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.What is the author’s attitude towards protecting (保护) intellectual property rights7
| A．He is for it. | B．He is against it. |
| C．He doesn’t care about it. | D．The article doesn’t tell us. |
Which of the following do intellectual property rights not cover?

| C．Names end pictures. | D．Pirated music. |
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.What is the best title for the article?

Years ago a farmer owned land along the Atlantic（大西洋）coast．He put up a notice to want a farmhand．A short man came to see the farmer．"Are you a good farmhand？"The farmer asked him． "Well，I can sleep when the wind blows．"Answered the little man． Although puzzled（迷惑）by this answer，the farmer agreed that he could work on the farm．The little man worked hard around the farm，busy from morning to evening，and the farmer felt satisfied with the man's work．
Then one night the wind blew strongly from the sea．Jumping out of bed，the farmer rushed to the farmhand's sleeping room．He shook the little man and shouted，"Get up!A storm is coming!Tie things down before they are blown away!"
The little man turned over in bed and said firmly（坚定地），"No sir．I told you，I can sleep when the wind blows．" The farmer got so mad that he wanted to kick the farmhand off at once．Instead，he hurried outside to prepare for the storm．To his surprise，he discovered that everything had been tied down．Nothing could be blown away． The farmer then understood what his farmhand meant，so he returned to his bed to also sleep when the wind blew．
When you've prepared everything well for yourself，you have nothing to fear．Can you sleep when the wind blows during your life？

If you live in Shanghai or Bejing，you may see some orange bicycles on streets these days．
These orange bikes are from a company called Mobike．You can order a bike through its app on your phone．When you find the bike，you just scan the QR code（扫二维码）so you can use it．You don't need to return the bike to a station，just park it somewhere．
China was known as"the kingdom of bicycles"around 30years ago． But lately more people choose to drive cars and catch the subway，fewer people choose to ride bicycles．Now，bike rental（租赁）services like Mobike are bringing biking back to people's lives． "In those days，I got the feeling that Chinese people were trying to be modern and push away the past．So they did not want to be linked with bicycles，"said Ines Brunn，a German woman who opened a bike store in Beijing．"But now I believe changes in people's tastes will shape new thinking on bikes．"
Now，online rental services make biking much more fashionable（时髦的），but it's still not easy to ride bikes in Chinese cities．Cars usually take up bicycle lanes（车道）．Bikers have to ride next to cars in car lanes， which can be very dangerous． This is why Beijing will build over 3，200km of new bike lanes．Drivers who park on bike lanes will be punished．Traffic signs will be put on roads to better protect bikers．

In the past time，many classmates often couldn't bring good box meal to school，so did my deskmate（同桌）．His meal was always the black fermented soybean（豆酱）while mine was often beef and chicken， quite different from his．Every time my deskmate would first pick up the hair from his box meal and eat his meal as if nothing had happened．This uncomfortable thing continued all long．
"His mother is so lousy（讨厌的）that even her hair drops in the meal．"My classmates talked about it secretly．I felt that was too dirty． So my impression（印象）on him began to decline（下降）greatly from then on． One day after school，he invited me to visit his home．Though I wanted to refuse him，I didn't do that because it was his first invitation since we were in the same class．
"Mom，I bring my friend home．"Hearing this，his aged mother opened the door and said，"My son's friend comes，let me have a look．" But his mother，who had just walked out of the door，was only touching the door with her hands．I saw that she was blind．I felt so sad without a word．
