请各位帮忙修改:住校还是在校外租房
Every freshman may be faced with this problem when they first get into the college: living on campus in a dormitory or living off the campus in an apartment? It's quite a hard decision because both of them have their own benefits.
To start with,I want to talk about the advantages of living in dormitory.
Firstly, it can save a lot of money and trouble. The average house rental in Beijing now has reached 1000 yuan per month, while accommodation fee in campus only costs 1500 yuan per year. Considering the general financial pressure among college students, this price is too high for them to afford. Moreover, choosing to live outside campus means you have to do all the cooking, laundry, cleaning and other housework by yourself. These trivial things may take up too much time and abstract students’ energy from study.
Secondly, life is more convenient when living in campus. In the morning, students don't need to get up early to catch bus for the first class. In the evening, they don't need to rush home so that they can make full use of library, gyms, science laboratories and other facilities provided by school.
Last but not least, to most of the students, college is more than a place to learn expertise and book knowledge. It also provides students with a good opportunity to gain interpersonal communication skills. Elder people always say that school is a small society and dormitory is the core of this small society. The dormitory is usually arranged by school and students never know who they will stay with until they get to the dorm. By living together, students can help each other, share happiness and sorrows, and finally become life-long friends. If someone is ill, having a roommate to take care of him is obviously better than managing all by oneself.
When it comes to renting a house outside campus, although I don't prefer this way, I have to admit that it does have some advantages over living in dormitory. For example, students may have more private space and are free to do whatever they want without worrying about disturbing others. Also, to have an experience of independent living at a young age is not a bad thing.
However, since I am a person who is more than willing to spend my time with friends rather than stay alone, I will probably choose to live in a dormitory after I am admitted by college.
