Knowing what to do at checkout and properly preparing for it can turn a potentially
heated situation into a quick thank you and goodbye. Below we made a list of five things you
should remember at hotel checkout.
Don’t be late to check
Hotels may add an extremely high price for being just a half hour late. If you know you
won’t make the cutoff time, it never hurts to call ahead and try to negotiate away a potential
charge.
Don’t forget to double check the room and safe
Make sure you don’t leave things behind. If you have an early flight or checkout time,
pack up as much as you can the night before so that last-minute rush isn’t too annoying. Also,
be sure to take out anything in the room safe.
Don’t forget to tip the housekeepers
It’s always polite to leave some money for the people keeping your room clean.
Don’t ignore the detailed bill
You may be in a rush, but give the detailed bill a careful look to see if the hotel charge is
different from the rate you initially booked.
Don’t get angry
Shooting at the assistant manager standing behind the front desk probably won’t help.
When dealing with an unexpected item on the bill, think about how difficult it can be to
deal with annoyed customers. Keep calm and things may be solved better and sooner.
21. The hotel will charge you more money if you .
A. check before cutoff time
B. do not call the hotel ahead
C. are late in checking out
D. negotiate with the clerks
22. Which of the following does the author suggest doing?
A. Leaving something behind.
B. Being sure to keep the room clean.
C. Doing the pack-up as early as possible.
D. Tipping the housekeepers to show respect.[来源:学科网 ZXXK]
23. What is the purpose of the last paragraph of the passage?
A. To suggest a way to solve problems properly
B. To provide more information about the hotel.
C. To show the uneasiness of assistant managers
D. To protect customers from unnecessary dangers.

With Halloween just around the corner, today we will explore the world of ghosts in this
program! The Merriam-Webster online dictionary says the word “ghost” goes back a
thousand years to the “earliest recorded evidence of the language.” The first meaning of
“ghost” was “the seat of life or intelligence.” And it still has that meaning in some
expressions.
However, today, the word “ghost” usually means the soul of a dead person. This
meaning is based on the idea that a person’s spirit and body are separate. The spirit can
continue existing long after the body has died.
During Halloween, kids dressed as ghosts are common sights. The costume is very
simple: just throw on a white cloth that covers you from head to foot. But do not expect to
win any costume competitions! You would not have a ghost of a chance. People use this
expression to mean that something is very unlikely to happen.
The sight might even make you turn pale as a ghost. This is used when people lose color
in their face. Sometimes this happens when a person is scared. But a bad cold or flu can also
turn you as pale as a ghost.
“Ghost” can also be a verb. In the 1880s the term ghost meant a person who works in
secret for another person. Ghostwriters produce speeches for politicians. They also produce
books for authors who want to tell their life stories but are not professional writers.
And sometimes ghostwriters are involved in a series of books, like the children’s stories
based on the teenage detective Nancy Drew. The series began in 1930. The author given
credit was Carolyn Keene. But she was not even real! Ghostwriters did all the work.
Another expre ssion using “ghost” as a verb is simply to ghost. This does not mean to
die. It means to leave a place or event without saying “goodbye” to anyone. You can ghost
from your job. You can ghost from a party. You can even ghost from a relationship. This is
when you stop communicating with someone because you are simply no longer interested in
them.
But I will not ghost from Words and Their Stories.
25.The basic meaning of the word “ghost” nowadays is ___________.
A.the secret of another person
B.the color of one’s face
C.the spirit of a dead person
D.the origin of intelligence
26.If someone says “you don’t have a ghost of chance to win the match”, he
means__________.
A.without doubt you won’t lose the match
B.the match is unlikely to happen
C.it’s impossible for you to win the match
D.you are too scared to win the match
27.What can be inferred about the word “ghost” according to the passage?
A.Kids dressed in a white cloth like ghostscan win a costume competition.
B.A bad cold can turn people as pale as a ghost because they fear illness.
C.It was Carolyn Keene who ghostwrote the children’s stories.
D.A person devoted to his job is unlikely to ghost from his job.
