本期主題About a hotel reservation 賓館預(yù)訂

關(guān)鍵字：check in入住辦理; update an upgrade.（客房/艙位）升級

主持人開場吐槽:哇，這家伙真好運(yùn)！竟然從普通房免費(fèi)升級到總統(tǒng)套房。That is nice. The guy is excited and he’s gonna get the presidential suite.

----------------phrases and vocabulary----------

1.under the name of...以……名字（預(yù)定）

have a reservation under the name of ...

2.mix-up弄混（淆）=a confusion or a misunderstanding

Example（搞笑例子：嬰兒抱錯(cuò)）

I’m sorry, sir there‘s been a terrible mix-up.

We‘ve given you the wrong baby(傳來嬰兒響亮哭聲)。

3.overbooked超額預(yù)定/超賣: if a hotels or a flight is ~, it means that they are full, they

are more than full.如a bus/a train can be overbooked

4.a complimentary upgrade 免費(fèi)升級（客房，艙位）

----------免費(fèi)升級大討論------------------

免費(fèi)升級原因:乘客不是過錯(cuò)方 because it was not your fault.

怎樣升級，如賓館if all of standard rooms are full. Give you a better room or more expensive room, but free. 如乘飛機(jī)時(shí)從經(jīng)濟(jì)艙免費(fèi)升級到商務(wù)艙或頭等艙if you are in 'economic class' in an airplane, they will move you to 'business class' or 'first-class' for free.

比如本集最后，男主人公要樂死了:本來訂的普通房，沒曾想換到總統(tǒng)套房He was really expecting a normal room and he’s now gonna be treated like a king.

兩個(gè)主持人吐槽享受過的升級待遇

Marco：在印度乘火車從普通座升級到頭等座bought a normal seat in a train...to a first-class.

Amira：從上海飛往卡塔爾，乘夜班飛機(jī)（無超額預(yù)定）仍免費(fèi)升級到頭等艙。

繼續(xù)吐槽頭等艙好處 ：

Marco：真想乘飛機(jī)時(shí)次次碰到頭等艙升級！I would prefer a first class upgrade on anairplane, yeah, any day.

Amira：一餐有五道菜，飲料暢飲！have a five course meal and get all the drinks you can get
