    Reading Comprehension

    　　Q　　My husband and I would like to spend five or six days in the Maldives. Could you suggest some low-priced hotels? We'll be there in November.

    　　Jan Davies, email.

    　　A　　Prices in the Maldives are high. The cheaper hotels (and there aren't many) mightn't be much to look at, with unpleasant rooms, iron roofs, old buildings, poor and rough vegetation and basic facilities, but they get their atmosphere from cheerful customers and an untidy, free island feel.

    　　Angaga (South Ari Atoll, phone 0011 960 450510), Asdu Sun Is-land (North Male Atoll, email info@asdu. com.mv) are both a bit like this.

    　　You'll be there in the low season (May to November), when it's still warm, but there's a greater likelihood of rain, so you should be able to get a double (standard) room with full board (three meals a day) fo $100 a night.

    　　However, pricing structures for the hotels are enormously complex for standard, superior and luxurious rooms.

    　　Q　　My husband and I are from Australia. We are planning a four-week trip to London, Dublin and Paris in October and we are shocked by the cost of hotels. We have searched the Internet and hotel books given to us by tourist authorities but we can't find anything cheaper than $150 a night.

    　　Joan Maloney, email.

    　　A　　For Australians travelling Europe, especially its capital cities, is expensive. You may have to increase your budget (预算). However, if you can't afford these costs, then you should consider staying in hotels where the cheapest twin rooms with shared hathroom cost about $20 a person in Dublin and Paris and $35 in London. The minimum you would pay for a double room in a central area is $50 a person in Dublin and Paris and $70 in London. These prices are for shared bathroom facilities, though you will get a wonderfully unhealthy cooked breakfast thrown in.

    　　Not all hotels are equal, of course, and it's a good idea to consult a guidebook with a good reputation.

    [　　]

    A．attracts untidy people

    [　　]

    A．They could live in hotel rooms of lower standard.

    B．They should put up with the wonderfully unhealthy cooked break fast

    C．They should buy a rcliable guidebook instend of increasing the budget
