Living on One's
Own
For Chinese students this may mean leaving home to attend
college. Elsewhere, however, this may not provide enough independence
to satisfy student desires for freedom from parents or other
types of control. After all, colleges and dormitories have
many rules and restrictions, such as limitations on when and
where one can study. Noise and lack of privacy are additional
complaints of dormitory residents everywhere. American students,
in particular, are often eager to move off campus as soon
as they can. This may occur as early as the sophomore year
at most American colleges.
对于中国学生而言,独立生活可能是指离开家去上大学,然而在其它国家这还说不上是独立。因为其它国家的学生并不满足于脱离父母或摆脱其他形式的约束,毕竟学校和学生宿舍有不少规章制度,比如,在什么时候学习,在哪学习。学生常常抱怨学校宿舍不安静,而且没有隐私可言。尤其是美国的学生,只要可能便马上搬出校园,在大多数的美国校园中,这种情况在大二时便早早出现。
