PROBLEM: Sentence 1: Carcassonne can be disappointing at first sight; the best overall view is from the autoroute and the town is perhaps most impressive when illuminated at night. Sentence 2: Carcassonne in the daytime is not nearly as impressive as it is at night.

SOLUTION: travel

PROBLEM: Sentence 1: So, bidding should be leisurely when bidders have little to learn from each other (say, when they're bidding on a new computer that's been widely reviewed) and intense when some bidders are far more expert than others (say, when they're bidding on a heart defibrillator for home use). Sentence 2: Bidding differently depending on the respective expert-levels of the bidders is ultimately better for consumers.
