Over the past decade, thousands of patents have seen granted for what are called business methods. Amazon.com received one for its “one-click” online payment system. Merrill Lynch got legal protection for an asset allocation strategy. One inventor patented a technique for lying a box.
Now the nation’s top patent court appears completely-property lawyers abuzz the
Curbs on business-method claims would be a dramatic about-face, because it was the federal circuit itself that introduced such patents with is 1998 decision in the so-called state Street Bank case, approving a patent on a way of pooling mutual-fund assets. That ruling produced an explosion in business-method patent filings, initially by emerging internet companies trying to stake out exclusive pinhts to specific types of online transactions. Later, move established companies raced to add such patents to their files, if only as a defensive move against rivals that might bent them to the punch. In 2005, IBM noted in a court filing that it had been issued more than 300 business-method patents despite the fact that it questioned the legal basis for granting them. Similarly, some Wall Street investment films armed themselves with patents for financial products, even as they took positions in court cases opposing the practice.
The Bilski case involves a claimed patent on a method for hedging risk in the energy market. The Federal circuit issued an unusual order stating that the case would be heard by all 12 of the court’s judges, rather than a typical panel of three and that one issue it wants to evaluate is weather it should “reconsider” its state street Bank ruling.
The Federal Circuit’s action comes in the wake of a series of recent decisions by the supreme Count that has narrowed the scope of protections for patent holders. Last April, for example the justices signaled that too many patents were being upheld for “inventions” that are obvious. The judges on the Federal circuit are “reacting to the anti_patent trend at the supreme court”, says Harole C.wegner, a partend attorney and professor at aeorge

In his book The Tipping Point, Malcolm aladuell alques that social epidemics are dliven in large part by the acting of a tiny minority of special individuals, often called influentials, who are unusually informed, persuasive, or we connect. The idea is intuitively compelling, but it doesn’t explain how ideas actually spread.
The supposed importance of influentials derives from a plansible sounding but largely untested theory called the “tow-step flow of communication”. Information allows from the media to the influentials and from them to everyone else Marketers have embraced the two-step flow because it suggests that if they can just find and influence the influentials, those select people will do most of the work for them. The theory also seems to explain the sudden and unexpected popularity of people was wearing, promoting or developing whatever it is before anyone else paid attention. Anecdotal evidence of this kind fits nicely with the idea that only certain special people can drive trends.
In their recent work, however, some researchers have come up with the finding that influentials have far less impact on social epidemics than is generally supposed. In fact, they don’t seem to be required of all.
The researchers’ argument stems from a simple observing about social influence, with the exception of a few celebrities like Oprah Winfrey-whose outsize presence is primarily a function of media, not interpersonal, influence-even the most influential members of a population simply don’t interact with that many others. Yet it is precisely these non-celebring influentials who according to the two-step-flow theory, are supposed to drive social epidemics, by influcenciny their friends and colleagues directly. For a social epidemic to occur, however, each person so affected, must then influence his or her own acquaintances, who must in turn influence theirs, and so on; and just how many others pay attention to each of these people has little to do with initial influential. If people in the network just two degrees removed from the initial influential prove resistant, for example the casecade of change won’t propagate very far or affect many people.
Building on the basic truth about interpersonal influence, the researchers studied the dynamics of populations manipulating a number of variables relating to people’s ability to influence others and their tendencies to be.
31. By citing the book The Tipping Point, the author intends to
[A] analyze the consequences of social epidemics
[B] discuss influentials’ function in spreading ideas
[C] exemplify people’s intuitive response to social epidemics
[D] describe the essential characteristics of influentials
32. The author suggests that the “two-step-flow theory”
[A] serves as a solution to marketing problems
[B] has helped explain certain prevalent trends
[C] has won support from influentials
[D] requires solid evidence for its validity
33. What the researchers have observed recently shows that
[A] the power of influence goes with social interactions
[B] interpersonal links can be enhanced through the media
[C] influentials have more channels to reach the public
[D] most celebrities enjoy wide media attention
34. The underlined phrase “these people” in paragraph 4 refers to the ones who
[A] stay outside the network of social influence
[B] have little contact with the source of influence
[C] are influenced and then influence others
[D] are influenced by the initial influential
35. What is the essential element in the dynamics of social influence?
[A] The eagerness to be accepted
[B] The impulse to influence others
[C] The readiness to be influenced
[D] The inclination to rely on others

Bankers have been blaming themselves for their troubles in public. Behind the scenes, they have been taking aim at someone else; the accounting standard-setters. Their rules, moan the banks, have forced them to report enormous losses, and it’s just not fair. These rules say they must valve some assets at the price a third party would pay, not the price managers and regulators would like them to fetch.
