走进牛津大学丨第52期 牛津的餐饮和住宿

If students do have to live out of the college, they can rent a house or flat in Oxford, usually renting with two to six other students.

如果学生不得不住在学院外面，他们可以在牛津大学租一间房子或公寓，通常是和其他2到6个学生一起合租。

They need to share the rent of their own bedroom, as well as a shared bathroom, living room and kitcken.

他们需要均摊的房租包括自己的卧室，以及公用浴室、客厅和厨房。

The average rent in a shared house is between ￡350 and ￡450 per month, except bills i.e. for water, gas, electronics, phone.

一间合租房每月的平均租金在350-450英镑之间，除去如水费、煤气费、电费和电话费这样的费用，

Moreover, the accommodation is required to rent for 12 months.

而且，这种住所要求要租满12个月，

Living out can be a little more expensive than living in college, but it means they can stay on during the holidays.

但是那也意味着他们可以在假期逗留。

The dining hall in the college usually provides three meals a day, seven days a week, and has a variety of ways of charging for food.

学院餐厅一般一周7天都为学生提供一日三餐，在有些餐厅里学生们直接付费就餐，

In some dining halls, students pay directly for what they eat,

而在别的餐厅里学生们每学期交固定数额的餐饮管理费，

while in others, they pay a fixed charge per term to cover catering overheads, and are then charged solely for the food they eat.

然后再为他们所吃的食物单独付费。

College catering is run on a not-for-profit basis, and college caterers work hard to provide balanced meals to suit a wide variety of tastes and diets.

学院的餐饮是本着非盈利的原则运营的，而且学院的餐饮工作人员努力提供均衡的膳食，照顾学生们的不同口味和饮食习惯。

In addition to the accommodation and food costs that you must budget for,

学生们除了必须要预算住宿和膳食费用外，

other costs should also be budgeted for, which include clothing, entertainment, books，communication (phone bills, broadband etc),

其他费用也应该加人到预算之中，包括服装、娱乐、书籍、交际（电话费、宽带等）、

stationery, special course equipment, medical expenses not covered by the National Health Service, local transport, and other personal requirements.

文具、特殊课程设备、国家医疗服务中没有涉及到的医疗费用、当地交通和其他个人需要。

Furthermore, following costs are also necessary to be budgeted for, such as one-off costs at the start of your course (e.g. bicycle, computer),

另外，开学时的一次性花费（如：自行车、电脑）、

expenses relevant to your circumstances, travelling expenses to and from Oxford, British visa, as well as fluctuation in exchange rates.

个人相关花费、往返牛津的交通费、英国的签证费，以及兑换汇率的浮动等也是必须要考虑的预算。

读一些无用的书，做一些无用的事，花一些无用的时间，都是为了在一切已知之外，保留一个超越自己的机会，人生中一些很了不起的变化，就是来自这种时刻。by 梁文道
