2、 Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes) Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions attached to the passage.

IP ri

4、ghts play an important role in the economic prosperity of a country and serve as a motivating force for creative individuals to share their genius with society. Like real and personal property rights protect ones ownership interest in tangible(有形的 )objects, such as land and automobiles, IP rights pr

5、otect ones ownership interest in intangible objects, such as the idea behind an invention, the music score for a Broadway play and the name or logo used to brand a product. Without enforcement of these rights in the law, it would be difficult for society to prosper and grow. In this article, you wil

6、l learn what intellectual property rights are and the differences between its various forms. General Introduction When most people think of intellectual property rights, patents, trademarks and copyrights come to mind. This core set of IP rights reward and protect the creative works of inventors, au

7、thors, owners and sellers of goods and services in the marketplace. While the legal principles that underlie each of these rights are distinct, they each share a common set of principles. An award of patent, trademark or copyright protection requires a delicate balance between the interests of the i

8、nventor or author and the interest of society as a whole. This balance is very much like the tradeoff(折衷 ) required by zoning laws, which attempt to protect the ownership interest and exclusive right to use that a land owner has with societys interest in the limited use of the owners land for societ

9、ys greater good, Public utility easements and right of ways are examples of this balance. The grant of a patent on an important invention of a lifesaving drug represents a similar set of tradeoffs. Is it fair to the inventor to allow society free access to the patented drug? Is it fair to society to

10、 be denied access for its greater good? It is the role of intellectual Property law to harmonize these seemingly conflicting interests, Intellectual property rights also foster a competitive marketplace. They do so by encouraging disclosure of innovation through protecting the fruits of that innovat

11、ion for a period of time. Disclosure allows others to build and improve upon prior innovation so that the state of the art continues to evolve and develop. Without the benefits provided by intellectual property protection, the market place would not operate as effectively. Imagine what the world wou

12、ld be like if every competitor had to continuously “reinvent the wheel“ rather than being able to refine and improve upon the works of others. Finally, intellectual property rights are regional in nature and the conditions of their grant and enforceability are governed by the laws of each jurisdicti

13、on(权限 ). A U.S. patent can be only granted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the United States. A trademark can only be registered and enforced in Canada in accordance with the laws of Canada, and a copyright can only be registered and enforced in Mexico in accordance with its laws. While

14、there is a desire to be somewhat uniform and consistent, countries have different approaches to intellectual property rights protection. Variations in the procedure for obtaining IP rights account for a large percentage of these difference, rather than the differences in the substantive(永久的 ) rights

15、 granted in each country. The words “patent“ and “trademark“ are often used interchangeably. Many times, we hear that a patent is used to protect a logo and that a trademark is used to protect an invention, and vice versa. While patents and trademarks may be associated with the same product, the two

16、 words have very different meanings and refer to very different forms of intellectual property rights. They can seldom be used interchangeably, as the underlying rights that each protects is quite different in nature. What Is a Patent? In general, a patent is used to protect the intellectual propert

17、y rights associated with the design of a product or process. U.S. patents are issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and are enforceable only within the U.S., and its possession. A U.S. patent has no effect outside of the U.S. A patent gives the patent owner the “exclusive right“ to

18、 stop others from making, using, selling or offering for sale the product, or process of making the product, that is described by the patent claims. It is important to note that a patent does not give the patent owner the right to exploit the patented invention himself. The patent owner has only the

19、 “exclusive right“ to stop others from doing so. In other words, just because you obtain a patent on your product does not mean that you can actually use the product. You may be blocked by an earlier patent owner who exercises the “exclusive right“ grained to him under his patent. This is an importa

20、nt distinction and the following example will help to explain it. Suppose that the invention covered by your patent is a chair with four legs, a seat, a back and a pair of rockers a rocking chair. Under your patent, you have the exclusive right to stop others from making, using, selling or offering

21、for sale your patented rocking chair. Lets assume, however, that the rockers on your rocking chair are unique and are covered by an earlier patent to someone else. The rocker patent owner has the exclusive right under his patent to stop others(including you) from using his patented rockers. Your use

22、 of the patented rockers on your rocking chair would constitute infringement(侵权 ) of the rocker patent. So while you received a patent for your rocking chair, you will not be able to actually make, use, sell or offer for sale the chair without first obtaining permission from the rocker patent owner.

23、 The rocker patent owner is not required to give you permission, however, and can keep your rocking chair off of the market if he chooses to do so. It might make better sense, of course, for the rocker patent owner to participate in your success by giving his permission in exchange for a licensing f

24、ee. The term for a patent is 20 years from the filing date of the patent application from which lead to the patent. What Are Trademarks? Like patents, trademark registrations in the U.S. are issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. While a patent protects a product from unauthorized

25、copying through the patent owners exclusive right to stop others from making, using, selling or offering for sale the patented product, a trademark addresses the need for product identification, or branding, among consumers of the product. Thus, a trademark has nothing to do with preventing a produc

26、t from being copied. That is the role of a patent. The United States Patent and Trademark Office defines a trademark as “any word, name, symbol, or device, or any combination, used, or intended to be used, in commerce to identify and distinguish the goods of one manufacturer or seller from goods man

27、ufactured or sold by others, and to indicate the source of the goods. In short, a trademark is a brand name.“ What Is a Copyright? A copyright protects the expression of an idea. Unlike a patent which protects the idea itself, the copyright protects only the expression. The idea of the chair with fo

28、ur legs discussed above can be protected by a patent. The expression of that idea through drawings, pictures and words can be protected by a copyright. In order to qualify for copyright protection, a work must be original to the author. To be original, the work: must have been independently created

29、by the author rather than being copied from other work(s) and, must have at least a minimal degree of creativity. If these two conditions are not met, the work will not qualify as being original and is not entitled to copyright protection. However, a work still qualifies for copyright protection eve

30、n if it includes non-original elements. For example, ii an author rearranges non-original elements in an original way, the compilation will be considered to be original and qualify for copyright protection. Depending on when the work was created, the period of copyright protection begins when the wo

31、rk is created and terminates 70 years after the death of the author. 2 Intellectual property rights can promote creative individuals willingness to share their talent with society. （ A） Y （ B） N （ C） NG 3 An award of any IP rights should consider the balance between the creators interest and that of

33、 the design or process of a product by giving the patent owner_. 7 You get a patent doesnt mean you can use the product because you may be prevented by_. 8 Not preventing a product from being copied makes a trademark differ from a_. 9 A trademark is generally used to identify and distinguish goods o

34、f different manufacturers and show _ of certain goods. 10 A copyright protects the expression of an idea through_ that is original to the author. 11 A work containing non-original elements is still qualified for copyright protection if these elements are rearranged in_.
