参考范文

Renting an Apartment off Campus

Nowadays, an increasing number of college students would rather rent an apartment off campus than live in a dormitory. This phenomenon has raised considerable concern among parents and college faculties about living off campus, which is caused by the following reasons.

To begin with, living conditions of an apartment off campus may be better than those of a dormitory. A rented apartment is often equipped with an independent washroom and a shower equipment which may be of great advantage over the school dormitory. In general, a typical dormitory often accomodates four or six, or even eight students and it is too crowded and noisy for those who prefer private space as well as quiet circumstances. In addition, instead of being regulated by dormitory rules, students may enjoy more freedom in a rented apartment.

If college students intend to rent an apartment, I think they should give top priority to safety. It is important to make a survey of the surroundings first to ensure the security. Besides, when they tend to enjoy the freedom, they should have a better sense of self-control and make good use of their time.

Script

M: Susan, going back to school can be much fun for children, can't it?

W: It's most certainly not. In fact, for some children, it can be very upsetting. That feeling of going back to a routine is stressful. They have to adapt to a new timetable and the stress.

M: So is there a way to make starting up again easier after the summer break?

W: Yes, there're things that you can do. I mentioned routine before and that's the key. It's difficult to get back into a routine. So you need to try and prepare for it.

M: How to do that?

W: Well, sleep is the most important factor. During holidays, you don't have a proper sleeping routine. You get up when you want and you go to bed when you want.

M: I suppose that is why children love holidays.

W: Yeah, but it makes going back to school much more difficult. You need to enforce a bedtime routine at least a few days before your children go back to school. Also prepare everything the night before. Make sure you have all the clothes laid out to help avoid any early morning panic.

M: That makes sense. After all, the mornings are the hardest part. So what else can we do?
