Save Your Time, Money and Stress with Savvy (懂行,悟性)Rental Car Strategies
Renting a car can be expensive, confusing, and stressful — but it doesn't have to be. Here are several helpful strategies to save money, time, and stress on your next (and every) car rental.
Sign Up for Loyalty Programs
Rental car loyalty programs are free to join, so register for any programs you might use in the future. My favorite car rental loyalty program benefit is that I can skip the counter and head right to my reserved car. Some programs allow members to choose a car from the available pool.
Optimize Your Strategy
Do you really need a rental car from the airport? For instance, if your flight arrives at night, take a free hotel shuttle and pick up your car the next day. The car rental location might even be at your hotel or can pick you up (or deliver the car to you).

For a city trip, you may not even need a rental car. Research whether mass transit(運輸), taxi, Uber, bike rental, and other transportation methods will suffice(足夠). Parking charges at downtown hotels may cost more than your car rental rate, so it may be doubly in your favor to give up a rental car. In some locations, a bike might be more efficient and economical than a car.
Search for Specials
In conjunction(結(jié)合)with your personal discount code, you may also find a last-minute rate, free rental day, or other promotion. My favorite annual travel deal is driving a car one-way out of Florida after Spring Break with rates as low as $1 per day.
Consider Alternative Rental Options
Major car rental companies might have an associated discount brand at your rental location, like Firefly for Hertz.
An independent or smaller local agency may fit your needs; like A1 or Lucky Owl in Honolulu. Many people prefer to check rates on Hotwire and Priceline, especially for last-minute rentals.
A.Rental rates are likely lower away from the airport, plus you might save the cost of an entire rental day.
B.I use discount-finding websites to track my car reservations.
C.Smaller brands, like Thrifty and Fox, might offer better service and lower rates.
D.In addition to saving time and offering freedom of choice, loyalty members earn points and receive special promotions.
E.Check car rental company websites for current specials.
F.Skip the Car
G.Use a bike

【答案】D;A;F;E;C
【解析】本文介紹節(jié)省你的時間、金錢和壓力與精力的租車策略。

(1)D根據(jù)上文Some programs allow members to choose a car from the available pool. 一些程序允許成員從可用共同資金中選擇一輛汽車。從這里得知“有了汽車會節(jié)省時間”。可知下文的意思應(yīng)該是:除了節(jié)省時間,并提供選擇的自由,忠誠成員賺取積分,并獲得特殊的促銷活動。D項符合題意。

(2)A根據(jù)上句:租車位置可能甚至是在你的酒店或可以接你?芍戮鋺(yīng)該和租車有關(guān),A.Rental rates are likely lower away from the airport, plus you might save the cost of an entire rental day.離開機(jī)場出租率可能較低,此外,你可能會節(jié)省一個整個租賃日的成本?芍狝項符合題意。

(3)F此空是一個小標(biāo)題。根據(jù)下文內(nèi)容:For a city trip, you may not even need a rental car.對一個城市旅行,你甚至不需要一輛出租汽車。to give up a rental car. 放棄一輛出租車。In some locations, a bike might be more efficient and economical than a car. 在一些位置,一輛自行車可能比一輛汽車更有效、更經(jīng)濟(jì)。可知F.Skip the Car符合題意,故選F。

(4)E根據(jù)下句:結(jié)合您的個人折扣代碼,您還可以找到最后一分鐘的價格,免費的租賃日,或其他促銷。也就是尋找特價。可知此空的意思是:檢查汽車租賃公司的網(wǎng)站當(dāng)前特價。故選E。

(5)C根據(jù)上句:主要的汽車出租公司在你的租賃地可能有一個相關(guān)的折扣品牌。在根據(jù)空格下句:一個獨立或較小的地方機(jī)構(gòu)可以滿足你的需要?芍狢.Smaller brands, like Thrifty and Fox, might offer better service and lower rates. 較小的品牌,像Thrifty and Fox,可能會提供更好的服務(wù)和較低的利率。故選C。

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
The principles about applying for jobs have altered greatly lately. In the past, people preferred a handwritten application letter. However, nowadays it is becoming more and more common to apply for a job through the Internet. You can find information on the Internet about how to apply for jobs. Information can be found about how to fulfill your application letter, the clothes that you should wear and how to carry out the interview itself.
The importance of body language is often mentioned, but doesn't always get the attention it deserves. After all, before a word has even been spoken, your body language will have already given people their first impression of you. Additionally, your body language will also give out a lot more information. Based on your body language it can be seen if you are self-confident. It can also show if you are a busy or a quiet type and it helps give an impression of whether you are speaking truthfully or not. Body language can show how enthusiastic you are and if you are a nice person, someone who will take his work seriously, but also someone who has a sense of humor and can enjoy a joke from time to time. The members of the application committee will ask you questions, but your answers won't only be oral. The committee will not only pay attention to what you say, but also to how you say it! Body language will determine first if it “clicks”, and sometimes all it takes is just a few seconds. Everybody uses body language, but it takes place mostly at a subconscious (下意識的) level. Using body language appropriately, you can definitely increase your chances of getting a job.
(1)What kind of people is the text mainly meant for?
