Question

閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語(yǔ)短文。

The summer holiday had come to an end before I knew it. Like any other kids, I came to a new school with a suitcase. There were six of us living in a small room about fifteen square meters. Luckily, everything went on well in the first three weeks.

A week ago, one of my roommates brought in a very large suitcase and placed it under her bed, but days later, she found something wrong with her suitcase. As we live on the ground floor, her case soon got wet. She took it out and after drying it up, she just put it on her desk because she had no other choices. I happened to be opposite her desk and her suitcase was so large that it not only occupied the whole of her desk but half of mine as well. I was very much annoyed, so I angrily pushed it forward without first talking to her about it. I pushed a bit too hard and the case fell off her desk, messing up everything it contained. On seeing this, she flew into a temper and angrily shouted at me. The quarrel started and lasted about two hours.

When I calmed down days later, I thought over the quarrel and began to see something. I should have talked to her about it first and then worked with her to find a solution to the problem. Living in a room with limited space, we should learn to get on well with one another.

Answer 1

One possible version

The writer’s roommate put her suitcase on her desk but it occupied part of the writer’s desk, which annoyed the writer and triggered a quarrel. Calming down, the writer realized the importance of getting along well with roommates.

Children, like all herd animals, prefer to be with their own kind. I’m no exception. I like boarding school because not only can I learn to be independent by arranging my study and campus life on my own, but I will also become mentally mature more quickly by getting along with my roommates and peers.

As we know, different kids have different characters and different living habits, so conflicts under the same roof are inevitable. Clashes occur when they do not agree on whether or not loud music is okay or when each roommate is expected to go to sleep and get up and so on.

One day, my roommate Lisa and Andrea said to me, “You know, Mary, the only reason Sarah starts on the basketball team is that the coach likes her.” On hearing this, Sarah’s heart sank. She did not attack them back. Instead, she told them the truth directly and that they had hurt her. Lisa felt ashamed for spreading rumor and Andrea was speechless. It was Sarah’s sensible and rational conduct that prevented her from being harmed, which might otherwise turn into a dorm conflict. They both apologized to Sarah and they become friends again. From the story, I firmly believe that only with wisdom, tolerance and a good sense, will we effectively avoid conflicts with peers and thus create a harmonious interpersonal relationship on campus.
