A
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 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 Roommate easy.
Make money during special events
Don’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.
21. 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
22. 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.
23. 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
D. keep the roof unchanged for within 25 years
B
One early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again. My interest was aroused only by the fact that the word “Poems” appeared in big, hot pink letters.
“Is it good ” I asked her.
“Yeah,” she answered. “There’s one I really like and you’ll like it, too.” I leaned forward.
‘Patty Poem,’ she read the title. Who is Patty I wondered. The poem began:
She never puts her toys away,
Just leaves them scattered① where they lay,… ①散乱的
The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:
When she grows and gathers poise②, ②稳重
I’ll miss her harum-scarum③ noise, ③莽撞的
And look in vain④ for scattered toys. ④徒劳地
And I’ll be sad.
A terrible sorrow washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock.
“It’s you, honey,” My mother said sadly.
To my mother, the poem revealed a parent’s affection when her child grows up and leaves. To me, the “she” in the poem was horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible that I burst out crying.
“What’s wrong ” my mother asked.
“Oh Mama,” I cried. “I don’t want to grow up ever!”
She smiled. “Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll still love you, okay ”
“Okay,” I was still weeping. My panic has gone. But I could not help thinking about that silly poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was confused. It all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple I could plainly understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated by the idea of poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.
I have since fallen in love with other poems, but “Patty Poem” remains my poem. After all, “Patty Poem” gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my spirits, but because it was the one that hurt me the most.
24. Why was the writer attracted by the book Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again
A. It was a thick enough book. B. Something on its cover caught her eye.
C. Her mother was reading it with interest. D. It has a meaningful title.
25. After her mother read the poem to her, the writer felt ______ at first.
A. sad B. excited C. horrified D. confused
26. The writer’s mother liked to read “Patty Poem” probably because______.
A. it reflected her own childhood B. it was written in simple language
C. it was composed by a famous poet D. it gave her a hint of what would happen
27. It can be concluded from the passage that “Patty Poem” leads the writer to _______.
A. discover the power of poetry B. recognize her love for puzzles
C. find her eagerness to grow up D. experience great homesickness
C
Do women and men think differently
When talking about the two sexes, people often say that men are from Mars and women are from Venus. Undeniably, men and women have great differences in many ways.
However, these contrasts in character could all be down to supposed differences between the male and female brain. For example, a study led by British psychologist Stuart Ritchie in 2012 found that men’s brains are on average 10 percent bigger than women’s.
And another study led by Israeli psychologist Daphna Joel at Tel Aviv University in 2015 further claimed that differences exist in male and female brains, although each individual's brain has a “mix of features”, as New Scientist wrote. But Lise Eliot, a professor of neuroscience at the Chicago Medical School, begs to differ. She recently said that the brain “is a unisexorgan(单一性别器官)”. Through analyzing brain data of several different men and women, Eliot found that the statistics about brain differences mean nothing. According to her findings, male and female brains are much more different from each other than male or female hearts or kidneys. And more importantly, these differences don’t show that male and female brains work differently.
So, if it’s not in the brain, what makes males and females behave differently The answer may lie in socialization, according to The Atlantic.
In the past, many gender (性别) studies ignored the effects of a person's social background and upbringing, instead relying on other data. Take former Harvard University president Lawrence Summers for example. He used a 1970 study that showed men outperformed women 13-to-one on the math part of the SAT to argue that males are more suited to science subjects.
However, another study found that if females were given better opportunities to study science subjects, the ratio would drop to three-to-one.
Eliot's study contributed in an important way to the conversation, neuropharmacologist Margaret McCarthy at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore, US, told Science magazine.
Yet, at the same time, McCarthy believes that classing males and females as essentially the same is going too far.
Why were Ritchie and Joel's studies mentioned in the article
A. To explain the causes of behavioral differences in men and women.
B. To show how men and women differ in character.
C. To explain the differences between male and female brains.
D. To explore the features of male and female brains.
What did Eliot's study find
A. Male and female brains are exactly the same.
B. Male and female brains do not differ in function.
C. Brain data is not useful for conducting gender studies.
D. Male and female brains have fewer differences than other organs.
What causes the differences in behavior between men and women, according to The Atlantic
A. Brain size. B. Intelligence.
C. Social environment. D. Learning ability.
31. Which statement would McCarthy probably agree with
A. It's important to give equal opportunities to men and women.
B. It's unnecessary to study the differences between men's and women's brains.
C. Eliot's study offers a good explanation for gender differences.
D. Male brains are better at solving science problems.
D
Treasure hunts have excited people’s imagination for hundreds of years both in real life and in books such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. Kit Williams, a modern writer, had the idea of combining the real excitement of a treasure hunt with clues found in a book when he wrote a children’s story, Masquerade, in 1979. The book was about a hare, and a month before it came out, Williams buried a gold hare in a park in Bedfordshire. The book contained a large number of clues to help readers find the hare, but Williams put in a lot of “red herrings ”, or false clues, to mislead them.
Ken Roberts, the man who found the hare, had been looking for it for nearly two years. Although he had been searching in the wrong area most of the time, he found it by logic, not by luck. His success came from the fact that he had gained an important clue at the start. He had realized that the words “One of Six to Eight” under the first picture in the book connected the hare in some way to Katherine of Aragon, the first of Henry VIII’s six wives. Even here, however, Williams had succeeded in misleading him. Ken knew that Katherine of Aragon had died at Kimbolton in Cambridgeshire in 1536 and thought that Williams had buried the hare there. He had been digging there for over a year before a new idea occurred to him. He found out that Kit Williams had spent his childhood near Ampthill, in Befordshire, and thought that he must have buried the hare in a place he knew well, but he still could not see the connection with Katherine of Aragon, until one day he came across two stone crosses in Ampthill Park and learnt that they had been built in her honor in 1773.
Even then his search had not come to an end. It was only after he had spent several nights digging around the cross that he decided to write to Kit Williams to find out if he was wasting his time there. Williams encouraged him to continue, and on February 24th 1982, he found the treasure. It was worth 3000 in the beginning, but the excitement it had caused since its burial made it much more valuable.
The underlined word “them”（paragraph1）refers to .
red herrings B. treasure hunts
C. Henry VIII’s six wives D. readers of Masquerade
33．What is the most important clue in the story to help Ken Roberts find the hare
A. Two stone crosses in Ampthill B. Stevenson’s Treasure Island
C. Katherine of Aragon D. Williams’ hometown
34．The stone crosses in Ampthill were built .
A. to tell about what happened in 1773 B. to show respect for Henry VIII’s first wife
C. to serve as a roadsign in Ampthill Park D. to inform people where the gold hare was
35．What is the subject discussed in the text
A. An exciting historical event B. A modern treasure hunt
C. The attraction of Masquerade D. The importance of logical thinking

