Four Hotels That Will Make Your Life EasierBy John Brandon
For the business traveler who’s all about efficiency: check out these hotels that will get you in and out with minimum trouble.
When you’re pressed for time on a business trip, nothing can infuriate you more than a slow hotel check-in process. On your next trip, try these hotels that offer a speedier check-in process.
Yotel New York
The self-service kiosks (一体机)at this high-tech New York hotel are open 24x7 and work just like the ones you’d see at an airport. There are just five-steps to register and obtain your card key. There’s even a robotic luggage bellboy.
You tap in the number of bags you’re carrying and sizes, then wait for a robot arm to swing down and store your luggage in a locker (say, for a day trip). This also speeds up the check-in process if the first thing you need to do, like me, is head to a series of meetings.
Marriott Detroit Airport
Another option for business travelers in a hurry: Marriott is rolling out its mobile check-in app to 325 hotels this year, including the Marriott Detroit Airport hotel. (I’ve tested the app itself but not for a real visit quite yet.) here is the basic idea: you download the iPhone or Android app. The night before, you can “check-in” virtually. When you arrive, you get an alert that the room is ready and your key, which is already tied to your reservation, is waiting for you at the desk.
Hyatt Regency Minneapolis
I happened to stay at this hotel recently and liked how fast the kiosk check-in works. Like the Yotel, the kiosk asks you to insert your credit card, similar to an airport terminal. The whole process took about three minutes. When I left, I was equally impressed with the fast check-out. An agent meets you in the lobby with an iPad and asks for an email to use for a receipt. The big advantage is you never have to wait in line.
Radisson LaCrosse
The Radisson is trying to make the kiosk process even faster. At a few select hotels like the Radisson Lacrosse in Wisconsin, you use a mobile app to register and then receive a barcode (条形码)by email or text. When you get to the kiosk, you can scan the barcode to get your key without any other steps required. It’s super fast. You can find this new check-in system at the Radisson hotels in Salt Lake City, Seattle, and Phoenix as well.
19.What does the underlined word “infuriate” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean
A.To annoy. B.To remind. C.To amuse. D.To impress:
20.Which two hotels offer a mobile app for customers to check in
A.Yotel New York and Marriott Detroit Airport.
B.Marriott Detroit Airport and Radisson LaCrosse.
C.Marriott Detroit Airport and Hyatt Regency Minneapolis.
D.Hyatt Regency Minneapolis and Radisson LaCrosse.
21.Which hotel will send you a receipt by email
A.Yotel New York. B.Marriott Detroit Airport. ’
C.Radisson LaCrosse. D.Hyatt Regency Minneapolis.

