5. Select the correct option to complete the reviews from Charlie’s Hotel in Montego Bay.

I chose Charlie’s Hotel to stay at in Montego Bay specifically because of its


services for kids. There are (a) too much / a lot of games to engage children
and there is a Kid’s Club where they can paint, dance, and sing. So, there
is (b) not much / enough time for them to get bored. On the other hand,
there are (c) not many / not much food options. I’m a vegetarian and it was
very disappointing to find (d) too many / too much meat and chicken on the
menu, but not (e) enough / too much vegetarian dishes. Most people at this
hotel are super friendly, so I don’t have (f) too many / any complaints about
the staff. It’s just that some of them take (g) too much / too many time to
bring you a drink after ordering it.

I just returned today from Charlie’s Hotel. I spent (h) enough / too many
time there to realize that there are (i) too much / a lot of things to improve
in the restaurant. I think they use (j) too much / not many plastic dishware.
I guess it is because there are (k) enough / too many kids running around,
but there aren’t (l) too much / enough adults to keep an eye on them.
However, the good point about this hotel’s restaurant is that it provides
(m) a lot of / not much information about the dishes’ ingredients to prevent
allergic reactions.

Although global mobility and tourism make people more familiar with other

run by powerful nations and their multinational corporations, which are not
always concerned about community development. Besides, a great number of
tourists are from developed countries and expect services similar to those they Dictionary

a possible way to define the boundaries between generations can be
