Taking the dog to the beach on a hot summer's day is a great way to relax. But not all beaches are dog friendly. So if you're looking to take your dog to the coast this summer, here's a few of the country's most dog-friendly beaches.

Sunshine Beach
Where: Noosa, Queensland
Only a 10-minute drive from Noosa, Sunshine Beach also welcomes dogs with open paws. Once known as Golden Beach, its long white beaches make it a paradise for anyone who loves fishing, boating, surfing or just relaxing on the beach with family and friends.
Restrictions (限定): Dogs can freely explore the shoreline from Noosa National Park to the path leading from Seaview Terrace.
Tallow Beach
Where: Byron Bay, New South Wales
With white sand that stretches (延伸) for miles, and clean, clear waters washing its shores, Byron certainly doesn't want for beautiful beaches — and Tallow Beach is no exception. This seven-kilometer-long beach stretches all the way to Broken Head Reserve.
Restrictions: The beach's dog-friendly area starts near Jarman Street and stretches north to the outside of Arakwal National Park.
Muirs Beach
Where: Coles Bay, Tasmania
One of the few beaches that falls outside of Freycinet National Park, Muirs, is a great family beach that welcomes dogs, too. Compared to famous sheltered beaches of Freycinet, it is more open to the waves from the Tasman Sea, making it ideal for windsurfing. The beach itself is very long, so there is plenty of space to let your dog run free.
Restrictions: Dog owners must respect the environment and use the poop bags provided at the entrance to the beach to get rid of any dog waste.Fines apply (运用).
Yorkeys Knob Beach
Where: Queensland
Located just 15 minutes from Cairns, Yorkeys Knob Beach is a great spot to relax with your dog. Named after a local fisherman called "Yorkey" who lived on the rocky hill (“knob”), this wonderful little beach is one of the best-kept secrets in Tropical North Queensland. It is ideal for swimming and snorkelling in the summer season.
Restrictions: The southern end of the beach is the "dog off-chain" end where your dog is allowed to run free; dogs must be on a chain in all other areas of the beach.

What can we learn from the underlined sentence?

A.Tallow Beach is not popular in Byron Bay.
B.Beautiful beaches are not important in Byron Bay.
C.Tallow Beach is the most beautiful beach in Byron Bay.
D.Tallow Beach is one of the beautiful beaches in Byron Bay.

On Muirs Beach, if people do not get rid of dog waste,         .

A.it’s just fine to let it be
B.they have to clean the beach
C.they’ll get punished by paying money
D.they have to provide poop bags at the entrance to the beach

Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A.All beaches welcome people together with their dogs.
B.Tallow Beach was named after a local fisherman.
C.Yorkeys Knob Beach is a good place for windsurfing.
D.Dogs can run free only on some of the beaches mentioned above.

Exploit your parking space
An unused parking space or garage can make money. If you live near a city center or an airport, you could make anything up to £200 or £300 a week. Put an advertisement(广告)for free on Letpark or Atmyhousepark.
Rent a room
Spare room? Not only will a lodger(房客)earn you an income, but also, thanks to the government-backed “rent a room” program, you won’t have to pay any tax on the first £4500 you make per year. Try advertising your room on Roomspare or Roommateeasy.
Make money during special events
Won’t want a full-time lodger? Then rent on a short-term basis. If you live in the capital, renting a room out during the Olympics or other big events could bring in money, Grashpadder can advertise your space.
Live on set
Renting your home out as a “film set” could earn you hundreds of pounds a day, depending on the film production company and how long your home is needed. A quick search on the Internet will bring up dozens of online companies that allow you to register your home for free—but you will be charged if your home gets picked.
Use your roof
You need the right kind of roof, but some energy companies pay the cost of fixing solar equipment(around£14,000), and let you use the energy produced for nothing. In return, they get paid for unused energy fed back into the National Grid. However, you have to sign a 25-year agreement with the supplier, which could prevent you from changing the roof.
If you earn £5000 from renting a room in one year, the tax you need to pay will be based on ______.

A.£800 B.£500 C.£4500 D.5000

Where can you put an advertisement to rent out a room during a big event?

A.On Letpark. B.On Roomspare. C.On Grashpadder. D.On Roommateeasy.

If you want to use energy free, you have to_____.

A.sign an agreement with the government
B.pay around £14,000 for the equipment
C.sell the roof to some energy companies

Dear Sirs,
As a concerned parent, I am writing to protest your recent advertisement for Electro-Robo seen in local media in California. Specifically, I am referring to newspaper and magazine ads (attached to this letter) published the week of November 15.
Children respond to your type of advertising in an immature way; that is, they are unable to understand how expensive some toys are for middle class parents. Further, your product is violent in nature. Your advertisement gives children the impression that it’s fine to have “two guns and laser eyes.” You also suggest that children need your toy to protect them “when you go outside.” This is not a healthy attitude for children to have.
I hope you will stop advertising your product in such a way that may harm our children.
Sincerely yours,
(Mrs.) Alma Hernandez
President, Parents for Non violent Toys

It’s Here! Ready for You, Now!  It’s Electro Robo!

Standing 80 centimeters tall, Electro-Robo is like a friend at home. He can walk, talk, and even shake your hand! He has two guns and laser eyes to help you defend yourself when you go outside with him. Every boy needs Electro-Robo!
Ask your Mom and Dad to buy Electro-Robo for your birthday or for Christmas, which is coming up soon. Imagine that you are in control of your friend for life, Electro- Robo!
Available at all toy stores and department stores NOW!

What is the purpose of the letter?

A.To complain about a broken toy. B.To order a gift for Christmas.
