                      A

Florence, Italy

Who should go: Art lovers; Renaissance historians; leather handbag shoppers with high credit limits.

When to go: Spring or fall. Travellers usually avoid summer in   Florence.

Paris, France

Who should go: Starving artists; Henry Miler fans; traditional food lovers.

When to visit- Spring is   the best time. That's what they all say, anyway. Autumn isn't bad, either, and I'd rather be rooting around the south   of France in search of truffles(松露)in autumn. Summer in Paris isn't bad,   really.

Amsterdam T   Holland

Who should go: Lovers of Dutch Masters (artists I mean, like Rem-brandt, not cigars) ; bicyclists―it's a bike city in a flat land.

When to go:It can rain at   any time in Amsterdam? but that's not a rea?son for not visiting this fascinating city. Off   season tourists will be rewarded with good enough weather to stick around.   Summer is good for sun lovers.

Madrid, Spain

Who should go: Night owls―Madrid never   sleeps; art lovers―the Prado is second only to the Louvre in presenting serious art;   party-goers.

When to go: Spring, when   days are warm and the nights are pleasantly cool. Demand for outside eating   and drinking starts becoming stronger in March or April. Street life peaks(达到髙峰)in June, then slows in July and August as the temperature peaks.   Autumn is also good, although you'll risk some rain.

Venice, Italy

Who should go : Romantic dreamers who like walking through automo?bile-free streets ; your mother (she'll want you to take her there, trust me); almost anyone who wants to see something really different and   romantic.

When to go: February is   the time when the famous Venice Carnival is held and the weather is usually   cold and foggy―perfect weather for Venice. Summer? A large number of tourists in   shorts and whiny children ruin the atmosphere. You'll greatly enjoy yourself   there in spring and early fall.

True leadership is not just the ability to identify the talent and skill of the polished individuals around you. It involves being able to dig beneath the surface and discover 5   .

Once there was a boy who constantly sat and talked in his maths class, and seemed 6    in group activities. Most teachers would 7   think of him as a problem student.

However, Anna was different. She believed the student was above 8  in other areas so she created a strategy to find out.

Anna didn't 9   the parents. Instead she organized a handful of activities in class to get more information. In place of calling out for volunteers in class she created a  10  for each Friday : Girls vs Boys.

The first week the class was totally 11 . Every?one wanted to win. Even the boy had his hand up the whole time trying to get a turn. 12 , Anna waited, and waited , and waited. Finally the 13 teacher paired the boy with the most 14 girl student in class.

Now the two teams had a 15 score, and all the students sat back eager to see the result. As the teacher placed the question on the board, most of the students began to 16 their heads :this was a question they had never   17   in class.

18 the teacher yelled. Both students started doing it 19 thinking of how to solve the complex question. Their classmates, full of 20 , exclaimed, "Hurry, hurry, hurry!" The boy finished it just seconds before the girl and spun around with his 21 raised, "I won!" Almost nobody could believe the student they admired failed until Anna    22     the result.
