Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.

AVOID BIG EVENTS  Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.) cost £169.15 at Booking.com. A week later, the same room cost £118.15.

If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid—or you’re looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as Whatsonwhen.com, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.

STAYAWAY FROM THE STATION If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.

Don’t be too choosy about the part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge’s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was £95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was £75.75. And at Farringdon, a double room cost just £62.95.

LOOK AFTER YOURSELF Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune, especially at weekends and during big events. As an alternative consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen. Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings. A great example is the historic O’Neill Flat on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, available for £420 for five days in late September, with room for four adults.

GET ON A BIKE London’s ‘Boris bikes’ have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.

Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle (casual members pay around £1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or £5 per day).  (358 words)

On a hot summer day in late August, I sought shade and a cool drink at a waterfront café on a Greek island. Over a hundred degrees in    1   air. Crowded. Tempers(脾气)of both the tourists and waiters had    2  to meet the situation, making it a rather quarrelsome environment(环境)

At the table next to mine sat an attractive,    3   couple, waiting for    4 .  They held hands, whispered, kissed, and laughed. Suddenly they stood, picked up their    5   and stepped together    6   the edge of where they were sitting to place the table in the sea water. The man stepped   7  for the two chairs. He politely   8  his lady in the knee-deep water and then sat down himself. All people around laughed and cheered.

  9  appeared. He paused for just a second, walked into the water to   10   the table and take their   11  , and then walked back to the    12   cheers of the rest of his    13 . Minutes later he returned carrying a bottle of wine and two glasses. Without pausing, he went    14   into the water to     15    the wine. The couple toasted(祝酒)each other, the waiter and the crowd. And the crowd   16  by cheering and throwing flowers to them. Three other tables  17  to have lunch in the water. The place was now filled with laughter.

One doesn’t step into water in one’s best summer clothes. Why not?

Customers are not served    18   . Why not?

Sometimes one should consider   19  the line of convention(常规)and enjoy   20  to the fullest.

I was successful at my job. I worked very hard, but it 36  me and my family a fabulous (极好的) lifestyle.

My life had been so much devoted to  50  for so long, and I felt  51  that my sons were happy to welcome me into their world.

 52 , being unemployed gave me back a sense of purpose --- I was someone’s mum! I felt a sense of being  53  Again. Now I feel more positive about my professional  54  and I’m getting on better with my family than I ever have. Losing my job made me realize just how  55  it is to achieve real balance in life.
