Actually, many good qualities of my father are worth admiring except this.My father is the person who constantly looks for mistakes in other people and he thinks no one is p

20、erfect in the world. His character created a negative atmosphere in my family.

I got a free airplane ticket, but

27、had to pay the hotel in cash, which I really couldnt afford. I found a travel website where a discounted 3-night stay was purchased from a recently opened hotel.About three weeks before the trip, I had to regretfully cancel and only then did I realize the room, while transferable to another person,

28、couldnt be changed to a later date and wasnt refundable. For the next two weeks I tried selling it on Craigs list with no success. Five days before the “big weekend”, I gave up trying to get any money back and decided Id contact some acquaintances who live in Chicago and offer someone a free “stayca

29、tion”. After trying a handful of people, all of whom already had their own plans, I was determined to have the room not go to waste.Thats when it suddenly occurred to me that I was looking at the rooms in the wrong way. Instead of viewing them for vacation purposes, surely there must be a way to put

30、 them to good use, and that was when the idea that some sort of shelter might be able to use it hit me. I eventually found one whose focus is aiding victims of domestic violence. This particular one was willing to listen to my out-of-left-field story and made it easier to transfer the rooms. The she

31、lter was working with a desperate woman and her daughter, who were fortunately able to make use of the room. I was later told by the shelter “they had a blast”.1、We can learn from paragraph 1 that the author _.Ahad a tight budget for his holidayBbought his flight ticket using cashCplanned to go on b
