【题目】The Best Time to Visit These Pricey Destinations
If you’re going to shell out on a vacation, then you might as well do it right. With that in mind, we’ve asked a few experts for tips on when to visit some of the most expensive places across the globe. Here’s what they had to say.
Botswana
Hotels in Botswana are second only to Dubai in terms of average cost per person, per night, at around $257. To make the most of your time there, consider an autumn visit, suggests Sarah Faith of Responsible Travel. “The heat peaks in October—this is the best time to go and see wild animals as they gather around in the Okavango Delta”, says Faith. While wildlife viewing is incredible in Botswana, there’s much to enjoy away from the wilderness, too.”
New York City
New York is the second-most expensive holiday destination overall and the most expensive place to dine out, with an average meal for two costing around $67. Garrett, the CEO of Discover New York, suggests, “October and June have gorgeous weather, so outdoor activities are a good choice, with sailing, in-depth neighborhood walks and biking.” For great value, she advises traveling in January and February, when the city offers tons of indoor activities, from art galleries and Broadway shows to indoor sports events and thousands of dining options.
Sydney
With its incredible surfing beaches, dining scene and friendly locals, Sydney is always a favorite of travelers. It’s also expensive. Generally, the shoulder seasons (fall and spring in the U.S.) have the most comfortable weather and fewer crowds than the December-to-February high season. But some months have particular appeal, according to Stuart Rigg, Australian travel specialist for Southern Crossings. April, for example, falls into the low season, which means you’ll find hotel deals along with weather that’s typically “very pleasant,” Rigg says. “Sydney also has some great events during this low season period,” he adds.
London
Petulia Melideo, who runs Context’s London walking tours, advises booking well in advance for lower hotel rates, and suggests a wintry visit. “November is a great time for London. The weather is still tolerable—and if it gets too chilly, there are plenty of cozy pubs to pop into,” she says. Other good times to visit include June, which means fewer tourists.
【1】According to the passage, October is the best time to travel to________.
A. New York and Botswana B. London and Sydney
C. New York and London D. Sydney and Botswana
【2】Visitors to Sydney __________.
A. may find cheap hotels in the shoulder seasons
B. can enjoy wonderful beaches and dining scene
C. will experience the most comfortable weather in December
D. should avoid the low season because of the unpleasant weather
【3】Which is the desirable month if you’d like to visit London without too many crowds?
A. April. B. June.
C. November. D. December.
