    Driving a car at a high speed along a highway seems to be fun. You only need to follow the
    bright traffic signs beside the highway and it will take you where you wish to go.
    But to a London taxi driver, driving is not an easy job. A taxi driver needs to have not only good driving skills but also a good knowledge of the city of London, from the loneliest street to the popular restaurant around. He has to be at the service of all kinds of passengers (乘客) at all times.
    A London taxi driver said the following about his job.
    During the night it is usual for him to stop two or three times for some food. He said, “I never drink when I’m working, otherwise I’d lose my license (驾驶执照).”
    He normally goes home between two and three o’clock in the morning. There are times he has to stay longer and try to make more runs. He said, “That’s the worst thing about working for yourself. If you don’t make money, no one is going to give it to you. ”
    London taxi drivers not only “take” but also “give”. Every summer hundreds of poor children from London go for a day at the sea ― by taxi! There rides are paid by the taxi drivers. At the sea, they are met by the mayor (市长) , and a lunch party is also held for the taxi drivers and the children. After a happy day’s running around the beaches and visiting the market there, the children go home again by taxi, free of charge of course!
    小题1:London taxi drivers try to make more runs sometimes mainly because __________.
    A．they make a living by driving
    B．they prefer to work for themselves
    C．they want to help more passengers
    D．they are used to working deep into the night
    小题2: How do London taxi drivers “give”?
    A．They give the poor children a lunch party at he sea each summer.
    B．They give poor children the chance to meet the maor.
    C．They pay for some poor children’s rides for a day’s tour each summer.
    D．They play with some poor children at the sea for a day each summer.
    小题3:Which of the following words can be used to describe London taxi drivers?

    小题1:A
    小题1:C
    小题1:D
    小题1:C

    小题1:根据常识可推知司机是为了生活，故选A。
    小题1:根据最后一段第三句There rides are paid by the taxi drivers.可知司机免费接送贫穷的孩子，故选C。
    小题1: 通读全文可知，伦敦出租车司机的工作很辛苦，但他们很和蔼，故选D。

They will sometimes ask visitors for information about themselves. The information might be about their families, or where they live. It shouldn't be given away.
    Usually, the people who request personal information like home addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses use the information to do some illegal(违法的) things. This might harm a person's or family's well-being.

    Having Fun "Growing" and "Stealing"?
    Recently，an Internet game has become a new fashion among young office workers and students. People can "farm" on a piece of "land" and "grow"， "sell" or even "steal" "vegetables"，"flowers" and "fruits" on the Net. They can earn some e-money and buy more "seeds"，"pets" and even "houses".
    Joyce interviewed some young people. Here are their opinions.
    Harold：I don’t quite understand why they are so mad about the childish game， Maybe they are just not confident enough to face the real world.
    Allan：I enjoy putting some "bugs" in my friends’ gardens and we’ve become closer because of the game. Having fun together is the most exciting thing about it.
    Laura： You know， people in the city are longing for(渴望) the life in the countryside. It reduces my work pressure(压力)；besides，it gives me the exciting experience of being a "thief".
    Ivy：Well. it’s just a waste of time. Teenagers playing the game spend so many hours on it that they can not focus on(专注于)their study.
    小题1: According to the passage，people can’t _______ things in this game.

    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.
    小题1: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.
    小题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.
    小题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.
    小题4:What is the best title for the article?
    A．Rob a BankB．Copyright Fees
    C．Say No to pirated MusicD．World Intellectual Property Day
