28、It's never too early to start thinking about your summer vacation. Here are tips on how to plan a summer vacation that's relaxing and cheap.
If your summer vacation window is wide open, why not consider skipping July and August altogether? 【1】However, if you're set on travelling during high season, you can still save by being flexible. Flying out on a Tuesday instead of a Friday could save you a bit of money. 【2】 Portugal and Eastern Europe are much cheaper than France or the United Kingdom, while a trip to Southeast Asia could be more affordable than you might expect.
【3】 If you plan on flying to your destination, for example, it will be much easier to find seats on your preferred flights if you book in March than if you were to wait until the last minute. The same thing applies to hotels.
With so many places to see and things to do, planning a trip can be very tiring. 【4】 Seasoned tour companies take the stress out of travel so all you have to do is show up and enjoy yourself. More importantly, when you break down the costs of joining a guided tour vs booking everything on your own, you'll often find the tour saves lots of money.
【5】 Especially if you're flying on a cheap airline that does not include luggage, this can be a huge cost saver. Once you're on the ground, if you don't have luggage weighing you down, it will be easier for you to walk a mile to your hotel than take a taxi.
A.A package tour is a good choice if you're very tired.
B.There are so many fun things to do in the summer.
C.Don't forget about the destination you're considering.
D.Decide how much you have to spend on your vacation.
E.One of the smartest things you can do when travelling is pack light.
F.It's always in your best interest to book your summer vacation early.
G.It's better to travel in the spring or early fall when flights and hotels are cheaper.

The awful night 【1】, and the dawn greyly broke on THE LACT DAY OF POMPEII! The crowd looked upwards, and saw, with 【2】, a huge cloud shooting from the top of the volcano.

This fire moved and changed in colour with every moment: now it was wildly bright, now of a 【3】red, and now again it burnt with 【4】.
The cries of women 【5】 ; the men looked at each other, but were silent. At that moment, they felt the earth shaking 【6】; beyond in the distance, they heard the crash of 【7】. A moment later, the mountain-cloud seemed to roll towards them, cark and rapid, like a river; at the same time, it threw out a shower of ashes and huge pieces of burning stone! Over the empty streets—over the forum—far and wide—with many a noisy crash in 【8】—fell that awful shower!
