A trademark identifies and distinguishes the products of one business firm from those of another. It may include a word, a sentence, a symbol, a picture

14、, or any combination of these. Trademarks must be attached directly to the product. Many trademarks contain the name of the business. But manufacturers often use some words to describe the qualities of the owner of the product, or make up a word. The spoken part of a trademark is called the brand na

15、me.2. Trademarks provide a simple way for people to determine who is responsible for a particular item. They also help people identify the qualities of the product.3. Service marks also identify goods and services. They do not have to be attached to a product. Companies that provide services to the

16、public, such as transportation companies, use these marks to advertise their services. For example, a blue sign with a bell, the symbol of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company, tells every passerby that a public telephone is availablefor use.4. Laws to protect the rights of the trademark own

17、er were developed in the early 1800's. Most countries now provide for regulation and registration of trademarks. An important protection for trademark rights is federal registration. In 1905, the US Congress passed the first federal law ontrademark registration to be held constitutional.5. A per

18、son wishing to register a trademark submits his application to the United States Government Patent Office. The Patent Office may refuse to register a trademark if it contains (1) immoral, misleading, or scandalous material; (2) the flag, or any other official insignia of the United States, a state,

19、a municipality, or another country; (3) the name, picture, or signature of any living person without his or her written consent; (4) a mark or name that is now in use in the United States, if it might confuse or deceive purchasers.6. If the Government accepts the trademark, it issues a permit. This

20、permit guarantees a person's right to use the trademark for twenty years. It may be renewed every 20 years. If a trademark owner stops using the mark for a period of two years, he loses the right to exclusive use of that mark.SECTION 2 READING COMPREHENSION (40 points).Directions: Read Passages

21、2 and 3 and choose the correct answer. Write the corresponding letter of the answer on your ANSWER SHEET.(20 points,1 point for each)Passage 21. What happens when we look at something? ?Beams of light of different degrees of intensity, reflected from all parts of the object, strike the lens (晶状体) of

22、 the eye. The lens then gathers together the spots of light from these beams and focuses them onto a light-sensitive plate ?the retina (视网膜) ?at the back of a pattern of lights.2. The retina contains millions of minute light-sensitive elements, each of which is separately connected to the brain by a

23、 tiny fibre in the optic nerve. These nerve fibres, working independently, pick out minute details from the image on the retina and turn the small spots of light into nerve impulses (脉冲) of different strengths. They then transmit these impulses to the brain. They do this all the same time.3. All the

24、 details of the image are fed to the brain, and, as we have taught our brain to add them together correctly, we see a clear picture of the object as a whole.4. Television, which means vision at a distance, operates on a similar principle. A television picture is built up in thousands of separate par

25、ts.5. Beams of light reflected from the subject being televised strike the lens of the television camera, which corresponds to the lens of the eye. The camera lens gathers together the spots of light from these beams and focuses an image of the subject onto a plate, the surface of which is coated wi

26、th millions of photo-electric elements sensitive to light.6. The spots of light forming the image on the plate cannot be transmitted as light. So they are temporarily converted by an electronic device into millions of electrical impulses; that is, into charges of electricity.7.These electrical impul

27、ses are then sent through space on a wireless wave to the homes of the viewers. They are picked up by the aerials and conveyed to the receivers ?to the television sets. There, they are finally converted back into the spots of light that make up the picture on the television screen.31. All the rays o

28、f light reflected from objects are of varying intensity.32. The retina at the back of the eyeball is a light-sensitive plate.33. An image of the object is focused on the brain in the form of a pattern of lights.34. The nerve fibres connecting the light-sensitive elements to the brain work independen

29、tly.35. The nerve fibres transmit the small spots of light directly to the brain.36. The lens of the television camera is just like the lens of the eye when beams of light are reflected from the subject being televised.37. A camera lens focuses an image onto the surface of a plate which is covered w

30、ith millions of light-sensitive elements.38. TV station sends pictures to television sets through the spots of light.39. The spots of light forming the image on the plate in a television camera are converted into pictures.40. A television set is a transmitter.31.T32.T33.F34.T35.F36.T37.T38.F39.F40.F

31、. Directions: Read Passages 3 and 4 and choose the correct answer. Blacken the corresponding letter of the answer on your ANSWER SHEET.(20 points,1 point for each)Passage 31. Of all the foods we know, fruit is one of the most healthful. It is also one of the most tasty foods. Almost everyone enjoys

32、fruit. Fruit is grown in almost every part of the world. There are hundreds of different kinds of fruits. And there are thousands of different varieties. In the United States alone, there are several hundred types of apples.2. In general though, there are three separate groups. There are tropical fr

33、uits. These are most important. In this group, we have bananas and pineapples. They are shipped from tropical countries and are eaten all over the world.3. Next come the subtropical fruits. The most important of these are the citrus fruits. Oranges, tangerines, limes, and grapefruit are favorites. O

34、ther fruits in this class are figs, dates, and olives.4. The last group comes from the temperate zone. In this group are pears, apples, grapes, and plums. Many kinds of berries fit this group, too.5. Fruits are very important to the human diet. Besides being tasty, they provide important acids, salt

35、s, and vitamins. Also, they are easy to digest. Nutrition experts say that the more fruit people eat, the healthier they become.6. Down through the centuries fruit has played a part in tales and history. In a Greek myth, Hercules sent Atlas to pick“golden apples”to pay for a crime. Today we believe

