At the hotel

It's a well known fact that hotels nowadays play a big role. Every year more and more new hotels are opened. Sometimes it is even difficult to decide which to choose while traveling. There are luxury hotels, which seem to be expensive, b & b hotels, where you will get only breakfasts and a place to sleep, youth hostels, where you meant to serve everything yourself and many other places to stay in. Some people enjoy staying in a hotel. A lot of hotels have separate lounging, sleeping and dressing areas, bath, shower, colour TV, in-room films, Internet access, direct-dial telephone and complimentary breakfast.

Sure, on the one hand there are a lot of advantages in it. To begin with, it's convenient. You have a chance to make a telephone call and reserve any room you want in a good time. Besides, you don't need to serve yourself, everything will be done by the hotel staff, I find it wonderful. The hotel can be located in the center of the city or near the picturesque place.

But on the other hand there are still some disadvantages in staying in a hotel. First of all, the service can be poor and slowly, for this reason you can be late for a business meeting or a friends' party, I find it extremely disappointing. Second, the food can be too salty, overcooked and etc... It can be a serious problem for people with weak stomach. Third, the view from the window can be not so romantic, it can also disappoint some people, who care about the beauty around them.

Personally I'm for staying in a hotel in spite of all disadvantages. So before booking a hotel, you'd better learn some facts about it in the net or from your friends for sure. Last summer I stayed in a hotel in Turkey, everything was up to date, wonderful service, tasty food and friendly staff.

In general I am only for staying in a hotel, this will save your money, time and will be convenient.

Twenty years ago not many people travelled abroad for their holidays. The majority of people stayed to have holidays in their country. Today the situation is different and the world seems much smaller.

It is possible to book a holiday to a seaside resort on the other side of the world. Staying at home, you can book it through the Internet or by phone. The plane takes you straight there and within some hours of leaving your country, you can be on a tropical beach, breathing a super clean air and swimming in crystal warm water of tropical sea.

We can travel by car, by train or plane, if we have got a long distance tour. Some young people prefer walking or hitch-hike travelling, when you travel, paying nearly nothing. You get new friends, lots of fun and have no idea where you will be tomorrow. If you like mountains, you could climb any mountains around the globe and there is only one obstacle. It is money. If you like travelling, you have got to have some money, because it is not a cheap hobby indeed. The economy of some countries is mainly based on tourism industry. Modern tourism has become a highly developed industry, because any human being is curious, we like leisure, visit other places. That is why tourism is so popular.

Nowadays tourism has become a highly developed business. There are trains, cars and air jet liners, buses, ships that provide us with comfortable and secure travelling.

If we travel for pleasure, by all means one would like to enjoy picturesque places they are passing through, one would like seeing the places of interest, enjoying the sightseeing of the cities, towns and countries.

Nowadays people travel not only for pleasure but also on business. People have to go to other countries for taking part in different negotiations, for signing some very important documents, for participating in different exhibitions. Travelling on business helps people to get more information about achievements of other companies, which will help making own business more successful.

There are a lot of means of travelling: travelling by ship, by plane, by car, walking. It depends on a person to decide which means of travelling one would prefer.

AT THE DOCTOR’S
Doctor: Good morning, Mr. Baker. What’s the trouble? You certainly don’t look as if there is anything wrong with you.
James: I haven’t been feeling very well for some time. I’ve lost my appetite and I don’t sleep very well. I have a bad cough and a pain in my chest, sometimes, when I breathe.
Doctor: I see. Very well. You’d better have an examination. Let me see your tongue… Yes, your stomach is a little out of order… Now your pulse… Yes, that’s all right. Now just unbutton your coat and shirt and I’ll listen to your heart and chest. Say “Ninety-nine”.

Doctor: H’m. You ought to cut that down for a time. Let me see your throat. Say “Ah!”
James: Ah! Ah!
Doctor: All right, that will do. You can put your coat on again now. Have you been losing weight?
James: No, I don’t lose or gain, at least never more than a pound or so one way or another.
Doctor: Well, there’s nothing serious the matter with you, but you’ve been working too hard and you need a real rest. I’ll give you a bottle of medicine that will help. Take a tablespoonful in water three times a day after meals. Eat plenty of plain good food, have no cigarettes and drink plenty of milk, at least a pint a day, and not much coffee; get plenty of fresh air and plenty of sleep, but, above all, don’t try to do too much. A real change of air and surroundings would be very helpful if you could manage it.
J ames: As a matter of fact, I’ve been invited to go and stay with some friends in their cottage in Cornwall.
Doctor: That’s just the thing. But remember, take it easy. Not too much swimming or tennis, at least for a week or two, but a good walk by the sea every day would do you a world of good. I’ll see you again when you come back, just to make sure you’re all right. Don’t worry about yourself. If that holiday in Cornwall doesn’t work wonders I’ll be very much surprised. Another month and you’ll be quite fit. Good luck.

THE DOCTOR'S ADVICE

Once an old gentleman went to see a doctor. The doctor examined him and said: "Medicine won't help you. You must have a complete rest. Go to a quiet country place for a month, go to bed early, drink milk, walk a lot, and smoke just one cigar a day."

"Thank you very much," said the old gentleman, "I shall do everything you say."

A month later the gentleman came to the doctor again. "How do you do!" said the doctor, "I am very glad to see you. You look much younger."

"Oh, doctor," said the gentleman, "I feel quite well now. I had a good rest. I went to bed early, I drank a lot of milk, I walked a lot. Your advice certainly helped me. But you told me to smoke one cigar a day, and that one cigar a day almost killed me at first. It's no joke to start smoking at my age."

Exercise 2. Read and translate text.

At the hotel

It's a well known fact that hotels nowadays play a big role. Every year more and more new hotels are opened. Sometimes it is even difficult to decide which to choose while traveling. There are luxury hotels, which seem to be expensive, b & b hotels, where you will get only breakfasts and a place to sleep, youth hostels, where you meant to serve everything yourself and many other places to stay in. Some people enjoy staying in a hotel. A lot of hotels have separate lounging, sleeping and dressing areas, bath, shower, colour TV, in-room films, Internet access, direct-dial telephone and complimentary breakfast.

Sure, on the one hand there are a lot of advantages in it. To begin with, it's convenient. You have a chance to make a telephone call and reserve any room you want in a good time. Besides, you don't need to serve yourself, everything will be done by the hotel staff, I find it wonderful. The hotel can be located in the center of the city or near the picturesque place.

But on the other hand there are still some disadvantages in staying in a hotel. First of all, the service can be poor and slowly, for this reason you can be late for a business meeting or a friends' party, I find it extremely disappointing. Second, the food can be too salty, overcooked and etc... It can be a serious problem for people with weak stomach. Third, the view from the window can be not so romantic, it can also disappoint some people, who care about the beauty around them.

Personally I'm for staying in a hotel in spite of all disadvantages. So before booking a hotel, you'd better learn some facts about it in the net or from your friends for sure. Last summer I stayed in a hotel in Turkey, everything was up to date, wonderful service, tasty food and friendly staff.

In general I am only for staying in a hotel, this will save your money, time and will be convenient.
