原回答：MBC 뉴스 이덕영입니다. The man disagrees with the university's decision for two main reasons. (这里需要用英语回答问题，所以将原文删去并用红色加粗字体写出正确的开头。)

修正后的回答：The man disagrees with the university's decision for two main reasons. First, he believes that the small class size is actually beneficial for students, as it allows them to receive more individualized attention and feedback from the professor. This is crucial for improving their writing skills. Second, he thinks that the alternative option of taking a similar course at State University is not feasible for most students, as it takes more than an hour to get there by bus and many students do not have cars. This would make it very inconvenient for them to travel back and forth between the two universities.

在这个修正后的回答中，我们使用了更高级的词汇，如"individualized attention"（个性化关注）和"feasible"（可行的），同时保持了语句的自然流动。此外，我们还在回答中添加了平滑的过渡和有力的结论，使其更符合TOEFL iBT综合口语评分标准。

Original Answer: The school plans to cancel the poetry writing course from the next year. The university plans to discontinue the poetry writing course starting next year. (将“school”改为“university”，使语境更符合托福考试；将“cancel”改为“discontinue”，更准确地表达课程被取消的意思；将“from the next year”改为“starting next year”，使表达更自然。) It is because of the declining enrollment in recent years, and the students who want to take the course could register similar courses at nearby state universities. This decision is due to declining enrollment in recent years, and students interested in taking the course can enroll in similar courses at nearby state universities. (将“It is because of”改为“This decision is due to”，使表达更清晰；将“the students who want to take the course could register similar courses”改为“students interested in taking the course can enroll in similar courses”，使句子结构更简洁。) However, the man in the conversation totally disagrees with his plan. First of all, he thinks that the small size of the course just made the course worthwhile. This is because the students could get individual intention and feedbacks and comments from the professor, only if it is a small course. Besides, the proposal to nearby university wouldn't work. the suggestion to attend a nearby university is not feasible. (将“the proposal to nearby university wouldn't work”改为“the suggestion to attend a nearby university is not feasible”，使表达更自然。) Most of the students do not have a car, and it will take at least an hour on bus to go to the university. It is really inconvenient and a waste of time during the way.
