Part 2 Questions 66 – 75 (2.0 points - 0.2/ each)
Read the passage below and choose the best answer to each question.
Most forms of property are concrete and tangible, such as houses, cars, furniture or anything else that is included in one’s possessions Other forms of property can be intangible, and copyright deals
with intangible forms of property Copyright is a legal protection extended to authors of creative
works, for example, books, magazine articles, maps, films, plays, television shows, software, paintings, photographs, music, choreography in dance and all other forms of intellectual or artistic property
Although the purpose of artistic property is usually public use and enjoyment, copyright establishes the ownership of the creator When a person buys a copyrighted magazine, it belongs to this individual as a tangible object However, the authors of the magazine articles own the research and the writing that went into creating the articles The right to make and sell or give away copies of books or articles belongs to the authors, publishers, or other individuals or organizations that hold the copyright To copy an entire book or a part of it, permission must be received from the copyright owner, who will most likely expect to be paid
Copyright law distinguishes between different types of intellectual property Music may be played
by anyone after it is published However, if it is performed for profit, the performers need to pay a
fee, called a royalty A similar principle applies to performances of songs and plays On the other
hand, names, ideas, and book titles are excepted Ideas do not become copyrighted property until they are published in a book, a painting or a musical work Almost all artistic work created before the 20th
century is not copyrighted because it was created before the copyright law was passed
The two common ways of infringing upon the copyright are plagiarism and piracy Plagiarizing
the work of another person means passing it off as one’s own The word plagiarism is derived from the Latin plagiarus, which means “abductor” Piracy may be an act of one person, but, in many cases,
it is a joint effort of several people who reproduce copyrighted material and sell it for profit without paying royalties to the creator Technological innovations have made piracy easy and anyone can duplicate a motion picture on videotape, a computer program, or a book Video cassette recorders can
be used by practically anyone to copy movies and television programs, and copying software has become almost as easy as copying a book Large companies zealously monitor their copyrights for slogans, advertisements, and brand names, protected by a trademark
66. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A.Legal rights of property owners B Legal ownership of creative work
C Examples of copyright piracy D Copying creating work for profit
67 The word “extended” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to
A.explicated B exposed C guaranteed D granted
68. It can be inferred from the passage that copyright law is intended to protect
A.the user’s ability to enjoy an artistic work B the creator’s ability to profit from the work
C paintings and photographs from theft D computer software and videos from being copied
69 The word “principle” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to
Trang 7A.crucial point B cardinal role
70. Which of the following properties is NOT mentioned as protected by copyright?
C printed medium D scientific discoveries
71. It can be inferred from the passage that it is legal if
A.two songs, written by two different composers, have the same melody
B.two books, written by two different authors, have the same titles
C.two drawings, created by two different artists, have the same images
D.two plays, created by two different playwrights, have the same plot and characters
72. With which of the following statements is the author most likely to agree?
A.Teachers are not allowed to make copies of published materials for use by their students
B.Plays written in the 16th century cannot be performed in theaters without permission
C.Singers can publicly sing only the songs for which they wrote the music and the lyrics
D.It is illegal to make photographs when sightseeing or traveling
73 The phrase “infringing upon” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to
A.impinging upon B inducting for C violating D abhorring

A.A law against theft B A law against smoking
