【题目】Global Hotel Study: When to Book & How to Save
While vacation rentals are a great option for any trip, 56% of Americans prefer to stay in a hotel. Meanwhile, Americans are also looking for a stay that’s budget-friendly. Knowing that your day-to-day costs can be the biggest part of your travel budget, we’ve rounded up several tips on how to get the best price on your hotel.
Unlike with flights, those who wait until the last minute to book can often score a great deal on a hotel room. We found that booking your hotel 1-3 days in advance of your stay can save you between $15-20 per night when you’re staying somewhere in the US. For international trips, booking as little as 6 days ahead for a shorter stay can help you save around $6/night. With these points in mind, here’s our best advice on when to book your hotel and how to save.
When to Book | Domestic | International |
Cheapest Day to Book | Friday/ Saturday | Friday/Saturday |
Most Expensive Day to Book | Tuesday | Monday/Wednesday |
Cheapest Check-In Days | Sunday | Sunday or Tuesday |
Most Expensive Check-In Days | Friday | Saturday |

【题目】 If you're one of the millions of those who use escalators each year, you are probably deeply familiar with the vertical grooves（竖凹槽）that cover each stair. Few of us have stopped to consider why they exist, though. In fact, it's one of the everyday things we take for granted.
But it is a little complicating when you think about it. Sure, the deep, grey lines make an escalator's metal stairs more appealing to the eye. But regular stairs don't have grooves like these; why do escalators need them? Is it because of the movement?
It turns out those grooves serve a more functional purpose. And, yes, it does have to do with the movement, as well as with general cleanliness! Anyone who has ridden an escalator knows that the steps everlastingly circulate from the top to the bottom. You've surely noticed the ridged yellow lip at the top of the escalator. But here's what you may not have noticed: As an escalator's steps flatten, this ridge—also called the comb plate—sweeps away any trash or litter that might have fallen on the stairs. Those grooves lock the step and comb plate together, which makes it harder for any dangerous materials to slide underneath the lip. This prevents foreign objects from getting stuck in that gap, potentially causing the escalator to stop, or worse, break down completely.
That's not the only reason why the grooves were created, though. They are also a good place for water to pool together, protecting you from a bad fall on the slick surface.
So the next time you step on an escalator, take a moment to appreciate those metal grooves. They exist to make sure you get to your office meeting on time.
【1】What are the first two paragraphs trying to say?
A.Millions of people use escalators every year.
B.Few people think much about the grooves.
C.Escalators are complicated machines.
D.Grooves make the stairs look better.
【2】The ridge is mainly designed to____
A.clean off dangerous objects.
B. keep the stairs in movement.
C.flatten the steps.
D.lock the steps.
【3】What does the underlined word "slick” mean in Paragraph 4?
A.Smooth.B.Sticky.
C.Steep.D.Slippery.
【4】What's the passage mainly about?
A.The importance of escalators.
B.The reasons for grooves on stairs.
C.The look of grooves in escalators.
D.The safe ways of riding escalators.
