Exercise 5

1.A hotel is an establishment that provides paid lodging on a short-term basis. The provision of basic accommodation, in times past, consisting only of a room with a bed, a cupboard, a small table and a washstand has largely been replaced by rooms with modern facilities, including en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning or climate control. Additional common features found in hotel rooms are a telephone, an alarm clock, a television, and Internet connectivity; snack foods and drinks may be supplied in a mini-bar, and facilities for making hot drinks.

3.Academic self-efficacy, academic integration, social integration, and persistence among first-semester community college transfer students at a four-year institution
by Whorton, Susan Stanley, Ph.D., Clemson University, 2009 , 182 pages; AAT 3355166

Abstract (Summary)
The purpose of this study was to investigate differences in the academic self-efficacy, academic integration, social integration, and persistence among community college students from a selected community college during their first semester at a four-year institution. More specifically, differences between students who participated in a first-year transfer transition program and students who did not participate in a transfer transition program were investigated. Using a quantitative cross-sectional survey research design, data regarding transfer students' academic self-efficacy and perceived cohesion beliefs were collected from a web-based survey. These data were analyzed along with students' first semester academic performance and persistence data collected from the student records database at a four-year institution following the students' first semester of enrollment.

-Initially, the (AES) home system was only available for rent to commercial establishments, such as hotel chains, bars and restaurants, and other venues. When customer response indicated that some gamers were willing to buy a $600 console, SNK expanded sales and marketing into the home console market. Compared to the other 16-bit consoles of the time, Neo Geo's graphics and sound were vastly superior. Furthermore, since the AES was identical to its arcade counterpart, the MVS, arcade-titles released for the home market were, by definition, perfect translations. Although its high pricetag kept it out of the mainstream gaming market, a strong game-lineup likely contributed to the cult status of the Neo Geo, enabling it to outlast the more popular Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis
