Question:
It is indeed a palace . Probably the fanciest hotel I have ever been into , the Metropolitan had some vacancies with my name on it . Salary wise , I am offered 10,000 dirhams by the school , however I must worry about accommodation , and in this place , and it gets expensive . I was expecting about 5000 Dirhams plus everything else to work in a hotel .

Why is the Metropolitan so expensive compared to other accommodations ?
Answer:
The Metropolitan offers a lot of space .

Question:
George W. Bush , Sarah Palin , Newt Gingrich , Sean Hannity , and the misguided Republicans who stayed behind to protest during the congressional recess are wrong . If the petroleum industry and their apologists in politics and the media get their way , and they pump the wells dry before turning to alternatives , a worldwide economic catastrophe will ensue . Had the leaders of the Carter and Reagan administrations been more courageous and foresighted following the last energy crisis , the shift from expensive and dirty fossil fuels to clean and renewable energy would be well underway . Instead , oil costs $ 110 per barrel , gas and diesel cost averages of $ 3.68 and $ 4.12 per gallon respectively in the United States , and the transition from petroleum has hardly begun .

Why is the narrator so pessimistic about the United States ?
Answer:

Question:
Not at all , just , contemplative I guess . But not in a bad way . Anyway , by the time I got back it was pretty late , so I called Jake and settled in . The next morning I decided a different approach , and maybe thing 's feel different in the light of day , but when I went back , and poked around more , not even too sure if I was in the right place , I dunno , it just felt , off , wrong , just weird to me , like I should n't be there , and probably that 's because I should n't have been . I know that , it just took me a little while to catch up to acting on it .

What may be the reason for them poking around ?
Answer:
They suspect someone is cheating on them .

God has a reason for everything .
