While sharing apartments saves money and is
sociable2, finding suitable people can be difficult. And the minute a good roommate gets a new job or leaves Shanghai, the hunt for a
replacement3 begins all over again. The survey showed that 14 percent of these young
tenants4 share apartments with strangers they have contacted online.
虽然合租比较省钱又益于交际，但找到合适的人是很困难的。一旦室友找了新工作或离开上海，就又得重新找合适的室友。根据调查显示，14%的年轻租户与网上找到的陌生人合租房子。
And another 9 percent live in
subdivided5 accommodation where flimsy walls have been
erected6 to create extra rooms. This style of accommodation is cheap and that was the main attraction for Wu, a graduate of the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology. With no experience at renting and not wanting to pay real estate agency fees, after
scouring7 the Internet he found he could only afford a subdivided unit.
此外，有9%的人住在隔断间。这指的就是用隔断墙来划分房子，得以创造出更多房间。这种合租方式比较便宜，正是这一点吸引了上海理工大学的毕业生吴同学。由于租赁经验不足，也不想付租房中介费，在上网搜寻之后，他发现他只能负担得起一个隔断间。
Although these places are chancy and illegal the rent they charge is all I can afford, he said.
他说：“虽然这些地方有一定风险也不合法，但是只有他们收取的房租是我能付得起的。”
This survey revealed that none of the respondents lived in apartments owned by family or friends - some respondents suggested this sort of arrangement could easily lead to conflicts.
这项调查的结果还显示，没有受访者住在家人或朋友的房子里。一些受访者表示，原因在于这种住宿关系很容易导致冲突。
Twelve percent of those surveyed rented
specially8 designed share apartments through websites. Just six respondents out of 346 rented government-backed accommodation and only 5.2 percent were living in accommodation provided by their employers.
12%的受访者通过上网找合租的房子，尤其是已经设计好的。346名受访者中仅有六人租住在政府提供的公寓。只有5.2%的人住在由雇主提供的宿舍。
