3 Complete gaps 1–4 in the article with four of paragraphs A–E. There is one extra paragraph.

A And at university, the seven-day week becomes strangely inverted. The weekend starts on Monday, and at the real weekend half the hall mysteriously disappears and nobody goes out because it's too expensive. At 5.30 on a cold, dark Sunday afternoon in November, a thought occurs to you. Wouldn't it be nice to be at home? To eat a proper meal and have a parent tell you to go to bed, because, really, you are quite run-down?

B Of course in the second year these minor inconveniences are easily ignored. Who cares about squalor and a diet of cereal when there is so much else going on? But, by the third year, going out every night of the week is no longer so alluring, and the pressure of work means that more time is spent at home. You realise it's quite nice to eat a good meal on a regular basis and that it isn't that difficult to keep a place clean.

C It can also prove difficult to understand the concept of taking responsibility for your own education. After a couple of weeks of dutiful lecture attendance, it dawns on you that you don't have to go, and what's more, that nobody will notice if you don't go. It's only much later on that you realise you really should have gone ... but then it's too late.

D Even if you've had a gap year, this is a new kind of autonomy. It's somehow more reckless and infinitely more communal. For some, moving into halls will mean an amazing regression in maturity – for example, setting off a fire alarm at four in the morning never seemed so funny.

E Ah ... a place of my own – every student's dream. Somewhere I can be with people I like, where I can eat food that I want, when I want. A place I can decorate to my taste, where I can watch what I want on TV and have impromptu parties when the mood takes me. A place where fire alarms won't wake me at 5 a.m. and the washing machine will clean my clothes.
