26、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 Roommateeasy.

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.

27、Everyone knows that the media can be and is controlled. Everything that you read on the Internet may not always be true! People have constantly been complaining about lies in the media. So how can we be smart online? Here are some tips and tools:

Check the domain names.

Many fake news stories use similar addresses of web pages and domain names. However, a legal domain name usually ends with a ‘.com’, ‘.net’, or ‘.cn’. They are unique. One company only has one domain name.

Visit a fact-checking website.

There are many reliable ones such as FactCheck.org, International Fact-Checking Network (IFCN), or Snopes. com. Be your own Sherlock Holmes and feel more confident about telling fact from fiction. Check that the article contains references and links to other news stories, articles and authors. Good news stories are supported by evidence, dates and other data.

Pay attention to quality and timeliness.

Are there noticeable grammatical errors? Know this—honorable sources have high proofreading and grammatical standards! Is the story current or recycled? Make sure an older story has not been taken out of context.

Remember, do not believe everything you see, read or hear about your favorite idols. False news travels faster online than real news. Do not decide your opinions and views because of one article you have read or one pictures you have seen. Next time you read an article, hear an opinion, or see a picture, consider the other side of the story. Ask. Think. Check.

B．Negative.

D．Supportive.

28、When I first began running in high school on the track team, it made sense to carefully clock every mile and push myself to race for personal bests. But as I changed from running for sport to running for amusement as an adult, I found that tracking my workouts often just ended with frustration. And it wasn’t until my watch battery died several years ago that I first experienced the sense of calm that came with running for the pure joy of it. I never replaced the watch battery, and that might not be a bad thing for my fitness goals.

This is the idea of unplugged (不插电的) running, which is gaining steam in the fitness community. And recent research has shown that getting rid of your running watch, especially if it’s a smartwatch or fitness tracker, could actually improve your workout — or at least your enjoyment of running.

“People used to have an interest in their sport and get enjoyment out of the sport, but now that’s switching to the data,” said Eoin Whelan, a senior lecturer at the National University of Ireland Galway. “They will compare themselves to people who are better than them, who are running faster or running longer. And in the end we know that makes them feel bad. ”

Whelan also noted that people who are very dependent on smart watches or fitness trackers are more likely to skip their workouts if the batteries on their tracking devices are dead.

In addition, there is evidence that running watch-free is beneficial for more than just the casual jogger. Some professionals also have had success with leaving their watches at home. Welsh runner Steve Jones famously set a world record at the 1984 Chicago Marathon without wearing a watch. More recently, Olympic marathoner Trevor Hofbauer made headlines for winning the 2019 Canadian Marathon Championships without a watch.

“If you have too much information being fed to you in real time, it can kind of get in your head,” Hofbauer said. “For me, the simpler, the better.”

【1】What happened to the author when his running watch didn’t work?

A．He lost the desire to keep running every day.

B．He experienced running as a really fun activity.

C．He was at a loss how to replace the watch battery.

D．He had great difficulty achieving his fitness goals.

【2】What does Eoin Whelan say about fitness tracking watches?

A．They can enrich the wearers’ social life.

B．The data provided by them is unreliable.

C．The way people use them is proper.

D．They can lead to harmful consequences.

【3】Why does the author mention Trevor Hofbauer in paragraph 5?

A．To show the popularity of running watch-free.

B．To encourage people to become professional runners.

C．To prove the positive effects of running watch-free.

D．To present professionals’ views on running watch-free.

【4】What is the main idea of the text?

A．It’s time to take off your running watch.

B．Unplugged running actually has two sides.

C．Comparing with others should be avoided.

D．Racing for personal bests requires simplicity.

29、Metaverse (元宇宙)

You’ve probably started to hear this word being thrown around lately. If you’re feeling lost, you’re in the right place. Here, we’ll try to answer some big questions from Microsoft’s point of view. What is a metaverse? Does it already exist? 【1】 Let’s dig in.

Simply put, a metaverse is a digital space inhabited by digital representations of people, places and things. Think of it like a new version, or maybe a new vision, of the Internet. 【2】 Now we can actually go into that place to communicate, share, and work with others. It’s an Internet that you can actually interact with—like we do in the physical world.

And it’s not just a vision anymore. Right now, you can go to a concert and experience a show with other real people inside a video game. 【3】 Those are metaverses. And the future is already here!

【4】 “But my digital self is not my physical self.” Well that is technically true. But Microsoft is working to help you better represent your whole self in the digital space, while also ensuring that you can bring your humanity and your agency over with that representation.

If the past few years have taught us anything, it’s that we need flexibility. The world has never been more connected, but lately, we’ve often needed to distance ourselves physically. The closer we can reflect our physical selves in the digital world, the more of these barriers we can break down. Teammates can join meetings from anywhere. Real-time translation allows people from diverse cultures to collaborate in real-time. 【5】 The metaverse has the ability to take us beyond the barriers and limitations of the physical world.

A．And are you already in it?

B．Have you been lost in a metaverse?

C．However, there’s some doubt about them.

D．Many people talk about the Internet as a place.

E．You can walk a factory floor from your own home.

F．There are good reasons to take the metaverse seriously.

G．This is what takes this from a cool idea to a critical one.

30、I seldom cooked before the isolation (隔离). I thought little of cooking either. But in troubled times I’ve been _________ to cook every day and thus _________ my feelings about it.

First, I’ve realized how the _________ of cooking goes beyond food itself. We exchange recipes and _________ cooking experiences in the group chat of our community. There’s always a shared _________ when we help each other and cook a dish successfully. In other words, we are _________ to each other during the lockdown.

However, the deeper change came from’ ’my understanding of cooking. When I tried to bake biscuits, what started out as a simple thing _________ a three-hour’ struggle, from preparing ingredients to putting the finishing touch on the biscuits. And the dough! A heavy hand or wrong timing can _________ its failure. All these remind me I was so _________ before, taking for granted (认为理所当然) the effort, creativity and skills which cooking routine meals __________. Cooking __________ is a fun and novel experience, but cook every day and you __________ the importance of organization, preparation and efficiency.

I’ve recently learned nine different countries __________ our dinner ingredients. So we also need to appreciate the __________made by so many people across the world! It’s their work that helps to offer us nutritious food.

Now I’m grateful for everything prepared for dinner. To __________ is an exercise in patience, commitment and creativity.

31、根据课文内容，在空白处填入所缺的单词

Certainly, in many ways this seems to be true.

For example, America’s most popular Chinese dish is General Tso’s chicken, which 【3】of fried chicken covered in a sweet sauce, flavoured with hot red 【4】.
