If you"re a shoestring traveller, there"s no getting around it-England isn"t cheap. Public transport,
restaurants and hotel rooms all tend (趋向) to be expensive compared to many other European countries.
But you can save money by staying in B&Bs instead of hotels, or hostels instead of B&Bs. You can also
save considerably,by prebooking long-distance travel by coach or train-and by avoiding (避开) the times
when everyone else is on the move (such as Friday afternoon). Many attractions are free or offer
discounts on quiet days (eg Mondays). | 核心考点
