“Everyonehates dirty places. If you make a mess, don’tleave it for someone else to clean up. Make sure you do your fair share ofdormitory chores, such as taking out the trash and recycling, and cleaning thewashroom,”said Liao.

“大家都不喜欢脏乱差。如果你把寝室搞得乱七八糟,别等着别人来替你收拾。要保证做好宿舍杂务中你份内的事情,比如倒垃圾、回收废品以及打扫洗手间。”廖飞说。

No matter what, conflicts areinevitable when living with others for four years. But a conflict isn’t the end of the world. Aserious talk or even just a joke can fix the problem.

中国人民大学心理学系系主任孙健敏表示,学会向他人妥协是生活中最重要的一课。

“Doesit really matter if someone’s cup was not rinsed out or iftheir computer was left on all night? If it bothers you a lot then bring it up,but if it’sa small thing - just let it go,” said Sun.

“有人没洗杯子,或者电脑整夜开着,这些真的重要?如果这确实困扰到你,那就提出来,如果只是小事一桩,就不要太在意了。”孙健敏说。

“It’s tempting to vent your frustration on others whenthings start to annoy you. But it’sbetter to talk about it with others in a way they can accept. Being obsessedwith insignificant things only creates more problems.”

“当为一些事苦恼时,你往往会选择发泄对他人的不满。但最好还是以一种别人能接受的方式与他们好好谈一谈。过分为小事计较只会徒增烦恼。”
