When you are travelling, whether on business or for pleasure, you often need to stay

in a hotel. The kind of hotel you choose probably is decided above all according to how much

money you want to spend. There are small hotels with very few services, where the prices are

low, or there are large hotels with all the very latest comforts, where you could spend a lot of the

money you have in the bank for one very comfortable night.

There are several different kinds of people who go to hotels. Some want to live, rather than

just stay, in a hotel; the hotels which are designed to meet their needs are called residential

hotels(长住型饭店). However, most people who stay in hotels are either business people or

tourists on holiday.

In most hotels, there are two kinds of rooms: single rooms, for the use of one person, and

double rooms, for the use of two people. In addition, in large hotels, there are also suites(套房),

which include two or more rooms connected together — perhaps a bed-room and a living room.

They are for people who are very rich or very important.

Dear Social Security,

I am applying for a new Social Security Card.

I lost my old one last week, I was walking home from the subway station, and I pulled a

tissue(纸巾)out of my pocket and lost my wallet at the same time. My card was in my wallet.

Please send me a new card. If you can get the card to me within two weeks, please sent it to

my old address . If it will take longer than this, then you will have to send it to my new address.

I am moving on May 23rd to 103 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 28445.

If you can send my new card within two weeks, I would be very pleased. I am applying for

a new job at Ventura Savings Bank, and I know they will want to have my Social Security

Number. Unfortunately I have forgotten it, so I will need my card to find out. On my old card I

was called Victoria Matthews. Since then I have gotten married. Please send my new card to me

using my married name: Victoria Villata. In case you need more information about me to get

my old number, my date of birth was September 11, 1985. Thank you very much.

Sincerely

Victoria Villata

There are stories about two U．S . presidents，Andrew Jackson and Martin Van

Buren，which attempt to explain the American English term OK．We don’t know if either

story is true，but they are both interesting．

The first explanation is based on the fact that President Jackson had very little education．In

fact，he had difficulty reading and writing．When important papers came to Jackson，he

to“OK”．

The second explanation is based on the place where President Van Buren was born，Old
