Ex. 5. Read the text “The Hotel’ and choose the correct answers.

THE HOTEL
If he had had his way, Peter McDermott thought, he would have fired the chief house detective
weeks ago. But he had not had his way and now, once more, Mr Ogilvie, the obese ex-policeman
was missing when he was needed most. McDermott leaned down from his husky six-and-a-half feet
and jiggled the desk telephone impatiently. ‘Fifteen things break loose at once,’ he told the woman
by the window of the wide, woodpanelled office, ‘and as usual nobody can find him.’ Christine
Francis glanced at her wristwatch. It showed a few minutes before 11 p.m. ‘There’s a bar in
Baronne Street you might try.’ McDermott nodded. ‘I’ve already checked the bar. He’s not there.’
‘Our Mr Ogilvie makes his own rules,’ Christine said. ‘It’s been this way for years. We can’t do
anything about it as long as Warren Trent allows it.’ ‘You’re right,’ he acknowledged. ‘I once tried
to reorganize our detective force, and my ears were properly pinned back. I was put right back in
my place immediately.’ She said quietly, ‘I didn’t know that.’ He looked at her quizzically. ‘I
thought you knew everything.’ And usually she did. As personal assistant to Warren Trent, the
unpredictable and irritable manager and owner of New Orleans’ largest hotel, Christine was familiar
with the hotel’s inner secrets as well as its day-to-day affairs. She knew, for example, that Peter,
although employed just a few months ago, was already promoted to assistant general manager and
was virtually running the hotel, though at an ungenerous salary and with limited authority. She
knew the reasons behind that, too. They were in a file marked Confidential, brought to her by
Warren Trent himself on the day of Peter McDermott’s arrival in the hotel, and involved his
personal life. Christine asked, ‘What is breaking loose?’ McDermott gave a cheerful grin which
contorted his rugged, almost ugly features. ‘We have a complaint about a night party on the
eleventh floor; on the ninth the Duchess of Croydon claims the Duke has been insulted by a room-
service waiter; one of the guests called to say he can’t sleep because of somebody moaning horribly

in 1439; and the night manager is off sick, with the other two house officers otherwise engaged.
Besides which, I noticed a leak on the second floor next to the elevator, so we need to have it fixed
before one of the guests finds it a reason for a major complaint.’ ‘Do you have a name for the room
where the moaning is?’ Christine asked. He shook his head and lifted the phone. ‘I’ll find out.
Probably someone having a nightmare, but we’d better make sure.’ ‘All right, thanks.’ McDermott
scribbled a name and hung up. ‘Albert Wells, Montreal.’ ‘I know him,’ Christine said. ‘A nice little
man who stays here every year. I’ll check that one out.

The telephone shrilled and McDermott recognized the flat nasal voice of Herbie Chandler.
Chandler, like Ogilvie, was another of the hotel’s old-timers. ‘Could you investigate the complaint
about the night party on the eleventh?’ Peter asked. As he had half expected, there was an
immediate protest. ‘Never mind the argument, I want the complaint attended to. And send a bellboy
with a pass key to meet Miss Francis at the reception.’ He replaced the telephone before there could
be any more discussion. ‘Let’s go.’ His hand touched Christine’s shoulders slightly. ‘I have to
handle the Duke and Duchess incident. The relations between the hotel and the Croydons are
excellent, so I think a personal apology will do.’
