At the beginning of the new school year, freshmen from Ningbo Institute of Technology, Zhejiang University received a letter from the school, suggesting that parents give their children 600 yuan living expenses every month. However, freshmen do not agree with this practice. Ma, an anesthesiologist at Hubei University of Medicine, said: "I know the school wants to encourage rational consumption. But 600 yuan is not enough. " 2 1 year-old, his monthly expenditure is between 1500-2000 yuan, of which 1000 yuan is spent on food. He said, "If my parents only give 600 yuan a month, I may starve to death." ? Ying Zhongyuan, secretary of the Youth League Committee of Ningbo Institute of Technology, said that students' basic expenses include food, communication, utilities and daily necessities. Ying Zhongyuan said: "This standard is based on the specific situation of our school, in which meals account for most of the expenses. The average cost of three meals a day is 15 yuan, so the monthly meal fee is 450 yuan. Considering that the price on campus is very cheap, the remaining 150 yuan should be enough to pay for other expenses. "
