听力原文: Welcome, everyone, to this workshop on student housing. I'll go through the information about types of housing available for the term and the procedure for application. Then, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me.
There are two main types of housing for you to choose from: student dorms and the international houses. As for now, there is some space available in each type, but they are filling up fast. You should get your application in as soon as possible. Let me explain some of the main features of each type of housing.
The student dorms are for any student. We have men's dorms and women's dorms. Most of the rooms have two beds, two closets, and two desks. There are no cooking facilities in the dorms, but you can buy a meal ticket for the cafeteria.
The international houses are a group of apartments for both foreign students and resident students. They are organized into language and culture themes, and some of them have rules about speaking only a certain language during meal times. It's been a good way for students to learn other cultures and languages. I think that the Spanish house is full, but there are rooms available in all the other houses.

A. New students.
B. Foreign students.
C. Resident students.
D. Faculty.
