21、Does it seem like hotel costs just go up and up? It’s true that they rise each year, sometimes significantly. When determining which hotel has the best deal, you don’t just want to look at the nightly rate anymore. There are so many other factors to consider to help you save money, both before you book and during your stay. Here are some tips to help you make the best decision.
Go out to eat
Though room service sounds really appealing, prices for food on the menu can be twice as much as you would pay for the same food at a restaurant. Tips are always included in the tab and usually masked as a delivery charge. Most guests don’t know this and add a tip to the bill when the waiter brings their food.
Ask for a corner room
Though this won’t technically save you any money, corner rooms are usually a bit larger than regular rooms, which give you a better deal for your money. Once you check in, ask if one of these rooms is available. This is easier if you show up close to check-in time, but before the flood of guests show up to get their keys. You can also call ahead and request a corner room with your existing reservation.
Bring your own snacks
Anything is better than the rates for items in the mini bar. The prices are horrible and don’t even think about trying to replace it with the same item later.
Avoid the weekend
Hotels in popular destinations regularly raise their rates on Fridays and Saturdays. In some cases, it can be as much as three times more than Sunday through Thursday nights.

22、Many animals recognize their food because they see it.So do humans.When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate,you know that these are things you can eat.You can also use other senses when you choose your food.You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good.You may dislike some types of food because they do not look,smell or taste very nice.Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food.A few animals depend on only one of their senses,while most animals use more than one sense.

23、How to keep screens from ruining your vision
Laboratory studies have shown that prolonged exposure to high-intensity blue light damages retinal (视网膜的) cells in mice. But epidemiological (流行病学的) studies on real people tell a different story.
So,【1】Human eyes are different from rodent (啮齿动物) eyes. We have protective elements, such as macular pigments and the natural blue-blocking ability of the crystalline lens (晶状体).【2】 Just because blue light isn’t harming your retina doesn’t mean your electronic devices are harmless. Because of its wavelength, blue light does disrupt healthy sleep physiology. Mounting evidence suggests that【3】It also robs you of restorative rapid-eye-movement sleep, dulls focus, and diminishes brain activity the next day.
【4】 First, turn off your electronic devices before bed. Outside of the bedroom, when you do look at your screens, lower the brightness. Second, follow the “20-20-20” rule. The American Optometric Association defines this rule as taking a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at something 20 feet in the distance. This will allow your eyes to blink and relax. Third,【5】 This way will reinforce the body’s natural tears and keep the eye’s surface hydrated.
A. why does it damage our human retinal cells?
B. These structures absorb blue light before it reaches the delicate retina.
C. why is there difference between blue light’s effects on rodent eyes and human eyes?
D. screen time before bed increases the time it takes to fall asleep.
E. There are ways to make your screen viewing more comfortable and more conducive to sleep.
F. use lubricating eye drops before extended computer use.
G. we should decrease screen time before bed.
24、 “Where did the Christmas basket sitting on our front porch come from? ” I thought to myself. I’d just returned from the bank, where I’d withdrawn enough cash to get us through the holidays. Life was a struggle, raising two teenagers as a single mom while working two part-time jobs and taking college courses at night. I was extremely tired.
Looking for a card or note, I searched the basket which was filled with all sorts of holiday foodstuffs. However, there was none. Had someone entered my name into a charity? The timing couldn’t have been better. It would support us through a period of difficult time.
At that very moment I felt a bit guilty (内疚). Wasn’t there someone else out there who needed it more? Yes, my kids and I were struggling, but my grandparent relied only on the state pension (国家抚恤金) to get by. At least I could always pick up extra hours at work. And when I finished my degree, things would improve a lot.
My conscience (良心) won the debate. I drove to Grandma and Grandpa’s little two-room house. Grandma opened the door. “Merry Christmas, Grandma!” I said, handing the Christmas basket to her. Grandma was thrilled. “Oh, thank you, Connie! We’ll be able to have such a nice dinner this Sunday. This will really help us until our pension come. But what about you?” “We’ll be fine,” I said. After a short visit I excused myself. “I still have a lot of work to do, so I should head back.”
On the way home, thinking about Grandma’s smile, I knew the basket had gone to the right place. But like Grandma said, what about us? I still worried about how I could afford to make Christmas special for my kids. Then I saw it in front of my house, in the same spot as before — an identical Christmas basket, every bit as lovely as the first.

25、How did Cape Town, South Africa, get into a Day Zero situation—when the city’s taps would go dry because its reservoirs (水库)would become dangerously low on water?
