Most forms of property are concrete and tangible, such as houses, cars, furniture or anything
else that is included in one’s possessions. Other forms of property can be intangible, and copyright
deals with intangible forms of property. Copyright is a legal protection extended to authors of
creative works, for example books magazine articles, maps, films, plays, television shows, software,
paintings, photographs, music, choreography in dance and all other forms of intellectual or artistic
property.
Although the purpose of artistic property is usually public use and enjoyment, copyright
establishes the ownership of the creator. When a person buys a copyrighted magazine, it belongs
to this individual as a tangible object. However, the authors of the magazine articles own the
research and the writing that went into creating the articles. The right to make and sell or give
away copies of books or articles belongs to the authors, publishers, or other individuals or
organizations that hold the copyright. To copy an entire book or a part of it, permission must be
received from the copyright owner, who will most likely expect to be paid.
Copyright law distinguishes between different types of intellectual property. Music may be
played by anyone after it is published. However, if it is performed for profit, the performers need to
pay a fee called a royalty. A similar principle applies to performances of songs and plays. On the
other hand, names, ideas and book titles are excepted. Ideas do not become copyrighted property
until they are published in a book a painting or a musical work. Almost all artistic work created
before the 20th century is not copyrighted because it was created before the copyright law was
passed.
The two common ways of infringing upon the copyright are plagiarism and piracy.
Plagiarizing the work of another person means passing it off as one’s own. The word plagiarism is
derived from the Latin plaglarus, which means “abductor”. Piracy may be an act of one person, but,
in many cases, it is a joint effort of several people who reproduce copyrighted material and sell it
for profit without paying royalties to the creator. Technological innovations have made piracy easy
and anyone can duplicate a motion picture on videotape a computer program, or a book. Video
cassette recorders can be used by practically anyone to copy movies and television programs, and
copying software has become almost as easy as copying a book. Large companies zealously
monitor their copyrights for slogans, advertisements, and brand names, protected by a trademark

B. two books, written by two different authors, have the same titles
C. two drawings, created by two different artists, have the same images

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions.
Cooperation is the common endeavor of two or more people to perform a task or reach a
jointly cherished goal. Like competition and conflict, there are different forms of cooperation,
based on group organization and attitudes.
In the first form, known as primary cooperation, group and individual fuse. The group
contains nearly all of each individual’s life. The rewards of the group’s work are shared with each
member. There is an interlocking identity of individual, group and task performed. Means and
goals become one, for cooperation itself is valued.
While primary cooperation is most often characteristic of preliterate societies, secondary
cooperation is characteristic of many modem societies. In secondary cooperation, individuals devote
only part of their lives to the group. Cooperation itself is not a value. Most members of the group feel
loyalty, but the welfare of the group is not the first consideration. Members perform tasks so that they
can separately enjoy the fruits of their cooperation in the form of salary prestige, or power. Business
offices and professional athletic teams are examples of secondary cooperation.
In the third type called tertiary cooperation or accommodation, latent conflict underlies the
shared work. The attitudes of the cooperating parties are purely opportunistic: the organization is
loose and fragile. Accommodation involves common means to achieve antagonistic goals: it breaks
down when the common means cease to aid each party in reaching its goals. This is not, strictly
speaking cooperation at all, and hence the somewhat contradictory term antagonistic cooperation is
sometimes used for this relationship.
Question 34. What is the author’s main purpose in the first paragraph of the passage?
A. To urge readers to cooperate more often
B. To offer a brief definition of
cooperation
C. To explain how cooperation differs from competition and conflict
D. To show the importance of group organization and attitudes

A. Students form a study group so that all of them can improve their grades
B. Members of a farming community share work and the food that they grow
C. Two rival political parties temporarily work together to defeat a third party


D. A new business attempts to take customers away from an established company
Question 37. Which of the following is NOT given as a name for the third type of cooperation?

Stories about how people somehow know when they are being watched have been going
around for years However, few attempts have been made to investigate the phenomenon scientifically.
Now, with the completion of the largest ever study of the so- called staring effect, there is impressive
evidence that this is a recognizable and genuine sixth sense. The study involved hundreds of children.
For the experiments, they sat with their eyes (41)_________ so they could not see, and with their backs
to other children, who were told to either stare at them or look away. Time and time again the results
showed that the children who could not see were able to tell when they were being stared at. In a total
of more than 18, 000 trials (42)_________ worldwide, the children correctly sensed when they were
being watched almost 70% of the time. The experiment was repeated with the added precaution of
putting the children who were being watched outside the room, (43)_________ from the starters by the
windows. This was done just in case there was some pretending going on with the children telling
each other whether they were looking or not. This (44)_________ the possibility of sounds being
transmitted between the children. The results though less impressive, were more or less the same. Dr.
Sheldrake, the biologist who designed the study, believesthat the result are convincing enough to
find out through further experiments precisely how the staring effect might actually (45)_________.