Unfortunately, banks’ lobbying now seems to be working. The details may be unknowable, but the independence of standard-setters, essential to the proper functioning of capital markets, is being compromised. And, unless banks carry toxic assets at prices that attract buyers, reviving the banking system will be difficult. After a bruising encounter with
European ministers instantly demanded that the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) do likewise. The IASB says it does not want to act without overall planning, but the pressure to fold when it completes it reconstruction of rules later this year is strong. Charlie McCreevy, a European commissioner, warned the IASB that it did “not live in a political vacuum” but “in the real world” and that
It was banks that were on the wrong planet, with accounts that vastly overvalued assets. Today they argue that market prices overstate losses, because they largely reflect the temporary illiquidity of markets, not the likely extent of bad debts. The truth will not be known for years. But bank’s shares trade below their book value, suggesting that investors are skeptical. And dead markets partly reflect the paralysis of banks which will not sell assets for fear of booking losses, yet are reluctant to buy all those supposed bargains.
To get the system working again, losses must be recognized and dealt with.
36. Bankers complained that they were forced to
[A] follow unfavorable asset evaluation rules
[B] collect payments from third parties
[C] cooperate with the price managers
[D] reevaluate some of their assets
37. According to the author, the rule changes of the FASB may result in
[A] the diminishing role of management
[B] the revival of the banking system
[C] the banks’ long-term asset losses
[D] the weakening of its independence
38. According to Paragraph 4, McCreevy objects to the IASB’s attempt to
[A] keep away from political influences.
[B] evade the pressure from their peers.
[C] act on their own in rule-setting.
[D] take gradual measures in reform.
39. The author thinks the bank were “on the wrong planet” in that they
[A] misinterpreted market price indicators
[B] exaggerated the real value of their assets.
[C] neglected the likely existence of bad debts.
[D] denied booking losses in their sale of assets.
40. The author’s attitude towards standard-setters is one of \
[A] satisfaction
[B] skepticism
[C] objectiveness
[D] sympathy

[A]The first and more important is the consumer’s growing preference for eating out: the consumption of food and drink in places other than hours has risen from about 32 percent of total consumption on 1995 to 35% in 2000 and is expected to approach 38% by 2005. This development is boosting wholesale demand from the food service segment by 4 to 5% a year as the recession is looming large, people are getting anxious. They tend keep a tighter hold on their purse and consider eating at home a realistic alternation
[B]Retail, sales of food and drink in
[C]Will such variations bring about a change in overall structure of the food and drink market? Definitely not. The functioning of the market is base on flexible trends dominated by potential buyers. In other words, it is up to the buyer, rather than the seller, to decide. What to buy. At any rate, this change and international consumers, regardless of how long the current consumer pattern will take hold.
[D]All in all, this clearly seems to be a market in which big retailers could profitably apply their gigantic scale, existing infrastructure, and proven skills in the management of product ranges, logistics, and marketing intelligence. Retailers that master the intricacies of wholesaling in
[E]Despite variations in detail, wholesale markets in the countries that have been closely examined — France, Germany, Italy, and Spain — are made out of the same building block. Demand mainly from two sources: in dependent mom—and –pop grocery stores which, unlike large retail chains, are too small to buy straight when they don’t eat at home. Such food service operators, but most of these businesses are known in the trade as “horeca”: hotels, restaurant and cafes. Overall,
[F]for example, wholesale food and drink sales came to $268 billion in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom in 2000 - more than 40 percent of retail sales. Moreover, average overall margins are higher in wholesale than in retail ; wholesale demand from the food service sector is growing quickly as more Europeans eat out more often ;and in the competitive dynamics of this fragmented industry are at last man it feasible for wholesalers to consolidate.
[G]However, none of these requirements should deter large retailers land even some large food producers and existing wholesalers, from trying their hand, foe those that master the intricacies of wholesaling in

One basic weakness in a conservation system based wholly on economic motives is that most members of the land community have no economic value. Yet these creatures are members of the biotic community and, if its stability depends on its integrity, they are entitled to continuance.
When one of these non-economic categories is threatened, and, if we happen to love it .We invent excuses to give it economic importance. At the beginning of century songbirds were supposed to be disappearing.(46) Scientists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence to the effect that insects would eat us up of birds failed to control them, the evidence had to be economic in order to be valid.
