考研英语作文范文155篇(72)自主选择舍友

　　72 You have been told that dormitory rooms at your university must be shared by two students. Would you rather have the university assign a student to share a room with you, or would you rather choose your own roommate? Use specific reasons and details to explain your answer. 　　Id rather have the university assign a roommate to share a room with me. As far as Im concerned, this is part of the university experience. Students should meet new people and be open to new experiences. I like leaving this up to chance. 　　Actually, even though the university will choose, its not totally a matter of chance. We all filled out information sheets. The school knows what were majoring in, what our interests are, and our study habits and our goals. I think theyre probably very good at matching roommates using this information. Theyve had a lot of practice. Besides, if a mistake is made, I can change my room assignment next semester. 　　If I did want to choose my own roommate, Id first pick some candidates from the list supplied by the university. Then Id write to them and theyd write back. Through our letters, wed find out if we shared common interests, such as sports or movies. More importantly, wed find out if we like doing the same things in our free time. Because my investigation, Id probably get someone compatible with me. Its a lot of work to go through, though. Besides, the process of finding similar interests isnt all that different from what the university does. 　　Trying to predict whom Im going to get along with is not a science. I might choose someone who sounds just like me and still find that the two of us just dont get along as roommates. Besides, I think it would be boring to room with somebody whos just the same as me. Id rather be with someone who has different interests and likes to do different things. Maybe Id even get a roommate from another culture. After all, one of the reasons Im going to the university is to be exposed to a lot of new experiences. So, Id rather have the university choose my roommate for me.
