　　49. 喜歡一個人住還是和室友住

　　I prefer to live with others. First of all, living with someone else won’t make you feel alone, it’s a good way to make friends by sharing experience, opinions and feelings with your roommates. Moreover, living with others helps in teaching you how to get along with different groups of people and how to care and offer helps to others, which will benefit your communication skills. I also believe that living with roommates will make life more alive and interesting. So I’d like someone to live with me.

　　50. 是說願意在辦公室工作還是在家工作，為什麼。

　　①can’t be fully devoted; ②convenient to communicate

　　I rather prefer to work in an office. Firstly, although working at home may be comfortable, it’s difficult for me to be fully-devoted to work. Maybe I’ll want to watch TV, surf the internet or even want to have a sleep during the work time. So it isn’t efficient to work at home. Moreover, it’s more convenient to communicate with your co-workers or boss when you work in an office, thus you can get the assignment more directly and solve problems by negotiating with other employees, which helps you do better and learn faster. So I prefer the traditional way to work in an office.

　　51.Communicate with your family and friends by letter and e-mail or by telephone?

　　I usually communicate with family or friends by telephone. Firstly of all, I feel more close to my family or friends by directly talking to them. Hearing their voices gives me a sense of intimacy, especially for a student far away from home. Furthermore, it’s more efficient to communicate by telephone. I can directly describe my life and receive information about my family or friends in just several minutes, while transferring information by letter or e-mail cost time and energy. So I’d like to choos telephone.