It is painful to read these round about accounts today .We have no land ethic yet, (47) but we have at least drawn nearer the point of admitting that birds should continue as a matter of intrinsic right, regardless of the presence or absence of economic advantage to us.
A parallel situation exists in respect of predatory mammals and fish-eating birds .(48) Time was when biologists somewhat overworked the evidence that these creatures preserve the health of game by killing the physically weak, or that they prey only on “worthless species.
Some species of trees have been read out of the party by economics-minded foresters because they grow too slowly, or have too low a sale vale to pay as timber crops (49) In Europe ,where forestry is ecologically more advanced ,the non-commercial tree species are recognized as members of native forest community ,to be preserved as such ,within reason.
To sum up: a system of conservation based solely on economic self-interest is hopelessly lopsided.(50) It tends to ignore, and thus eventually to eliminate, many elements in the land community that lack commercial value, but that are essential to its healthy functioning. Without the uneconomic pats.

26.C
解析:細節(jié)題。題干問及商業(yè)專利方法在比較近引起關注的原因是是什么,解答本題應定位二段首句并結合一段的主旨要義。二段首句指出“國家比較高專利法庭準備對商業(yè)方法專利進行縮減,這引起了了爭議。”一段主要提及在過去10年商業(yè)方法授予了成千上萬的專利。由此可見,選項C是對原文的同義置換故為正確答案。
27.B
解析:推理判斷題。文章在二段提及Bilski case,在四段提及對Bilski case的結論性說明,在四段中針對Bilski case,聯(lián)邦機構發(fā)表了不同尋常的法令,而四段末句提到該法令引起對“state street Bank ruling”的是否重新考慮,由此可知B為正確答案。
28.C
解析:詞匯短語題。含有該詞的句子起到承前啟后作用,解答本題應結合二段主旨及三段because后的句意來解題,二段提及“國家比較高專利法庭準備對商業(yè)方法專利進行縮減”,而三段提及introduced such patents…, approving a patent…,由此可知,宣稱對商業(yè)方法的控制將會有巨大的態(tài)度轉變,故C正確。
29.B
解析:推論題。結合倒數(shù)二段二句及末段首句可知B符合文意。此題用排除法比較為便利。文章的比較后兩段未提到ACD的內容。而B項的內容符合“that too many patents were being upheld”,同時B 選項的內容符合文章的中心。
30.D
解析:主旨題。文章首段提到“過去10年”,而二段首句轉到“Now”,文章的此脈絡結構可知“ A prevailing tread”可統(tǒng)領文意,此外文章二至四段,主要談及聯(lián)邦巡講對“business-method patents”的立場變化,故D為正確答案。
Text 3
31.B
解析:細節(jié)題。文章提到Tipping Point真本書描述社會流行風潮是由一小部分名人引起的,然而,筆鋒一轉在首段末又說“it doesn’t explain how ideas actually spread”。進而引出作者對名人傳播想法功能的討論。由此B選項正確。而A、C、D 均不是作者要討論的問題。
32.D
解析:細節(jié)題。文章第二段首句 “the supposed…plausible sounding but largely untested theory。.”以及末句“…only certain special people can drive trends”充分說明這種理論證據(jù)不夠充足。而D選項正確的反應了文中的內容。
33.A
解析:根據(jù)題干,線索大致定位到第三段,但是第三段并沒有清晰的找到題解,而接下來的第四段清晰的反應出了社會互動所產生的巨大影響這一內容。A選項充分的表明了這一點。
34.C
解析:根據(jù)題干,線索定位到第四段。同過分析這個短語所在的句子,“For a social epidemic…;just how many others pay attention to each of these people has little to do with…”此句主要表明人們是如何被別人影響進而又去影響別人的。而C選項恰是對這一點的正確表述。
35.C
解析:細節(jié)題。根據(jù)題干,線索定位到比較后一段,從“…relating of populations, manipulating a number of variables relating to people’s ability to influence others and their tendency to be…”這句話中能夠得知社會影響動力因素包括人們影響別人的能力包括被別人影響的傾向性。而C選項充分的體現(xiàn)了這一點。
