M: Hi. I have a reservation for tonight. My name is Charles Nelson.
W: Okay. Mr. Nelson. That’s a room for five under your name.
M: No. No. Hold on. There must be some mistake.
W: Okay. Let’s check this again. Okay, Mr. Charles C. Nelson for tonight...
M: Ah. There’s the problem. My name is Charles Nelson, not Charles C. Nelson.[23]You must have two guests under the name.
W: Okay. Let me check this again. Oh. Okay. Here we are. Charles Nelson. A room for one for the 19th...
M: Wait, wait! It was for tonight. Not tomorrow night.
W: Hum. Hum. I don’t think we have any rooms for tonight.[24]There’s a convention going on in town, and uh, let’s see. Yeah, no rooms. Well. We do have some rooms under renovation with just a roll-away bed. None of the normal stuff like a TV or working shower or toilet.
M: Ah madam. Come on. There must be something else.
W: Well. Let me check my computer here. Ah! There has been a cancellation for this evening. A honeymoon suite is now available.
M: Great. I’ll take it.
W: But I’ll have to charge you two hundred fifty dollars for the night.
M: Ah. Madam. I should get a discount for the inconvenience.
W: Well. The best I can give you is a ten percent discount plus a ticket for a free continental breakfast.
23. What was the first problem with the man’s reservation?
24. Why was it hard to get a room that day?
25. What did the man get finally?

选项 A、A honeymoon suite for $250 for the night and free Chinese breakfast.
B、A honeymoon suite for $225 for the night and free western breakfast.
C、A honeymoon suite for $200 for the night and free Chinese breakfast.
D、A honeymoon suite for $200 for the night and free western breakfast.

答案 B

解析 女士查到有人取消订房,那是一个蜜月套房,每晚需250美元。男士表示要住这个套房,但要求打折。女士说:“我最多给你打9折,另外再免费送一张欧洲大陆式早餐用餐券”。可见男士最后得到的是以225美元住一晚蜜月套房,并获得免费西式早餐。故B正确。
