Is living with your classmates good or bad? Listen to what some students say:
Shen Xinbai: Living with our classmates is good for us. We can make more friends and do fun things together. We won't watch as much TV as we do at home.
Chen Rujian: I want to live at school. That would help me in many ways. It would give me a stronger heart. I would also have more chances to decide things by myself. Living at school can help us get ready for future life outside school.
Xia Mingyuan: It's a good idea to live at school. Students can learn how to take care of themselves. I'd like to learn to wash clothes by myself.
Gu Xuan: I'd like to live with my parents. When I have problems, I can get help from them, and I'll never be lonely or unhappy.
Xu Wenjia: If four or six people live in our room, there could be a lot of problems. I can't fall asleep if someone snores. I'd like to stay at home and sleep well.