Weighing the Options
Making decisions when shopping is often a tough call. Even if you’re satisfied with the first dress you try on, would you go on looking for alternatives, comparing styles and prices, until you literally dropped dead
Psychology researchers have studied how people make decisions and concluded there are two basic styles. “Maximizers” like to take their time and weigh a wide range of options—sometimes every possible one—before choosing. “Satisficers” would rather be fast than thorough.
_____36____ So even if they see what would seem to meet their requirements, they can’t make a decision until after they’ve examined every option to make sure that they’re making the best possible choice. Researchers followed 548 job-seeking college seniors at 11 schools from October through their graduation in June. They found that the maximizers landed better jobs. _____37______
“The maximizer is kicking himself because he can’t examine every option and at some point has to just pick something,” they say. “Maximizers make best decisions and end up feeling bad about them. _____38______”
Satisficers also have high standards, but they are happier than maximizers. Maximizers tend to be more depressed and to report a lower satisfaction with life, his research found.
Faced with so many choices in our lives, we need to learn how not to waste time and energy on our decision-making.
______39_______ For instance, if you’re picking a restaurant for a lunch meeting, first deciding on a certain part of town or type of cuisine can narrow your options.
Once you’ve arrived at a decision, stick with it. _____40______ To limit the number of options you can consider, you can set a time limit for decision-making. Say you are buying a new bag, you could spend an amount of time studying features, price and value—but if you give yourself only five minutes to make a decision, and there are only these bags you can consider, you’ll save time. You’ll be happier with your decision, too.
A. Maximizers are people who want the best.
B. First of all, decrease your range of options.
C. Comparing is often a must when you make a decision.
D. Just accept that no decision is ever completely perfect.
E. Satisficers make good decisions and end up feeling good.
F. The other is to make decisions more accurately at the beginning.
G. Their starting salaries were 20 percent higher but they felt worse about their jobs.

Last summer, my parents sold our minivan(小型货车) and bought a Dodge Dart. They thought it was “necessary” to 41 a smaller vehicle.
This decision affected me greatly because the new car had a manual transmission(手动变速) 42 I only knew how to drive automatic .
But this summer was supposed to be 43 , as it was my first summer with my G2 driver’s 44 . In Ontario, having a G2 means you are able to drive without the supervision（监管）of a(n) 45 .
After the long hours I’d spent learning to drive the car, it felt even 46 to drive it around on my own. I felt a new-found sense of maturity and 47 that I really enjoyed. I would drive everywhere, 48 when I probably didn’t need to.
So, 49 , when my mom asked me to 50 some groceries from the local store I decided to 51 instead of walk. While turning into the open spot in the store’s parking lot , I somehow scratched the car beside me. When I got out to 52 the damage, a bystander ran up warning me to contact the owner of the car I had scratched, or she would tell her husband, who was “a cop.”
Shocked and at a loss for words, I managed to find a piece of paper to write my 53 number on and put it on the 54 car’s window.
I was really 55 when I got home, because not only had I managed to 56 our own new car, I’d also damaged another person’s car.
When the owner called me, she was very aggressive and 57 . Though I hadn’t hit her car on purpose, I finally said it would probably be better if she 58 back and talked to my parents. When it was all settled, the total 59 were around $2,000.
From this matter, I learned that as I got older I would get many new 60 , but they will also come with more responsibility.

Nowadays we can still see some behaviors against public morals. As was often the case, people tend to talk loud in public places annoyed others around. Spitting and littering rubbish can be seen anywhere. Besides, it’s common that the young or middle-aged sit on the bus when the elderly have to stand. Measure must be taken to change this situation.
