Save Your Time, Money and Stress with Savvy 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. 1.

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). 2.

3.

For a city trip, you may not even need a rental car. Research whether mass transit, taxi, Uber, bike rental, and other transportation methods will suffice. 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

4. In conjunction 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. 5. 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

Too often young people get themselves employed quite by accident, not knowing what lies in the way of opportunity for promotion, happiness and security. As a result, they are employed in doing jobs that afford them little or no satisfaction.

Our school leavers face so much competition that they seldom care what they do as long as they can earn a living. Some stay long at a job and learn to like it; others leave one for another looking for something to suit them. The young graduates who leave the university look for jobs that offer a salary up to their expectation.

Very few go out into the world knowing exactly what they want and realizing their own abilities. The reason behind all this confusion is that there never has been a proper vocational (職業(yè)的) guidance in our educational institution. Nearly allfeel their way in the dark. Their chief concern when they lookfor a job is to ask what salary is like. They never bother tothink whether they are suited for the job or, even more important, whether the job suits them. Having a job is more thanmerely providing yourself and your dependants (受贍養(yǎng)者)with daily bread and some money for leisure and entertainment.It sets a pattern of life and, in many ways, determines social status in life, selection of friends, leisure and interest.

In choosing a profession you should first consider the type of work which will suit your interest. Nothing is more sad than taking on a job in which you have no interest, for it will not only ruin your talents but also discourage your desire to succeed in life.

1.Few school leavers have plans for the long term when finding jobs because ________.

A. they are lowly paid

B. they are not well trained

C. it is difficult to get employed

D. they don't know what they are interested in

2.According to the passage, the difficulty in choosing a suitable job mainly lies in that ________.

A. much competition has to be faced

B. many employees have no working experience

C. the young people only care about how much they can earn

D. schools fail to offer students appropriate vocational guidance

3.In the writer's opinion, which of the following statements is most important?

A. Your job must suit your interest.

B. Your job must set a pattern of life.

C. Your job must offer you a high salary.

D. Your job must not ruin your talents.

If you think about your circle of friends and family members, you can certainly pick out one or more people who are not good listeners. 1. If you’re fortunate, that person is a good friend, a loved one or a teacher.

All too often, we associate the benefits of good listening skills with achieving very specific outcomes, like following the boss’s orders (aimed at getting a job promotion).

2. We think of them as something basic, which we mastered in our formal schooling, along with dictation and obeying instructions, etc. This is a shame. We should know listening skills are the focus of lifetime learning and development, related to our communication skills.

3. All of these occur because two people or groups don’t listen to each other. We don’t analyze the root problem, or work on improvement steps.

We still tend to treat listening skills the way we treat learning to walk: we think that once we’ve acquired them, we’ve got them. We are ready to move on to the next thing. Wrong. 4.

Poor listening skills often damage effective dialogue between people. 5. If we were able to reduce misunderstandings in our conversations by 20-30%, there would be benefits in efficiency and the elimination (消除) of tiresome repetition.

A. However, think about the upside potential.

B. We’re surrounded by this kind of outcome.

C. We tend to undervalue the importance of our listening skills.

D. Think about the number of failures, misunderstandings and arguments.

E. Equally you can think of someone you know who is a very good listener.

F. The challenge of listening is determining when the speaker wants a response or advice.

G. The problem is that people and language are far more complex than the roads we travel on.

While it is impossible to live completely free of stress, it is possible to prevent stress as well as reduce its effect when it can’t be avoided. 1. .

Try physical activity.

2. . Running, walking, playing tennis, and working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try.

Make time for yourself.

Schedule time for both work and entertainment. Don’t forget, play can be just as important to your overall well-being as work. 3. Go window-shopping or work on a hobby. Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy.

Take care of yourself.

4. If you easily get angry and can’t sleep well enough, or if you are not eating properly, it will be more likely that you will fall into stressful situations. If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult a doctor.

5. .

Stress can result from disorganization and a feeling that “there’s so much to do, and not enough time”. Trying to take care of everything at once can be too much for you and as a result, you may not achieve anything. Instead, make a list of everything you have to do, then do one thing at a time, checking off each task as it is completed. Set out to do the most important task first.

A．You should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest.

B．Do whatever you like and want to do.

C．The following are suggestions for ways to deal with stress.

D．You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun.

E．When you are nervous, angry or upset, try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity.

F．You could smile to yourself in front of a mirror every day.

G．Make a list of things to do.
