Questions 14 to 17 are based on the following passage.

Good morning. The aim of today's talk is to give the international students some information about accommodation in TAFE International Western Australia. Where will you live in Western Australia? you can choose from hostels, homestay, shared accommodation and rental accommodation.

Hostels are fully-supervised student hostels that offer single or shared rooms， and shared recreation facilities. As a guide，hostels cost around $ 4- $ 6 for breakfast and $ 7- $ 9 for dinner. (15) Homestay—you can live in your own bedroom, in the home of a carefully-selected Australian family. This option gives you the chance to really experience the Australian way of life，and many students form lifelong friendships with their host families! The cost is around $ 160 per week including all meals. To be more independent, you can choose shared accommodation. You can share an apartment with one or more adults. You’ll have your own bedroom, but share household facilities and responsibilities (like cleaning and laundry). Each person provides their own blankets and linen, and buys their own food. (16) Shared accommodation costs around $ 70- $ 100 per week rent only. Food and utilities (such as electricity，gas and telephone) are extra. Another choice is rental accommodation. (17) For complete independence，you can rent an apartment or house either furnished or unfurnished by signing a legal contract for a fixed period. You will be responsible for your own cooking， cleaning, food and other necessities. Rental accommodation costs from $ 85 per week. Food and utilities are extra.

TAFE International staff can book your homestay or hostel accommodation free of charge. You can stay there for weeks, months as long as you like. Or, if you prefer， you can then choose another hostel, shared or rental accommodation. I remind you, your international student coordinator can help you to investigate rental options.
