Task: Finding a Flat/Room to Rent for University in the UK or USA

Objective:
To practice reading comprehension and housing-related vocabulary by exploring rental adverts for university accommodation in the UK and USA.

Scenario:
Imagine you are going to study at a university either in the UK or the USA for a year. Your task is to find a flat or room to rent near the university. You will use real estate websites to find a suitable place to live and compare the options available in both countries.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Choose a University City:

In the UK, choose a city with a well-known university (e.g., London, Manchester, Edinburgh).

In the USA, choose a city with a major university (e.g., New York, Boston, Los Angeles).

2. Visit the Websites:

Go to Rightmove or Zoopla (UK) to look for a flat or room to rent in your chosen university city.

Go to Zillow or Apartments.com (USA) to find a flat or room to rent near your chosen university.

3. Find Two Rental Adverts:

Find one rental advert from the UK and one from the USA. These should be either a room in a shared flat or a small apartment near the university.

4. Answer the Following Questions:

Basic Information:

1. What is the type of accommodation (e.g., room in a shared flat, studio apartment)?

2. How much is the monthly rent? (In pounds for the UK and dollars for the USA)

3. How many people would you share the accommodation with, if applicable?

4. What is included in the rent? (e.g., utilities, internet, furniture)

Features and Descriptions: 5. How far is the accommodation from the university? Is it walking distance or will you need public transport? 6. What key features or amenities are highlighted in the advert (e.g., furnished, Wi-Fi, parking, shared kitchen)? 7. List any new housing-related vocabulary you learned from the advert. Try to find at least three new words.

Comparison: 8. How do the prices of student accommodation compare between the UK and USA? 9. What are the differences in how rooms/flats are described in the UK versus the USA (e.g., terminology, features)? 10. Which accommodation do you think offers better value for money? Why?

Cultural Reflection: 11. What are the differences between living in a shared flat in the UK and the USA? 12. Based on the adverts, where do you think you would feel more comfortable living, and why?
