Ⅲ.阅读理解

A

Maybe you've just invented something better than the iPhone or a solar-powered car.You don't want anyone to steal your design.What should you do? Patent (申请专利) it！Patents are the best way to get credit for your work and help others continue advancing in that field.Here's what you need to know.

A patent gives you the right to an invention.The patent protects its owner，which means the invention can't be copied or sold without their agreement.In exchange, the owner must reveal information about the invention.This contributes knowledge that helps other inventors improve on their own research.A patent usually lasts about 20 years.

The first step to getting a patent is the application.The person applying must name the invention, explain its use and describe it clearly.The invention must be practical and contain some new characteristic—something that hasn't been seen or used before.But not everything ‘new’ can be patented.Many countries don't allow patents on things like new concepts, scientific theories, medical procedures or substances already found in nature.

You may not be able to see patents, but they're connected to nearly everything.There are patents on things you use every day, like plastic, medicine and your computer.There are patents on things that are unavailable on the market, too.Apple is well-known for its patents on potential products, such as the “iBike” or the“iKey”．

Of course there are also patents on inventions like this.Take the anti-eating face mask for example.This device locks around your head with a metal cage covering your mouth.You can breathe and speak, but you can't eat!

Although many patented inventions can be failures, there's plenty of room for success.So if you have a cool invention, try to patent it.

文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章的目的是为了告知我们申请专利的好处及如何申请专利，同时又介绍了并非所有新的东西都是专利，并建议我们如果有新的发明，就尝试着去申请专利。

1．Which of the following is NOT true according to the text？ B A．A patent can last for around 20 years. B．Everything new can be patented.

2

C．Your invention is protected after you have applied for a patent. D．Some patents are on the things that we use every day.

2．We can infer that Apple's iBike is B . A．a popular product B．a mere new concept

解析：推理判断题。从文章第四段倒数一、二句“There are patents on things that are unavailable on the market，too.Apple is well-known for its patents on potential products，such as the‘iBike’or the‘iKey’”．可知，苹果的iBike仅仅是一个新的概念而已，在市场上还买不到。故正确答案为B。

3．The underlined word“device” in Paragraph 5 can best be replaced by“ C ”． A．weapon C．equipment

B．medicine D．strength

解析：词义猜测题。从文章倒数第二段第二句“Take the anti-eating face mask for example.”可知，这个单词的意思与设备有关。A项意为“武器”；B项意为“药品”；C项意为“设备”；D项意为“力量”。故正确答案为C。

4．The purpose of writing this passage is to D . A．advertise C．warn

B．persuade D．inform

解析：细节理解题。从文章第一段倒数一、二句“Patents are the best way to get credit for your work and help others continue advancing in that field.Here's what you need to know.”可知，作者写作的目的是为了告知我们申请专利的好处。A项意为“登广告”；B项意为“劝说”；C项意为“警告”；D项意为“通知；告知”。故正确答案为D。
