     You wouldn't steal a car. You would never rob (抢劫) a bank or pick someone's pocket. But you may
be another kind of thief.
     If you have ever bought a disc for 15 yuan or less, then you have helped to rob artists or musicians of
their intellectual properly rights (知识产权).
     Last Thursday was World Intellectual Property Day. Activities to tell people about intellectual property
rights were held around the country.
     Intellectual property includes inventions, literary (文学的) and artistic works, names, and pictures. They
are of little value (价值) if they are not read, seen and used.
     While the cost of copying discs is very small, authors, singers and actors have to spend a lot of money
and time making a new product. That's why they have the right to make money from their work.
     So buying pirated (盗版的) music of Jay Chou and Jolin Tsai is like stealing from them, paying them no
respect for their hard work.
     If Jay Chou cannot make money from his work, he may not make anything else. But those who make
pirated goods are becoming rich without doing any hard work.
     The authors should ask for a fair price for their work. Earlier this year there was much talk about how
much KTV clubs should pay the music companies for using their songs.
     The copyright fee (版权费) also should be fair to the users. That's good for the music's popularity and
society as well.

1. What is the author's attitude towards protecting (保护) intellectual property rights?
A. He is for it. B. He is against it.
C. He doesn't care about it.
D. The article doesn't tell us.
2. Which of the following do intellectual property rights not cover?
A. Inventions.
B. Literary and artistic works.
C. Names end pictures.
D. Pirated music.
3. According to the article, which of the following is true?
A. Authors should ask for a high price for their work.
B. The copyright fee should ha fair to users.
C. Authors, singers and actors have no right to make money from their work.
D. Buying pirated music by Jay Chou is very good.
4. What is the best title for the article?
A. Rob a Bank
B. Copyright Fees
C. Say No to pirated Music
D. World Intellectual Property Day

in it.   The sea water came in,  of course,  and the boat soon sank (沉没).  Hr,  these people had another
small boat-a lifeboat,  and they all got into that.  They lived and hoped for many days.  They ate and
slept, and they always hoped.  At last a ship found them.

     Have you ever noticed background music? You can listen to it everywhere, restaurants, airports,
supermarkets, department stores… Background music is supposed to influence (影响) your attitudes
(态度) and mood (心情).
     Companies pay millions of dollars every year for background music. It's supposed to make you feel
better about yourself and the people around you. Factories use it a lot. It makes the workers happy and
work better. It is said (据说) that in a factory, music can increase the production by 4.5 percent.
Workers do not easily get tired if they listen to music all day. A worker in San Francisco said:" If the
music stops, somebody always runs to the telephone to complain about it. "Background music was
started during World War II when some factories had their own orchestras to keep workers happy and
calm . Now, of course, the music is piped in (以电讯设备传送) by a machine and different kinds of
music are played at different time in a day. For example, the music they play are faster at 10 than 8,
because workers are usually slower then.
     It's also very interesting that fast music is played in restaurants where hamburger is sold. Before
playing fast music, customers spent 22 minutes eating hamburgers. When they started playing fast music,
they found that a customer spent only 17 minutes eating! So they have more people coming in and out to
buy hamburgers. It's good for business. You can see why music has become so popular. In Los Angeles
(洛杉矶), for example, 30 different companies are selling background music services.
     The Xerox Corporation (静电复印公司) in Rochester, N．Y．(纽约州的罗切斯特市), spends
more than $80,000 a year for background music. Prison warders (狱警) use it. Farmers also use it to
keep their cattle calm. It's said that background music even influence plants.