Care for a zoom-in observation of animals with no bars between you and the observed opposed to ordinary zoos Where to have close-up encounters with some of the world’s most rare animals We are revealing for you:
Right whales, Bay of Fundy, Canada
Northern right whales are on the brink of extinction, but survivors arrive in the Bay of Fundy each summer (May through October) to feed east of Grand Manan Island. They are recognized by a broad back and no dorsal fin, which distinguish them from other whales entering the bay.
Planning: Whale-watching tours operate out of Digby Neck peninsula on Nova Scotia and nearby islands, such as Brier Island. St. Andrews, Grand Manan Island, and Deer Island.
Grizzly bears , Alaska
Grizzlies like salmon. In mid-July and again in mid-August, grizzlies make for Alaskan rivers to hook out the fish with their formidable claws. The bears gather in large numbers at rapids and pools, sometimes fighting for the best sites. Brooks Falls in Katmai National Park, and Fish Creek, near Hyder, have viewing platforms.
Planning: Most fishing sites are accessed by chartered light aircraft and a hike. Hyder is off the Stewart-Cassiar Highway.
Monarch butterflies, Sierra Chincua, Mexico
Each fall, millions of North American monarch butterflies migrate thousands of miles to the oyamel fir forests of The Trans-volcanic Mountain Range, in the state of Michoacan. They flock intimately on tree trunks, bushes, and on the ground, fully showing their gregarious nature and occupy Sierra Chincua and four neighboring hills that make up the Monarch Butterfuly Biosphere Reserve.
Planning: Chincua is one of two hills in the reserve open to the public from November through March.
Komodo dragons, Komodo Island, Indonesia
Landing on Komodo, you would feel like stepping back to a time when dinosaurs ruled the Earth, as park maps reported, “Here be dragons!” This mountainous volcanic island is home to the world’s largest living lizard - the Komodo dragon. Weighing 79 to 91 kg, the Komodo dragon has a tail as long as its body. You can hike to a viewpoint at Banugulung and watch as park rangers feed food to the lizards, some of which are more than 10 ft (3 m) long.
Planning: Komodo is reached solely by boat from Bima (on eastern Sumbawa) or Labuan Bajo (on western Flores).
Wildebeest migration, Serengeti, Tanzania
Undoubtedly the world’s most spectacular wildlife sight is the annual wildebeest migration, when 1.4 million wildebeest and 200,000 zebras and gazelles are on the move across the Serengeti plains. The animals are trekking to chase the clean water and fresh grass. Along the way, lions and hyenas stalk them, and crocodiles lie in wait.
Planning: The herds migrate across Tanzania from December through July, and then pass through the Masai Mara in Kenya in August and September.
22.In which place can a variety of types of animals be viewed
A.Alaska . B.Sierra Chincua C.Komodo Island D.Serengeti
23.The underlined word “gregarious is closest in meaning to _________.
A.being able to climb. B.preferring group living
C.migrating in huge numbers D.moderate in temper
24.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage
A.Right whales are distinguished from other whales by unique appearance features.
B.Viewing spots for grizzly bears can be reached through air and on foot.
C.Komodo dragons are similar to dinosaurs in living period.
D.Wildebeest herds travel to pursue favourable food conditions.
25.The target readers of the passage are probably _________.
A.adventurous visitors longing for closer look at animals.
B.mountain hikers who seek unique hiking trails
C.experienced hunters who are aimed at rare animals
D.average zoo visitors looking for animal contact at safe distance

14.细节理解题。根据第三部分“All objects identified for potential open display must be viewed and agreed on an object-to-object basis by the Security Manager of the museum.”(所有被确定为可能开放展示的物品必须由博物馆的安全经理逐个查看并同意),可知根据该指南,公开展示的物品必须首先获得博物馆的批准。故选C项。

16.推理判断题。根据表格左部分,第三个表格中第一段中“Computers were supposed to make our lives simpler, but they’ve gotten so complicated that they are not worth the trouble. If this sounds familiar, we have great news for you. There is finally a computer that’s designed for simplicity and ease of use. It’s the WOW Computer, and it was designed with you in mind.(计算机本应使我们的生活更简单,但它们已经变得如此复杂,以至于不值得为它们费心。如果这听起来很熟悉,我们有好消息要告诉你。终于有了一款设计简单易用的电脑。这是WOW电脑,它是为你而设计的)”以及第三段中“Call now, and you’ll find out why tens of thousands of satisfied seniors are now enjoying their WOW Computers, emailing their grandchildren, and experiencing everything the Internet has to offer.(现在打电话,你会发现为什么成千上万的老年人现在正在享受他们的WOW电脑,给他们的孙子孙女发电子邮件,体验互联网所提供的一切)”可推知,作者最有可能的意思是WOW电脑是专为老年人量身定做的。故选C项。

24.细节理解题。根据Komodo dragons, Komodo Island, Indonesia 中的 “Landing on Komodo, you would feel like stepping back to a time when dinosaurs ruled the Earth, as park maps reported, “Here be dragons!” This mountainous volcanic island is home to the world’s largest living lizard - the Komodo dragon.(降落在科莫多岛,你会感觉回到恐龙统治地球的时代,正如公园地图报道的那样,“这里是龙! 这个多山的火山岛是世界上最大的现存蜥蜴 - 科莫多巨蜥的家园。)”可知,科莫多巨蜥与恐龙生活的时代相似是错误的。故选C项。
