國際學生到美國來的人接觸到了許多新的經(jīng)驗之一是有一個室友第一次!住在大學宿舍或宿舍時，學生往往有一個或兩個其他人誰將會成為他們的室友配對。大多數(shù)新生將不會有機會挑選自己的室友，而是與一個隨機個體意義的室友有時很難配對。個人與室友第一次注意到這些項目可以采取有助于使新的生活情況變得更容易一些：

　　個人空間

　　習慣生活在同一個房間，別人可以有自己的房間被用來為許多國際學生很難。無論是學生和他們的室友將需要個人空間和私人時間，這是一個好主意，有個人空間成立初期設定界限。窺探通過一個室友的東西，或借衣服和食物不經(jīng)允許，這不是一個好主意。室友給他們應得的空間，你想被如何對待與尊重對待他們。如果兩個室友可以按照這個規(guī)則，沒準將形成密切的債券。

　　會有差異

　　有室友都會有不同的意見或利息比另一個是一個很好的機會，但它仍然是值得去了解彼此的。室友進來許多不同的形狀和大小，還有那些在宿舍里很多的人，和那些你很少看到。有些是真正進入學者，有的則是更進課外活動。論據(jù)之間的室友最常見的來源之一是清潔。如果一個室友喜歡比其他更整潔的空間，它往往會造成問題。即使室友可能不一樣，它仍然是一個很大的機會，在大學的第一位朋友。一個室友是找人傾訴，一起吃飯，一起學習，甚至只是打發(fā)時間的人。

　　英文原文：

　　One of the many new experiences that international students who come to the US are exposed to is having a roommate for the first time! When living in the college dorms or residence halls, students are often paired with one or two other individuals who will become their roommate. Most incoming freshmen will not have the opportunity to pick their roommate, and are instead paired with a random individual- meaning having a roommate can sometimes be difficult. Individuals with a roommate for the first time can take note of these items to help make the new living situation a little easier:

　　Personal Space

　　Getting used to living in the same room as someone else can be hard for many international students who are used to having their own room. Both the student and their roommate will require personal space and private time- it’s a good idea to have personal space established early on by setting boundaries right away. It’s not a good idea to snoop through a roommate’s things or borrow clothes and food without asking for permission. Its best to give a roommate the space they deserve, and treat them with the respect you want to be treated with. If both roommates can follow this rule, chances are a close bond will be formed.

　　There Will Be Differences

　　There is a good chance that roommates will have different views or interest than one another, but it is still worth getting to know one another. Roommates come in many different shapes and sizes, there are those who are in the dorm a lot, and those that you rarely see. Some are really into academics; while others are more into the extra-curricular activities available. One of the most common sources of arguments amongst roommates is cleaning. If one roommate prefers a more tidy space than the other, it often causes problems. Even though the roommates may not be alike, it’s still a great chance to make that first friend in college. A roommate is someone to talk to, someone to eat with, study with or even just pass the time with.
