生活英语口语:住在学校里

L: what's your apartment like?
H: it's furnished two bedroom flat in a three-story building on campus.
L: what is it like living in on-campus housing?
H: it's not as bad as I thought it would be. The freshmen that live nearby are really loud, especially on the weekends. But, the rent is much cheaper than private housing, so it's worth it.
L: did you have to pay a deposit?
H: no, but we do have to pay 9 months rent in 6 months, so for the first months we pay 1/2 month's rent each month.
L: do you have to pay utilities on top of your monthly rent?
H: no, it's all included. Besides, students don't have to pay council tax, so we're saving quitea bit of money by living here.
L: how long is your contract for?
H: that's the bad thing---the contract ends in June, so we'll have to find a new apartment soon.
L: have you started looking again yet?
H: not yet. I'm hoping we'll be able to find something cheap once all the students leave the city for the summer.
L: Good luck!
