and litter printing paper around because they don’t have a clear idea about how much paper they really need. Charging them some money may help them aware of the problem. Also, since the old one always breaks down, the copy fee can be spent on a new printer, even a fax machine and a copier.

Have you seen some paper are just wasted and littered around M: I think you are right. Why does this happen W: Because when it is free, students tend to print as many as they want without considering whether they really need the information. Some students choose to print out the whole article before they really read it. A lot of resources can be saved if they are aware of the value of the paper and the ink. M: Yeah, they do waste a lot of paper, and charging them some money may help them realize the problem. W: Also. the printer needs to be checked regularly, and if necessary, it should be replaced by a printer that works after some serious breakdowns. The students should not be the ones to wait for several days of repair work. The copy fee can cover this part and the money can be spent on more new equipments, such as a fax machine and a copier. M: I totally agree with what you have said.
