Watchdog takes aim at hotel booking sites

Some sites may be making misleading claims about discounts, the Competition and Markets Authority said. It is also examining whether sites are giving a false impression of room availability and "rushing" customers into booking decisions. The CMA did not name which companies it has been investigating, but leading sites include Expedia and Booking.com. The extent to which a hotel's ranking may be influenced by the size of the commission it pays was another issue highlighted by the CMA. 'Trust' The CMA, which launched its investigation into online booking sites in October, says it has sent warning letters to "a range of sites", demanding they review their practices to make sure they are fair and comply with consumer protection law.

It can be hard to know which poems will spur your middle and high schoolers into deep, meaningful discussion and which will leave them, ahem, yawning. So we asked experienced teachers to share their favorites—the punch-in-the-gut poems that always get a reaction, even from teens.

Here’s what they had to say about the best poems for middle school and high school students. 1. Snow by David Berman Captures a narrative in miniature with a creative structure. 2. Students won’t soon forget this poem, both for the story and the sensory details. Pub_D467_Storytelling_handbook_FINAL_web. Best Short Stories for Middle Schoolers, As Chosen by Teachers. It can be a challenge to get middle schoolers interested in reading. The thought of tackling a thick novel can be overwhelming, especially during distance learning.

We asked our audience on Facebook and Instagram to share some of their favorite short stories for middle schoolers.

The 11 cities most likely to run out of drinking water - like Cape Town

However, the plight of the drought-hit South African city is just one extreme example of a problem that experts have long been warning about - water scarcity. Despite covering about 70% of the Earth's surface, water, especially drinking water, is not as plentiful as one might think. Only 3% of it is fresh. Over one billion people lack access to water and another 2.7 billion find it scarce for at least one month of the year. According to UN-endorsed projections, global demand for fresh water will exceed supply by 40% in 2030, thanks to a combination of climate change, human action and population growth.

It shouldn't be a surprise, then, that Cape Town is just the tip of the iceberg. 1. At the height of the crisis, the city of over 21.7 million inhabitants had less than 20 days of water supply and police had to escort water trucks to stop looting.
