參考范文
Many students are obliged to share accommodation with others in college. For them, the lack of privacy is the biggest challenge. And there may even be conflicts in the dormitory due to different habits. 1
Despite the above disadvantages, there are still many advantages for sharing a dormitory with others. 2 First 3 , because freshmen are far away from their families and old friends, roommates often become the natural company to conquer the loneliness and homesickness in their new life. Second 3 , since college is not all about study, sharing a room with others provides an opportunity for the students to develop communication skills to deal with different people. Besides 3 , roommates can learn from each other.
In conclusion, I think that there are more advantages than disadvantages in living in college dormitories. So we should learn to overcome the problems that may arise, and make friends with our roommates so as to enjoy a colorful campus life. 4
在大學(xué)里,很多學(xué)生不得不與他人同住。對(duì)他們來說,最大的挑戰(zhàn)是缺少隱私。宿舍成員間甚至?xí)捎谏盍?xí)慣不同而產(chǎn)生沖突。
盡管有以上弊端,與他人同住一個(gè)宿舍仍有諸多益處。首先,大學(xué)新生遠(yuǎn)離家人和老朋友,室友通常會(huì)自然而然地成為他們克服孤獨(dú)和思鄉(xiāng)情緒而迎接新生活的同伴。其次,由于大學(xué)不僅僅是學(xué)習(xí)知識(shí)的地方,而與他人同住也為學(xué)生們提供了一個(gè)可以發(fā)展和不同的人打交道的能力的機(jī)會(huì)。另外,室友們還可以互相學(xué)習(xí)。
總之,我認(rèn)為住學(xué)生宿舍利大于弊。因此我們應(yīng)該學(xué)會(huì)克服可能出現(xiàn)的各種問題,與室友成為好朋友,以便享受多彩的校園生活。