36、these golden apples were oranges. During the 1700's, British ships began to carry limes. It was found that sailors who drank the lime juice did not get sick. Since that time, British sailors have been called“limeys.”7. The peach also has an exciting history. It has been a world traveler. Its jou

37、rney began many, many centuries ago. Peaches were first grown in China. From China, traders of long ago carried peach trees to Persia. From there, Alexander Great brought the fruit to Europe. From Europe, Spanish ships carried peaches to the New World.8. Through the years, fruit trees and plants hav

38、e been improved. Today's fruits are bigger. They also taste better. Different kinds of fruits are often being bred. We now have fruit that can travel to all parts of the world and still stay fresh. Even after traveling for some time, these new fruits keep the vitamins and minerals that are so go

39、od for our diet. Fruit will always be prized as a basic food that now can be enjoyed the whole year round.41. Of all the foods we know, fruit is one of the most _.A colorfulB healthfulC deliciousD B and C42. According to paragraphs 1 and 2, which of the following is NOT true?A Most people enjoy eati

40、ng fruit.B Fruit can be grown almost all over the world.C There are tens of thousands of different kinds of fruits.D There are three groups of fruits.43. Pineapples are grown in _ climate.A cold and dryB hot and humidC snowy and wetD mid and dry44. Among the following, _ belong to citrus fruits.A ta

41、ngerinesB pineapples Great brought the fruit to Europe. From Europe, Spanish ships carried peaches to the New World.C grapesD apples45. Strawberries probably belong to _.A tropical fruitsB subtropical fruitsC temperate fruitsD none of the above46. Fruits are popular because they are easy to _.A plan

42、tB digestC serveD taste47. British sailors have been called“limeys”because at one time they_.A drank lime juiceB lived only on limesC refused to ship limesD liked limes better than any other fruits48. This passage does not mention the story about _.A orangesB limesC peachesD bananas49. According to

43、this passage, today's fruits _,A like a lot of rainB need a lot of fertilizerC remain the same in size and tasteD can stay fresh for a long time50. In Paragraph 8, the word“prized”is closest in meaning to _.A awardedB pickedC valued highlyD welcomed.Directions: Passage 4 is taken from the TEXTBO

44、OK. Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer. Write the corresponding letter of the answer on your ANSWER SHEET.(10 points,1 point for each)Passage 41. In science, a theory is a reasonable explanation of observed events that are related. A theory often involves an imaginary model that h

45、elps scientists envision the way an observed event could be produced. A good example of this is found in the kinetic molecular theory, in which gases are pictured as being made up of many small particles that are in constant motion.2. A useful theory, in addition to explaining past observations, hel

46、ps to predict events that have not as yet been observed. After a theory has been publicized, scientists design experiments to test the theory. If observations confirm the scientists' predictions, theory is supported. If observations do not confirm the predictions, the scientists must search furt

47、her. There may be a fault in the experiment, or the theory may have to be revised or rejected.3. Science involves imagination and creative thinking as well as collecting information and performing experiments. Facts by themselves are not science. As the mathematician Jules Henry Poincare said:“Scien

48、ce is built with facts just as a house is built with bricks, but a collection of facts cannot be called science any more than a pile of bricks can be called a house.”4. Most scientists start an investigation by finding out what other scientists have learned about a particular problem. After known fa

49、cts have been gathered, scientist comes to the part of the investigation that requires considerable imagination. Possible solutions to the problem are formulated. These possible solutions are called hypotheses.5. In a way, any hypothesis is a leap into the unknown. It extends the scientist's thi

50、nking beyond the known facts. The scientist plans experiments, performs calculations, and makes observations to test hypotheses. For without hypotheses, further investigation lacks purpose and direction. When hypotheses are confirmed, they are incorporated into theories.51. The word“related”in Parag

51、raph 1 is closest in meaning to _.A connectedB describedC completedD identified52. The word“this”in Paragraph 1 refers to _.A a good exampleB an imaginary modelC the kinetic molecular theoryD an observed event53. What is NOT true about a theory?A A useful theory can explain past observations.B A use

52、ful theory helps to make predictions.C A theory is the truth that does not need to be tested.D A theory may have to be revised or rejected sometimes.54. The word“supported”in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _.A finishedB adjustedC investigatedD upheld55. Science involves _.A imagination and cre

53、ative thinkingB collecting informationC performing experimentsD all of the above56. The key point of the quotation from Jules Henry Pincare is that _,A facts are the most important thingsB building a house is like performing experimentsC science is more than a collection of factsD a pile of bricks c

54、an not be called a house57. In Paragraph 4, the author implies that imagination is most important to scientists when they _.A evaluate previous work on a problemB formulate possible solutions to a problemC gather known factsD close an investigation58. Hypotheses are _.A known factsB investigationsC

55、imaginationsD possible solutions59. In Paragraph 5, the author refers to a hypothesis as“a leap into the unknown” in order to show that hypotheses _.A go beyond available factsB are sometimes ill-conceivedC can lead to dangerous resultsD require efforts to formulate60. In Paragraph 5, by saying“when

56、 hypotheses are confirmed, they are incorporated into theories”, the author means that _.A when hypotheses are tested, they become a part of known theoriesB when hypotheses are proved to be correct, they become theoriesC when observations are tested, hypotheses are connected with theoriesD when experiments are proved to be correct, hypotheses are united with theories.
