Accommodation这个话题很高频，但依然有很多童鞋不会表达！

今天汪哥带大家看看很local的一种表达。

Part1

Do you live in a house or an apartment?

Actually I live on campus … in a single room in halls of residence … all first year students are encouraged to do that as they’re close to the university … next year I plan to move into student digs in town.

to live on campus: to live on the university or college groun

dssingle room: a room for one person

hall of residence: a college or university building where

students livestudent digs: student accommodation

Tell me about where you live.

I live with my parents in the suburbs of Madrid … we only moved in recently … in fact we had a house-warming party just a few weeks ago …

the suburbs: a residential area on the edge of towns or cities(郊区）

house-warming party: a party to celebrate moving into a new home

What kind of accommodation do most people live in in your city?

你们城里的人大部分都住啥样的房纸啊？

In the city itself the majority of people live in apartment blocks … that’s what surprised me about England … most people seem to live in terraced houses with lovelyback gardens …

apartment block: a large building made up of smaller units of apartments

terraced house: a house connected on both sides by other properties（排屋）

Part2

Describe a house or an apartment you would like to live in.

You should say...

what kind of accommodation it would be...

where it would bewho would live there with you...

and say why you would enjoy living in this place.

I think most people when answering this question would say they’d like to live in a big detached house with spacious rooms … views of the countryside and so on … but actually my ideal home would be a lot different … I’ve always loved the idea of having a mobile home … a really expensive one with all the mod cons … so I could live wherever I wanted or at least have lots of holidays and be able to take all my home comforts with me whenever I travelled … I realise this would have to be a second home as I’d need a base … a permanent address … but the mobile home would be the accommodation I’d find it exciting to live in … I suppose once I settle down and have children I’ll want to get on the property ladder … I’ll be like everyone else … saving up to put down a deposit on a house or an apartment … I don’t think my family would want to live in a mobile home … but I like to think I’ll still keep that dream home in mind …

detached house:a house that is not physically connected to another property(独立式住宅)

spacious room: a large room

ideal home: a perfect home

mobile home: a home that can be moved by a vehicle or one that has its own engine

(all the) mod cons: technology at home that makes jobs easier such as a washing machine dishwasher etc.(现代化生活设备)

home comforts: things that make a home feel comfortable to live in

permanent address: a fixed address

to get on the property ladder: to buy a property with the aim of buying another bigger or more expensive one later in life

to put down a deposit: to pay an amount of money as the first in a series of future payments

Part3

Is it better to own your own home or to rent?

买房好还是租房好？

I think both have their advantages … living in rented accommodation isn’t necessarily a bad thing … you don’t have a huge debt like you do when you take out a mortgage but I suppose the property market offers you an investment for the future … I’m sure that’s why most people prefer to own their own home …

to take out a mortgage: to borrow a large amount of money paid back over several years in order to buy a house

property market: the buying and selling of land or buildings

What options are available to young couples looking for accommodation in your country?

在你们国家，对于找房的年轻夫妇有哪些选择？

If they want to buy their own home it isn’t easy for first-time buyers … mortgages are hard to get so most people live with their parents or in rented accommodation … but that can also be very expensive … you often have to pay rent in advance … and if the accommodation isn’t fully furnished you have the expense of buying furniture .

to pay rent in advance: weekly or monthly rent paid at the beginning of the week or month

fully-furnished: a rented property with all furniture included
