With that in mind, weve asked a few experts for tips on when to visit some of the most expensive places across the globe. Heres what they had to say.BotswanaHotels 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 Octoberthis 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, theres much to enjoy away from the wilderness, too.”New York CityNew 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.SydneyWith its incredible surfing beaches, dining scene and friendly locals, Sydney is always a favorite of travelers. Its 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 youll find hotel deals along with weather thats typically “very pleasant,” Rigg says. “Sydney also has some great events during this low season period,” he adds.LondonPetulia Melideo, who runs Contexts 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 tolerableand 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.21.

The underlined word “anonymous” roughly means _A outstanding Bbeautiful Cexciting DunknownCDolphins（海豚） are not fish, but warm-blooded animals. They live in groups, and speak to each other in their own language. In this way they are like other animals, such as bees and birds. But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals. Their brain is nearly the same size as our own, and they live a long time -at least twenty or thirty years.Like some animals, dolphins use sound to help them find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds, but the lower part of the mouth, called the jaw.Strangely, dolphins seem to like man, and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century. In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand, they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack. From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called The Penguin shot and wounded Jack. He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the areaexcept for The Penguin.Today，some people continue to kill dolphins, but many countries of the world now protectthem and in these places it is against the law to kill them.28.

I thought, Well, I shall have the last piece. And I got it.The boy gave me a strange look, and then stood up. As he left he shouted out. This womans crazy! Everyone stared. That was embarrassing enough, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave. My face went red as red as his hair when I realized Id made a mistake. It wasnt my chocolate that hed been taking. There was mine, unopened, just under my newspaper.32.
