　　英语四级听力50篇：33 Where Do the British Live

　　Nearly everyone in Britain would like to own their own home and, whether they do or not, they are prepared to put time and money into decorating and furnishing it or even making structural alterations to it. Because of the climate and because of the expense involved in going out for the evening, the British spend a lot of time at home and a large part of their social life takes place there.

　　Young people tend to stay with their families longer these days as accommodation is expensive but, when they move away to a job or college, there are various options open to them. They can get lodgings with a landlady. This means that they rent a room in someone’s house and have breakfast with the family. They can also get a bed-sitting room, that is to say one self-contained room in which they can cook, live and sleep. Alternatively, they can share a rented flat or house with a group of young people, perhaps the most popular option of all.

　　Useful Words and Expressions:

　　1. lodging 寄宿处

　　2. bedsit 卧室兼起居室

　　3. bed-sitting 卧室兼起居室的

　　4. self-contained 设备齐全的
