Global Hotel Study: When to Book & How to Save

While vacation rentals are a great option for any trip, 56% of Americans prefer to stay in a hotel. Meanwhile, Americans are also looking for a stay that’s budget-friendly. Knowing that your day-to-

day costs can be the biggest part of your travel budget, we’ve rounded up several tips on how to get the best price on your hotel.

Unlike with flights, those who wait until the last minute to book can often score a great deal on a hotel room. We found that booking your hotel 1-3 days in advance of your stay can save you between $15-20 per night when you’re staying somewhere in the US. For international trips, booking as little as 6 days ahead for a shorter stay can help you save around $6/night. With these points in mind, here’s our best advice on when to book your hotel and how to save.

When to Book	Domestic	International
Cheapest Day to Book	Friday/ Saturday	Friday/Saturday
Most Expensive Day to Book	Tuesday	Monday/Wednesday
Cheapest Check-In Days	Sunday	Sunday or Tuesday
Most Expensive Check-In Days	Friday	Saturday

Our tips will help you create a good foundation for getting the best price possible when you search. And in order to be sure you’re getting the hotel you want, we’ve created powerful filters(筛选程序) that’ll narrow down all your options to the perfect one. These are the most popular filters used on KAYAK.

Whatever your plans are for your next stay, we’ll search hundreds of travel and hotel sites at once. So you can be confident you found the best price on the perfect hotel.

While a lot of things have changed in 2020, the end of summer once again saw pupils preparing to go back to school. Though the start of term in September was unlike any other, with many students having been absent from class for months, the benefits of returning are considerable. “Interacting with friends face-to-face, enjoying creative play, being out in the fresh air and moving their bodies-- these are all crucial (重要的) for children's mental health and academic success later in life," says parenting expert Dr. Kalanit Ben-Ari.
    The home learning period has seen an increase in time spent on screens. “Screen addiction is becoming a problem一kids are finding it hard to put aside, which can make them anxious and

restless at night. For teenagers especially, who are at the peak of their development, they’re easily affected by the increased use of things like social media and so the longer they're out of school, the more anxious they can become," he added.

Settling back into the daily routine of school is something that benefits the whole family. At school, children are stimulated and develop more self-discipline by being in class on time and doing homework. Once those habits are back in place it becomes easier to get back into the rhythm of set
bedtimes or to get them to spend less time on their phone.
    To support children as they go back, Dr. Ben-Ari recommends encouraging them to vocalize any concerns. If you sense they're worried, start by reflecting on what they're saying. Let them know that you trust they're capable of coping with it, and you don't have any doubt that they'll succeed.

Lifestyle changes can make the transition(过渡) easier, too. Simply walking or cycling to school -- or if you have to drive, parking further away and walking the final 15 minutes-- improves circula- tion and boosts mood before the school day begins. He reassures parents, though, that there's no need to worry about them settling back in. “A lot of people are concerned about an academic gap-- but children, especially young children, tend to catch up very quickly. Kids are much more resilient than we think."
24. What does Dr. Kalanit Ben-Ari expect of children?
A. They should interact with friends frequently.
B. They must return to school as soon as possible.
c. They can keep mentally and physically healthy.
D. They can realize the result of absence from school.
25. How does the home learning period affect children?
A. It makes children lazier and more worried.
B. It's more effective in building up confidence.
C. It's more likely to affect children's intelligence.

D. It affects children's sleep quality,
26. What does the underlined word “vocalize" in Paragraph 4 probably mean:
A. Deliver.    B. Organize.    C. Express.   D. Prove.
27. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?
A. To stress the need of reflecting in learning.
B. To inspire students' love for learning at school.
C. To provide guidance on returning to school life.
D. To state the benefits of returning to school for students.

As we grow old, we realize that we have so little time to read and there are so many great books that we’ve yet to get around to. Yet re-readers are everywhere around us. For certain fans, re-reading The Lord of the Rings is a conventional practice annually. One friend told me that Jane Austen's Emma can still surprise him, despite his having read it over 50 times.

New sudden clear understandings can be gained from the process of re-reading. Journalist Rebecca Mead, a long-time English woman in New York, first came across George Eliot’s Middle-        march at 17. Since then, she has read it again every five years. With each re-reading, it has opened up further; in each chapter of her life, it has resonated differently. Mead evidenced the large number of ways in which really good books not only stand the test of repeat reads, but also offer fresh gifts each time we crack their spines. These kinds of books grow with us.

Scientists have also recognized the mental health benefits of re-reading. Research conducted with readers in the US found that on our first reading, we are concerned with the “what” and the “why”. Second time round, we’re able to better appreciate the emotions that the plot continues to express. As researcher Cristel Russell of the American University explained. returning to a book “brings new or renewed appreciation of both the great book and its readers.”

It’s true that we often find former selves on the pages of old books (if we’re fond of making notes on the pages). These texts can carry us back to a time and place, and remind us of the kind of person that we were then. We're changed not only by lived experience but also by read experience — by the books that we've discovered since last reading the one in our hand.

More so than the movie director or the musician, the writer calls upon our imaginations, using words to lead us to picture this declaration of love or that unfaithfulness in life. A book is a joint project between writers and readers, and we must pour so much of ourselves into reading that our own life story can become connected with the story in the book.

Perhaps what’s really strange is that we don’t re-read more often. After all, we watch our favourite films again and we wouldn’t think of listening to an album only once. We treasure messy old paintings as objects, yet of all art forms, literature alone is a largely one-time delight. A book, of course, takes up more time, but as Mead confirms, the rewards make it adequately worthwhile.

28．The two books are mentioned in Paragraph 1 mainly to__________.
