　　Living alone or Living with Roommates

　　Nowadays, there has appeared a heated discussionamong the college students as to whetherthey should live alone outside the campus orlive together with other roommates in the students dormitory. Opinions are divided over the matter.

　　Those who are in favor ofliving alone maintain thatit is very convenient to live by themselves. They can enjoy absolute freedom in a room of their own. They can have their own timetable without disturbing others. They are also free to equip the room with a personal computer so that they can have easy access to the Internet.

　　But others argue thatliving with roommates has attractions of its own. With several students sharing the same room, each persons experiences can be greatly enriched. They can learn a lot from talking to one another. By learning to tolerate the differences between individuals, they can become more mature.

　　As far as Im concerned, I prefer tolive with roommates because I love the feeling of belonging. Besides, it is a lot cheaper to live in a dorm than to rent an apartment outside the campus.

　　点评：本文与校园生活密切相关，也是近年来出现的现象，人们对此的看法各异，2003年后，四级作文考查加大了学校生活类题目的考查，因为这类题材不存在地域的差异，不同地域的同学都有话可说。本预测题即为校园生活类话题，与刚考完的四级作文话题类似，符合命题者出题思路，值得引起重视。
