　　With an eye for style and a heart for the environment, 18－year－old Alexis Giger launched a do－it－yourself blog aimed at “reducing your environmental impact fashionably”．

　　The idea was sparked (激发) by the ecology unit in her biology class at Charlotte Latin School last year，she said,

　　which taught her about issues like deforestation and habitat destruction.“I started thinking about what I could do to stop the wastefulness in my immediate community，” the fashion lover said.

　　“The blog, ecouturieracg.wordpress.com, aims to make reusing thrift store (旧 finds or last season's pieces easy and fashionable while cutting down on the resources consumed by garment production，” Alexis said.Through online research, she discovered that a simple cottonT－shirt takes more than 700 gallons of water to make.

　　“It made me realize that the fashion industry consumes huge amounts of natural resources as it relies on producing garments quickly and in large supply—many of the garments are only intended to be worn three or four times，” she said.

　　Alexis had a number of tools to help her get started.Her mom, Kimberly, taught her to sew when she was 5.Her grandmother taught her to crochet (钩边) around the same time.Alexis said she also gained technical knowledge and inspiration from her part－time job at a clothing company that creates theater wardrobes for schools and drama productions.

　　Prior to the blog launch, she spent several months illustrating “recycling” projects by creating photo tutorials.Though Ecouturier hasn't been online long, she's been getting positive feedback．“I've had people come up to me in the hall and say，‘Hey, I saw your blog.I'm working on one of the projects right now, ’” Alexis said.

　　She said she hasn't bought a brand－new piece of clothing since last July, and her thrift store shopping has paid off with finds such as a $5 (31 yuan) dress she wore to homecoming.

　　“Taking an hour from Saturday afternoon to make something for yourself can really have an impact on the environment.A little change every day can really add up，” Alexis said.

　　A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。

　　(2016·南宁市适应性测试)There have always been laws against copying other people's ideas. However, when copying was only limited to copying something by hand, problems were solved easily. The solution was always the destruction or removal of the copy. Nowadays, the rise of the Internet has made the issue of intellectual property (知识产权) more complicated.

　　Almost every bit of information can be cut and pasted (粘贴) with a few clicks of a mouse. Many art forms such as writings, films, and music need new protection to ensure that people do not simply transfer them for free. Online illegal copying has been blamed for a huge reduction in the sales of many records because it is hard to convince people to buy something that they can get for free. Even the ideas behind traditional games, such as Scrabble, have been used without the owners' permission.

　　Old laws have been struggling to keep up. While music companies have been successful in persuading courts that action should be taken against people who illegally download music, the law is difficult to carry out. Furthermore, intellectual property rights vary widely from country to country, so it's up for debate which laws apply. Finally, there is the fact that many people simply do not see the act as theft, since once the work has been digitized there is no clear physical object to steal in the first place.

　　All of these issues mean that companies involved with intellectual property — ideas or easily digitized information —

　　are fighting desperately to get people to pay for the information they use, rather than paying for an object like a CD that they use. While the companies have sometimes been successful, the practical barriers to full protection seem insurmountable.

　　Finally, all that concerned parties can do is hope that their few successes scare off others and try to find new ways of making money.

　　1.Why do writings, films, and music need protection?

　　A.They are very expensive.

　　B.They are impossible to copy.

　　C.It is easy to make CDs, books, and movies.

　　D.They are easily able to be transferred when in digital form.

　　2.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a problem of carrying out intellectual property rights?

　　A.Laws are not the same in all countries.

　　B.People do not see copying information as theft.

　　C.It is very hard to catch people who are breaking the law.

　　D.Internet service providers do not want to cooperate with the police.

　　3.The underlined word “insurmountable” in Paragraph 4 means “________”.

　　A.extremely expensive

　　B.impossible to overcome

　　C.against the law

　　D.hard to prove

　　4.What can be inferred from this passage?

　　A.Music and films will be unnecessary in the future.

　　B.New laws are necessary but difficult to put into practice.

　　C.The Internet is likely to become more important in the future.

　　D.Laws are just a way for greedy companies to control their products.

　　1．解析：选D　细节理解题根据第二段前三句“Almost every bit of information ... something that they can get for free.”可知随着网络的发展著作电影和音乐等很容易通过网络以数字形式供人们免费下载这极大地损害了创作人的合法权益所以它们需要被保护故答案选D2．解析：选D　细节理解题根据第三段中的“the law is difficult to carry out”“intellectual property rights vary widely from country to country”“there is the fact that many people simply do not see the act as theft”和“once the work has been digitized there is no clear physical object to steal in the first place”可知A、B、C三项都是在保护知识产权时所面临的问题D项在文中没有提到故答案选D3．解析：选B　词义猜测题根据第三段和第四段内容可知保护知识产权面临很多障碍尽管有成功案例但是要克服这些全面保护知识产权的实际障碍几乎是不可能的由此可推断出insurmountable意为“难以克服的不能超越的”B项意为“不可能克服的”故答案选B4．解析：选B　推理判断题根据全文可知由于网络的发展知识产权的保护受到严重挑战原有法律已解决不了日益复杂的问题；人们在用法律来维护创作人的权益时遇到了很多障碍使得维权难以真正贯彻下去由此可推断出制定新的知识产权保护法很有必要但是这项法律实施起来仍会很困难故答案选B
