【答案解析】[解析] 30-32
For many international students, coming to the United States and living here and studying can be quite a daunting experience, especially when finding housing on campus or off campus. And fortunately, there are a variety of options that students can look to.
(30) {{U}}First of all for first-time students, coming and living on campus in dormitories can provide a certain level of security because of its proximity to campus facilities{{/U}} since commuting without a car can be quite an experience, especially when you have to commute long distances. Often in dormitories, meals might be provided, and this can allow students to devote time to their academics, rather than housekeeping. (31) {{U}}But students should also be aware that they'll be required to abide by certain regulations dealing with student conduct as part of the contract and living on campus.{{/U}}
Another option is off-campus living in apartments. And like living in dormitories, living in an apartment requires little or no maintenance specifically because usually it is handled by someone else. Also, when you might live off campus, there might be a certain amount of flexibility in choosing roommates that you might not have when living on campus. (32) {{U}}But you should be-aware that tenants may be responsible for furnishing their own apartments.{{/U}}
Of course, the choice is up to you, but be careful to review both the advantages and disadvantages of living on campus and off campus.
