    The Oxford Mal, England
    Most prisons are the kind of place you’d be desperate to escape from, not somewhere you’d possibly conceive of escaping to.
    But this former Oxford prison has been converted into a boutique hotel by the fashionable Malmaison chain and offers the kind of luxurious living that former convicts could only have dreamed of.

    The lodge can accommodate two couples and is kitted out with showers, a microwave and a fridge.
    The real attractions are the fish; the lodge is like a goldfish bowl in reverse, where you sit and watch angelfish, parrotfish, barracuda and snappers peering in at you through the window.
    Rates: From US$400
    Das Park Hotel, Austria
    Stay overnight in a concrete sewer pipe on the banks of the River Danube.
    The drainpipes are two meters in diameter and two and a half meters long, with a porthole to look out of, a front door to close and a cozy nest to snuggle into, which includes a low-slung futon, bedside lamp, woolly blanket and light sleeping bag.
    Rates: You pay as much, or as little, as you want.
    Sant` Angelo Luxury Resort, Italy
    “Four-star boutique cave-hotel” is the proud boast of the Sant’Angelo in the city of Matera, which is famous for its sassi-houses dug into the rock.

The rooms have been fashioned from old sassi stables and workshops. There are two restaurants, a bar and an art gallery.

    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（出租）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.
    小题1:
    If you earn ￡5000 from renting a room in one year, the tax you need to pay will be based on ______.
    A．￡800B．￡500C．￡4500D．5000
    小题2:
    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.
    小题3:
    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
    小题4:

    Paperback: 264 pages
    Publisher:. Sams (March 29,2005)
    ISBN: 0672327627
    Product Dimensions: 8.4x5.5x0.6 inches
    OVERVIEW
    This book offers straightforward practical answers when you need fast results. By working through each 10-minute lesson, you'll learn what you need to begin to use the PHP scripting language to make your websites interactive and dynamic.
    REVIEW
    When I first laid eyes on this book and its title, Teach Yourself PHP in 10 minutes, my first thought was that I was going to see this!  So I opened it up and figured I'd look through it for ten minutes and see what would hit me. Well, 10 minutes turned into 20, 20 into 30 and 30 into a valuable resource that sits on my desk.
    Not only are the lessons within brief, but they are very easy to understand, well presented and very easy to understand for the beginner. Each lesson comes with tips to point out shortcuts, cautions to help you avoid common mistakes and notes to additional infomation. This book can be used in two ways, as a reference or as a complete tutorial on PHP basics. That alone is something that is very rare in teaching type books these days.
    Some of the more valuable and informative lessons will take you into the areas of:
    --Strings and variables
    --Processing HTML forms
    --Controlling and filtering data
    --User authentication
    --Cookies and sessions
    --Security practices
    --Configuring PHP and more!!!
    The book is pretty basic for experienced PHP coders, but for new or intermediate users this book is worth more than the small $19.99 CAN suggested price. Although the cover suggests it covers PHP 5.0, the coding found within also applies to PHP 4.X
    CONCLUSION
    This book completely surprised me with its value and does indeed teach you in ten minutes what other books claim to do in 24 hours. Full marks to author Chris Newman for this handy guide.
    小题1:Where can you see this short passage?

    A．To tell us something about a new book.B．To tell us something about PHP.
    C．To make an ad for the book to sell it.D．To tell us how to use the book.
