问题     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.
选项
答案 Be assigned a roommate, or choose your own roommate?
    Going to university is an exciting time in a young person’s life. Part of the experience is living in the campus dormitory, and it is the first time for a person away from his/her parents, in many cases. If one has to share a room with another student, I believe that it is better that the university picks the prospective roommate.
    When a young person first goes to university, he/she often moves straight to the school from his/ her bedroom at his/her parents’ house. This usually means that the person has no idea of the qualities necessary to be a good roommate. Perhaps the young person would choose to live with a good friend. While this situation could be a very happy one, it could also be disastrous. Getting along with a friend as a roommate, if not properly handled, could quickly ruin the relationship. If the school picks one’s roommate, this is less likely to happen.
    In many cases, young people travel out of the city they grew up in to go to university. For many of these students, picking a potential roommate would be difficult. They know very few people in the new city, let alone at the university. This can lead to very stressful situations. If one is trying to settle in a new environment, but also must find a roommate to live with, he/she might find the whole experience overwhelming.
    Finally, I think having the school rather than the individuals choose roommates is a good idea because living with a person you do not know can be a rewarding experience. A stranger can quickly turn into one’s best friend, as memories are forged while living together in a confined space.
