As far as holidays are concerned, I usually choose something cheep, so you can imagine my
surprise when my husband booked a cruise. Compared to most cruise ships, ours was not
particularly large or luxurious, and we were disappointed that there were no staff to help us with
our luggage. The situation got even worse, however, when we finally found our
accommodation. It was small, badly furnished, and dirty. What we thought of first was a prison
cell, not a luxury cabin. Like many people, I don’t find it easy to complain, but on this occasion
I had to say something because the accommodation simply wasn’t satisfactory. Reluctantly, the
staff agreed to move us to another, slightly more comfortable cabin, which proves that
complaining can work. But some of the passengers were heartbroken; they had been looking
forward to the holiday of a lifetime, this cruise was a nightmare rather than a really enjoyable
experience.

C. although the cabin was badly furnished. D. because the cabin wasn’t satisfactory.

A. She complained to them about the cabin. B. her cabin was a prison cell.
