The doormen opened the hotel’s glass doors for Paul and the boy entered. The thick carpet under his feet had the colors of a thousand jewels. The lights sparkled from crystal chandeliers. Paul told the hotel clerk he was from Washington, D. C. He said his mother and fa-ther were arriving in a few days from Europe. He explained he was going to wait for them at the hotel. In his dreams Paul had planned this trip to New York a hundred times. He knew all about the Waldorf-Astoria, one of New York’s most expensive hotels. As soon as he en-tered his rooms, he saw that everything was perfect—except for one thing. He rang the bell and asked for fresh flowers to be sent quickly to his rooms. 中英文例句 1.
