14、kets. You will also need to call in advance to make lunch or dinner reservations (预订). Disney accepts reservations, through 1-407-WDW-DINE, up to 180 days in advance.

You probably know that theres a tradition for students to bring shiny apples to their favorite teachers. But why? No one knows for sure. The idea of an
21、apple for the teacher has been with us since the late 1800s. Perhaps the custom grew out of the fact that apples are ripe (成熟的) in September, when the school year usually begins.
