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)

1.The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events may __________.

In most situations, light helps us see. But when it comes to looking at the night sky, light is actually a kind of pollution. It prevents our view of some of lifes most striking sights: stars, planets, and even galaxies(銀河系).

When I was a little boy, I loved the night sky. I remember looking up and the sky was filled with stars. I became an astronomer because I was amazed by their beauty, says Robert Gent, Now in most big cities kids cant see the stars like I did.

Normally, about 2,500 individual (單個(gè)的) stars are visible to the human eyes without using any special equipment. But because of light pollution, you actually see just 200 to 300 and fewer than a dozen from some cities. Only one in three Americans can see our own galaxy with the naked eyes. Those people live far away from the lights of big cities, office buildings, and shopping malls.

Fortunately, theres an inexpensive and useful way. If we shine lights down at the ground instead of up into the sky, and use lower brightness levels, we can save big amounts of energy and keep the beauty of the night sky. Many cities and towns have passed laws limiting lights at night, making sure enough shine for safety without creating much light pollution.

Light pollution affects more than our view of the heavens and can harm wildlife. Migrating birds(候鳥(niǎo)) sometimes fly over cities and become confused by the brightness, flying in circles until they drop from exhaustion. Sea turtles need dark beaches for nesting and wont approach bright lights. Too much light at night may even affect human health. For all these reasons, researchers are working on ways to use lights only when and where they are truly needed. Everyone deserves to look up at the sky.

1.According to the text, using our naked eyes, ________.

A. people in remote areas can see more stars than those in big cities

B. over one third Americans can see our own galaxy

C. about one in three Americans in big cities can see our own galaxy

D. Americans can only see 200 to 300 stars

2.Many cities and towns have passed laws limiting lights at night mainly to ____________.

A. save the electricity

B. make sure of migrating birds safety

C. let you count the number of stars

D. avoid much light pollution

3.What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?

A. The cause of light pollution.

B. The way to reduce light pollution.

C. The effect of light pollution.

D. Peoples attitude towards light pollution.

4.The underlined word exhaustion in the last paragraph means _______ .

A. air pollution B. tiredness C. breath D. brightness

5.Which would be the best title for the text?

A. Light Pollution B. Seeking the Sky C. Stars in the Sky D. City Pollution
