湖北省荆门市2021年初中英语学业水平适应性考试英语试卷
In a perfect world, everything would be free. Until then, earning discounts (折扣) for doing things you would probably already be doing-like walking to work-is the next best thing.
According to The Daily Dot, a free iOS app called Miles lets you earn points simply by getting up and going somewhere. When you earn enough points, you'll be able to get gift cards and discounts for businesses like Amazon, Starbucks and Whole Foods.
The app is created to encourage eco-friendly travel, so the reward points you get depend on your transport. One mile in a car translates to one point, but a ride in an Uber or Lyft will get you double the points. Public transportation helps you get three points per mile, biking is five points per mile, and walking is 10 points per mile. Flying, on the other hands, will only give you 0.1 point per mile.
The trips will be recorded by the app itself. Of course, users have to allow the app to track their location at all times, which might make some people unhappy. The app's CEO said the information collected from the app wouldn't be shared with others.
How far do you need to travel to get the rewards? Well, if you want to get something like a $5 Starbucks or Amazon gift card, you are supposed to have 2,500 points—that is 250 miles of walking. The app isn't available on Android but it should be coming soon.
