7.C试题分析:本文是几则关于房主的租房小贴士和一些建议。4.B细节理解题。根据短文thankstothegovernment-backed“rentaroom”program,youwon’thavetopayanytaxonthefirst￡4500youmakeperyear.可知由于政府政策，你挣得前￡4500是不用交税的，也即只要基于￡500交税即可，故选B。5.C细节理解题。根据Ifyouliveinthecapital,rentingaroomoutduringtheOlympicsorotherbigeventscouldbringinmoney.Grashpaddercanadvertiseyourspace可知你可以在Grashpadder上发布租房广告，故选C。6.D细节理解题。根据短文letyouusetheenergyproducedfornothing.以及However,youhavetosigna25-yearagreementwiththesupplier,whichcouldpreventyoufromchangingtheroof.可知你要签订25年的供应契约才能免费使用房间里的能源，故选D。7.C细节理解题。理解全文可知这篇文章主要是写给想要利用租房赚钱的房主的，故选C。考点：考查广告布告类短文阅读【名师点睛】广告布告类阅读解题技巧：阅读这类文章时，也应该在整体把握文章结构的前提下，主要注意细节信息。细节题题干都是相应原文的变形(如同义改写、词性转换等)，因此要找到答案一定要找到题干在原文中的出处，再把原文和选项相比较。做题时，根据所提问题用寻读、跳读的方法可达到事半功倍的效果。同时，在阅读时也要特别注意文中以粗体、大写、下划线等方式加以提示的文字，因为这很有可能是文章的核心或某一部分内容的概括。具体答题策略如下：1、先题后文：先读试题，了解考点；明确目的，快速捕捉，获取信息。2、题干定向：根据题干关键词到文中定位答案范围，按照题目顺序依次而下：问题与材料相同：对号入座；问题与原文相同：同义替换、归纳事实等。如第22小题Wherecanyouputanadvertisementtorentoutaroomduringabigevent？根据题干中的duringabigevent可定位到文中Makemoneyduringspecialevents标题下的一段，阅读后发现你可以在Grashpadder上发布广告信息。注意标题：本文的一些小标题透露了文章的一些细节，主要介绍了屋主可以利用的租房方法，和一些跟租房有关的小建议。21.
