Hotel rooms come in a variety of styles and price ranges. Despite differences m decoration and price, one thing most hotels have in common is a set of rules. Failure to obey these rules can result in fees or fines to cover hotel room damages, removal from the hotel or possibly even arrest.
Smoking
Some hotels are completely non-smoking. Some hotels designate smoking and non-smoking rooms. If you smoke in a non-smoking room, you will likely be fined hundreds of dollars and possibly asked to leave.
Number of Guests
Most regular hotel rooms are designed for two adults. If you have more than two people staying in the room, the hotel will likely charge an additional fee for each extra guest, though some hotels let children stay free. Do not put more than four adults in the room unless the hotels policy permits that many people. Or you might be fined or removed from the hotel
Hotel Reservations Requirements
Most hotels require a major credit card to reserve the room. You can pay cash at the end of your stay, but do not be surprised if there is a temporary charge on your card for a few days after your stay. Most hotels authorize a security deposit on your card to cover any possible damages to the room. Once the hotel confirms that the room is undamaged and that you do not break any hotel policies, your security deposit will be refunded.
Breaking the Law
You cannot break the law in your hotel room, just as you cannot break the law in your own home or in public. Do not do drugs or commit any other criminal act in the hotel room. If you do, you will likely be arrested.
Noise
Most hotels have a noise policy you must obey. If you are being too loud you will usually get a warning. If the noise continues and more complaints are issued, you will likely be kicked out of the hotel, regardless of what time it is.
1.What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To advertise the hotel rooms B. To show some rules of hotel rooms
C. To warn the customers D. To offer some tips of living in hotel rooms
2.You will NOT be asked to leave the hotel, if you .
A. make too much noise continually B. smoke without permission
C. have one extra guest to stay D. break the law
3.Why is there a temporary charge on your card for a few days after your stay?
A. Because the hotels may use the money to pay for possible damages caused by you.
B. Because the hotels want to confirm whether you have money.
C. Because the hotels need a major credit card to pay for the rent.
D. Because the hotels need to authorize a security deposit.

A healthy amount of sunshine may be the secret to staying young. British scientists have discovered.
Vitamin D is produced naturally by the skin in response to (对…的反应) sunlight and may help to slow the ageing process and protect against heart disease, according to the study.
Researchers from King's College London studied 2,160 women aged between 18 and 79, looking at their telomeres-a biological marker of ageing found in DNA. As people get older, their telomeres get shorter and they become more susceptible (易受伤害的) to certain illnesses.
But the study found women with high levels of vitamin D had comparatively longer telomeres-a sign of being biologically younger and healthier.
The study suggests vitamin D may help to slow down the ageing process of DNA, and therefore the ageing process as a whole.
Lead researcher Dr Brent Richards said, "These results are exciting because they show for the first time that people who have higher levels of vitamin D may age more slowly than people with lower levels of vitamin D." This could help to explain how vitamin D has a protective effect on many ageing related diseases, such as heart disease and cancer."
Professor Tim Spector, a co-author of the report, added, " Although it might sound absurd(荒唐的), it's possible that the same sunshine which may increase our risk of skin cancer may also have a healthy effect on the general ageing process.
Vitamin D made by the action of sunlight on the skin accounts for 90 percent of the body's supply, but lower levels can also be got through food such as fish, eggs and breakfast cereals(粥).
Other studies have suggested the vitamin plays a key role in protecting against cancer and heart disease.
1.A certain amount of sunshine helps people stay young because _________.
A. people feel happy and energetic in the sun
B. vitamin D may help to slow the ageing process
C. sunshine protects people against heart disease
D. vitamin D makes one's skin look young and healthy
2.From Brent Richards, we know that ________.
A. sunlight causes skin cancer to people with high level of vitamin D
B. the study generally has a healthy effect on the general ageing process
C. the higher levels of vitamin D people have, the more slowly people may age
D. vitamin D can only be got from fish, eggs and breakfast cereals
3.What can we infer from the passage?
A. Sunlight does more good than harm to our health.
B. Telomeres are important as they are signs of ageing of the DNA.
C. Sunlight can be dangerous as it causes skin cancer.
D. Vitamin D can also be gained from food.
4.What is the best title of the passage?
A. Secret of Staying Young
B. Sunlight and Vitamin D
C. Vitamin D Helps Slow Ageing

We are often unable to pay close attention to what we hear. Just like when we try to grab a sponge(海绵) that is full of water, some water will run out of it. But sometimes we try to remember everything a speaker says and try to take in a speaker’s every word as if every word was equally important. We try to remember all the names, all the dates, and all the places. In the process we often miss the speaker’s main point.
Erik Waldman works at a design company. Knowing he had never been good at budgeting his money, he was determined to begin thinking about his economic future. When his employer circulated an e-mail announcing a financial planning workshop(研讨会), Erik signed up right away.
The first session was about retirement planning. Simone Fisher, the lecturer, explained that 7 of 10 Americans between the ages of 22 and 35 do not have a regular savings plan. Erik wrote down every number Simone mentioned.
"If you want to have a retirement income equal to 75 percent of your current salary," Simone continued, "you will need to save at least of 6 percent of your present earnings, taking into account future inflation rates(通货膨胀率). In the meantime, I want to stress that the most important thing is to start saving now."
Erik recorded all the statistics Simone used. When she opened the floor(自由发言) for question, Erik raised his hand and said, "I have two question. When is the best time to start saving for retirement? And how can I figure out my savings target if I don’t know what inflation rates will be in the future?"
This is a typical example of losing the speaker’s point by concentrating on details. Erik had fixed his mind on remembering all the statistics in Simone’s presentation, but he blocked out the man message. Rather than trying to remember everything, we should concentrate on main ideas and evidence.
1.What does the author mean by saying "Just like when we ... run out of it."?
A. We tend to reject what others say.
B. We always try to remember all details.
C. It is difficult for us to remember all things.
D. We often fail to focus on what we are listening to.
2.During the workshop, Erik .
A. got Simone Fisher 's main idea
B. focused on the lecture's details
C. showed little interest in the lecture
D. didn't agree with what Simone had said
3.When hearing Erik's questions, Simone would most probably think .
A. they are very good questions
B. Erik was an excellent listener
C. it was hard to answer the questions
D. his questions were meaningless
4.The passage is written to help those who want to be .
A. a good listener B. a financial planner
C. an excellent lecturer D. a successful employee
