Taking the dog to the beach on a hot summer's day is a great way to relax. But not all beaches are dog friendly. So if you're looking to take your dog to the coast this summer, here's a few of the country's most dog-friendly beaches.
Sunshine Beach
Where: Noosa, Queensland
Only a 10-minute drive from Noosa, Sunshine Beach also weles dogs with open paws. Once known as Golden Beach, its long white beaches make it a paradise for anyone who loves fishing, boating, surfing or just relaxing on the beach with family and friends.
Restrictions (限定): Dogs can freely explore the shoreline from Noosa National Park to the path leading from Seaview Terrace.
Tallow Beach
Where: Byron Bay, New South Wales
With white sand that stretches (延伸) for miles, and clean, clear waters washing its shores, Byron certainly doesn't want for beautiful beaches — and Tallow Beach is no exception. This seven-kilometer-long beach stretches all the way to Broken Head Reserve.
Restrictions: The beach's dog-friendly area starts near Jarman Street and stretches north to the outside of Arakwal National Park.
Muirs Beach
Where: Coles Bay, Tasmania
One of the few beaches that falls outside of Freycinet National Park, Muirs, is a great family beach that weles dogs, too. Compared to famous sheltered beaches of Freycinet, it is more open to the waves from the Tasman Sea, making it ideal for windsurfing. The beach itself is very long, so there is plenty of space to let your dog run free.
Restrictions: Dog owners must respect the environment and use the poop bags provided at the entrance to the beach to get rid of any dog waste.Fines apply (运用).
Yorkeys Knob Beach
Where: Queensland
Located just 15 minutes from Cairns, Yorkeys Knob Beach is a great spot to relax with your dog. Named after a local fisherman called Yorkey who lived on the rocky hill (“knob”), this wonderful little beach is one of the best-kept secrets in Tropical North Queensland. It is ideal for swimming and snorkelling in the summer season.
Restrictions: The southern end of the beach is the dog off-chain end where your dog is allowed to run free; dogs must be on a chain in all other areas of the beach.

(答案→)D
解析：本文介绍了几处沙滩，各自的功能和注意事项。
【小题1】推理判断题 句中“no exception”的意思是“也不例外”，可知Tallow Beach 是Byron Bay一处很优美的海滩。
【小题2】细节理解题 此段最后表明“Fines apply (运用). ”意味着要是不遵守规定，要进行罚款。
【小题3】细节理解题 根据文章第一段说明可知并非所有的狗都可以带到海滩上，要是带狗的话要去指定的区域，所有A项错误，选D；文中没提到Tallow Beach的命名，所有B项错误；根据最后一个表格中“It is ideal for swimming and snorkelling in the summer season”可知这里并不是风帆冲浪的好地方。所以C项错误。
