Ⅳ.阅读理解
Four American college students learned last week that free music downloads can carry a hidden price tag—US $ 12,000 to $ 17,500，to be exact.
Major record companies accused the students of fueling music piracy (盗版) by running
file-sharing
networks
on
campus
allowing
hundreds
of
songs
to be downloaded for free.
Last Thursday，the four promised not to violate the companies’copyrights.Although they did not admit any wrongdoing，they each agreed to pay thousands of dollars to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA)．
“I don’t believe that I did anything wrong，” said Daniel Peng at Princeton University，one of the four.“I hope that for the sake of artists，the larger issues can soon be resolved.” None appears to have made any money off the file－sharing systems they operated，which were confined to their campus’s computer networks.
The payments mark the first time record companies have recovered money from individuals in the US accused of piracy on file－sharing networks.This may be a sign of things to come，as the industry starts taking its battle against online piracy directly to users.
Many record－company executives blame the long slump in CD sales on file－sharing networks，which let users copy songs from each other’s computers for free.
Matt Oppenheim，senior vice president of business and legal affairs for the RIAA，said the settlements，although well below what the companies could have asked for，were “the right amount” given the situation.
He also noted that since the four lawsuits were filed，at least 18 campus file－sharing networks have been taken down by their operators.
41．What does “a hidden price tag” (Paragraph 1) mean?
A．Record companies intentionally hide the high price of the music.
B．It happens that the music price tag isn’t obvious.
C．One has to pay for having downloaded music freely at last.
D．One has to pay for the music in the future even if it’s allowed to be downloaded freely now.
42．Which of the following is true?
A．The four students planned to violate the company’s copyright.
B．They realized they had done a wrong thing.
C．They refused to pay money to RIAA.
D．They didn’t make any money on file－sharing networks.
43．What’s the probable meaning of “slump” (Paragraph 6)?
A．Decline.
B．Increase.
C．Keeping the same.
D．Jump.
44．What can we conclude from Paragraph 6?
A．Slump in CD sales is caused by the fact that people can copy songs free of charge on file－sharing networks.
B．Many record－company executives should bear the blame for long slump in CD sales.
C．People have no desire to buy any CD.
D．Nowadays CDs are not as popular as before.
45．What’s the main idea of the whole passage?
A．The students should be responsible for their behavior.
B．It’s too late for record companies to protect their rights.
C．Record companies have taken action to protect their copyrights by accusing individuals of piracy on file－sharing networks.
D．Some record companies wanted to earn money by accusing people of pirating music.

the expense of somebody“在损害某人的情况下把某人推出来；在损害朋友的前提下提高自己”，是固定的表达形式。
