Passage 4
解题思路
1.[L]本句主语是Intellectual property(知识产权),前一句是一般现在时,故此处需填入第二人称单数形式的谓语动词。主语与空格后的creative thinking(创造性思维)是结果和原因的关系。results与from构成固定搭 配,表示源于,语句通顺。retrieve sth. from表示从取回/找回某物,填入空格后语义不通。
2.[C]此处需填人名词、形容词或分词,修饰compensation(补偿)。本句解释了 misappropriation(盗用)的概念,即没有给予他人补偿就使用别人的知识产权,故填入due应付的。
3.[E]此处需填入if条件句的谓语动词,因主语是Office,故该动词为第三人称单数。本句意为:如果美国专利局专利权,就确认了该知识产权是唯一的。grants与a patent搭配,指授予专利权,符合语义逻辑。
4.[N]此处需填人名词,作without的宾语。这里讲专利权所要防止的事情,Permission与without the owners搭配,表示未经专利持有者许可,其他任何人不得制造、使用或出售该项发明创造,符合句意。
5.[K]此处需填入与copy, display和perform并列的动词原形。distribute分发,发行与复制、展示及演示作品均属版权所有者的专有权,故正确。
6.[D]空格前后分别是系动词和表语,句子的主要成分完整,故此处需填人副词。本句说明版权的期限,typically通常符合语义,表明期限通常是作者的寿命再加上额外的70年。
7. [H]此处需填入动词原形,与identify并列充当that定语从句的谓语。动词库中distinguish符合句意,distinguish... from表示有别于,区别于,与该句similar语义相对,说明注册商标是把产品和别人的类似商品 区分的文字、名称或符号。
8.[B]此处需填人形容词或分词,修饰word, name, or symbol。identical同一的,同样的与or后面的similar相呼应,符合语义逻辑,表示注册商标防止他人使用相同或者相类似的文字、名称或符号。
9.[G]空格后的of表明此处需填入名词。popularity声望和recognition(认可,公认)并列,符合语义逻辑,指利用该品牌的知名度和声望。
10.[J]空格所在句子缺少谓语,根据空格前的be确定此处需填人过去分词,构成被动语态。renewed延长期限与后文additional ten-year periods(额外10年的期限)呼应,符合文意。
