Original Answer: The psychology department is going to require psychology graduate students give lectures about topics they are researching. The psychology department plans to have graduate students give lectures on their research topics. (修改了句子结构，使其更自然) And the woman in the listening part likes this idea because firstly she says that it's very helpful for graduate students since they would have opportunity to give lectures to people who know little about their subjects instead of talking to professors or their classmates which they always do previously. The woman in the listening part supports this plan, stating that it is beneficial for graduate students as they will have the chance to present their research to a broader audience, rather than just discussing it with professors and classmates as they usually do. (修改了句子结构，使其更清晰) Secondly, she thinks that it will help graduate students who want to continue their study to figure out what they are interested in because they have no chance to see what graduate students work on. Furthermore, she believes that this will assist undergraduate students in determining their interests and understanding the work of graduate students, as they currently have limited exposure to such research. (修改了句子结构，使其更连贯)

Revised Answer (140 words): The psychology department plans to have graduate students give lectures on their research topics. The woman in the listening part supports this plan, stating that it is beneficial for graduate students as they will have the chance to present their research to a broader audience, rather than just discussing it with professors and classmates as they usually do. Furthermore, she believes that this will assist undergraduate students in determining their interests and understanding the work of graduate students, as they currently have limited exposure to such research. This initiative will not only help graduate students improve their public speaking skills but also provide valuable insights for undergraduates considering pursuing a graduate degree. Overall, the woman's opinion is that the lecture series will be advantageous for both graduate and undergraduate students in terms of skill development and knowledge acquisition.
