Im away from home, so I have many things to adjust to, such as being on my own and meeting many different types of people. There are a lot of things that I like about college that I would like to describe for you. First of all, living at college gives me a sense of responsibility and of being on my own. My parents arent around to say, No, youre not going out tonight, or Did you finish your homework? Everything I do has to be my decision, and that makes me responsible for my own life. During the second week I was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an account. And when I got to the bank, I had to decide whether to have a checking or savings account and whether or not to get a credit card. Decisions! Decisions! Friendly people is another thing I like about college. On the first day I came to Marymount University here in Virginia from New York, I was a bit confused about where I was going. My mother and I drove in. We did not know the building we were supposed to go to, but the guard was very nice. With a smile, he told us what building we were looking for and where we could park our car. My room was on the first floor of New Gerard, and I knew I had to go through some glass doors, but my mother and I didnt know which ones. Some students saw me and asked, Are you a new student? When they found out I was looking for New Gerard, one said, Oh, just follow us; thats where were going. Even now I feel comfortable in the dorm because there are friendly people around to talk with. I do like a lot of things about college, but that doesnt mean I dont think about things at home. Although I like college, I can still get homesick. New York is a very good place, too! And sometimes I miss it! 76. The text is perhaps written by _. A. a new student B. a new teacher C. a foreign reporter D. a foreign visitor 77. What does gives me a sense of responsibility in the first sentence of Paragraph 2 mean? It means it makes me feel _. A. responsible for my parents. B. responsible for my teacher. C. responsible for the school. D.res
