M: Hi. I have a reservation for tonight, and I just want to check in.
W: Sure. What’s your name?
M: Uh. Jonathon Cook.
W: Okay. Can I have your passport please?
M: Sure. Here you are.
W: Let me check here… Um, Mr. Cook, here’s your key. You’re in Room 360. Just walk down this hall and you’ll see the elevators on your right.
M: Oh, thank you. By the way, what time is the restaurant open for breakfast?
W: It serves breakfast from 6:30 a.m.-10:00 a.m.
M: That early? I thought it would be until 11:00 a.m. Then where’s the exercise room? I’d like to, you know, do some exercises before going to bed tonight.
W: It’s on the second floor, and it’s open till 10:00 p.m. tonight, but I’m sorry that the treadmill isn’t working.
M: It’s okay. Normally I will just use the chest press. And do you have wireless Internet in the rooms?
W: Yeah, of course we have. But you need to pay an extra $7.95 a night.
M: I thought something like that would be free.
W: No, I’m sorry sir. We charge extra money for the wireless Internet in the rooms. But you can get free wireless access in the lobby. You see, over there are some desks and chairs. Normally people just get free access to the Internet there.
M: Um... A little is better than none. And every room has a refrigerator, right?
W: Well, we can have one put in your room for an additional $10 a night.
M: Ahhhh. I thought something like that would be included in the price of the room.
W: Sorry, sir.
M: Well, you know, it... it kind of irks me when hotels nickel-and-dime their customers like this. I mean many hotels nowadays provide these amenities for free. These are the things supposed to be there for free.
W: Sorry, sir. It’s just the way it is at our hotel. And this information is always put on the reservation page of the hotel. You may have read it before.
M: Well... how about the bed? Is that extra too?
W: Of course not! Ah, sir. Just let you know in advance. Please remember to check out before 12:00 a.m., or you may need to pay an additional $20.
M: Oh. I’ve had it. I’ll just try the hotel across the street. I’m sure they’ll give me better service.
W: Um... Okay... but if you are canceling your reservation here, so we’ll have to charge you a cancellation fee of 50% of the cost of the room.
M: What? Ahhhh, forget it. I can’t win either way. What’s my room again?
W:360.

答案 B

解析 ①当男士得知网络和房间冰箱都要额外收费时,他说到酒店如此斤斤计较让他觉得有点烦;并且当工作人员告诉他如果在第二天中午12点以后才退房的话会另外加收费用的时候,男士决定更换酒店。因为他认为其他酒店可以提供更好的服务。因此,B项“这间酒店的服务不如很多其他酒店服务好”为正确答案。②本题稍有干扰是D项,但只要理解了no better than“实际上和……一样”的意思,就不难排除了。