Text 4
36.A
解析:細節(jié)題。答案意為“遵循不利的資產評估準則”。
由題干中的 “Bankers complained” 和 “force”定位于第一段第三行 “Their rules, moan the banks, have forced them to report enormous losses, and it’s just not fair. These rules say they must value some assets at the price a third party would pay, not the price managers and regulators would like them to fetch。” 該句核心詞為rules,四個答案中只有A選項包含。
37.A
解析:推理引申題。答案意為“管理的作用的逐漸消失”。根據(jù)題干中的專有名詞FASB定位于第三段。第一句提到FASB經過努力使國會通過了一些變革,這些變革賦予了銀行更多的權利,也就是說對銀行的管理更為松散,所以答案為“管理的作用的逐漸消失”。
38.C
解析:細節(jié)題。答案意為“獨立自主的制定法規(guī)”。根據(jù)題干中的 “McCreevy objects to”定位到第五段。第五段提到立即根據(jù)美國的變化做出一樣的反應,歐洲的各界人士對此的反對十分強烈,引用McCreevy的話是為了說明這一點:歐洲要對這個問題有自己獨立的法律法規(guī)。
39.C
解析:句意題。答案意為“忽視了壞賬存在的極大可能性”。根據(jù)題干的信息定位到第六段Today they argue that market prices overstate losses, because they largely reflect the temporary illiquidity of markets, not the likely extent of bad debts。批判銀行一味的夸大“that market prices overstate losses”,而忽視了“the likely extent of bad debts”。
40.D
解析:情感態(tài)度題。文章討論了銀行針對“standard-setters”的敵意行為,特別是文章比較后一段更是明確的表明了作者對“standard-setters”的同情。
Part B
41.B
解析:本題需要找出文章的首段,可用排除法做。首先A 選項中提到“the first and more important…”中的 “more” 應該在前文中提到,故排除。B選項首句就提出了歐洲食品零售所面臨的問題,根據(jù)文章結構法:提出問題—分析問題—解決問題,此段符合首段要求,即提出了文章的中心問題,而且本選項中也沒有明顯的需要和上文銜接的關系詞,而其它選項都有明顯的與上文銜接的信息詞,不能在首段出現(xiàn),故B為正確答案。
42.F
解析:首段一旦確定,本段內容便可根據(jù)上文順藤摸瓜,第一段比較后一句話“but”后指出了雖然食品零售商面臨著“at a standstill (幾乎停止發(fā)展)”的問題,他們卻忽略了一個潛在的市場即他們身邊的 “wholesale food and trade(食品批發(fā)市場)”。而F 選項首句便舉例說明法國、德國、意大利等國家的食品批發(fā)產業(yè)的市場規(guī)模比食品零售產業(yè)要大40%。而且在“moreover”后又進一步說明批發(fā)的利潤大零售很多。因此可以判斷此選項是對第一段的例證說明。其中 “for example” 是明顯的信息提示詞。
43.D
解析:上段介紹了食品批發(fā)商的優(yōu)勢,而D選項第一句“All in all, this clearly seems to be a market in which…” 則對上文的內容進行總結,其中all in all 是較明顯的信息提示詞,即上文中提到的食品批發(fā)的優(yōu)勢推出這是明顯對于 “big retailers that master the intricacies of wholesaling”是一個“market”。因此D項為正確答案。
44.G
解析:上段比較后一句提出的“particular abilities” 以及“new skills and unfamiliar business models are needed。” , 即零售商需要新的技能及不熟悉的商業(yè)模式。而G選項第一句提到的 “these requirements(這些要求)”正是指上文所提到的技能。
45.A
解析:此題可以用排除法做,所剩下的選項只有A和C,需要注意的是本題并沒有明顯的信息詞,所以需要閱讀選項的內容進而找出正確答案。此題前文的已知段落E選項中比較后一句“two opposing trends”在A選項中得到了體現(xiàn),即一方面由于人們選擇在外就餐而擴大了食品批發(fā)的需求,而另一方面人們又開始感到“anxious(焦慮)”。而C選項第一句提到的“such variations”在上文中并沒有得到體現(xiàn),因此可以斷定A為正確答案。
Part C
46. Scinentists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence to the effect that insects would eat us up if birds failed to control them。
解析:句子的主干是“scientists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence”,后接that 引導的同位語從句。If引導的條件狀語從句修飾that從句。to the effect that大意是,意思是; fail to 未能; jump to立即,趕快 the rescue營救,援救,解救。
參考譯文:科學家們立即拿出某些明顯站不住腳的證據(jù)前來救駕,大致說的是如果鳥兒不能控制害蟲的話,害蟲就會把我們吃掉。
47. but we have at least drawn near the point of admitting that birds should continue survival as a matter of intrinsic right, regardless of the presence or absence of economic advantage to us。
解析:句子主干we have drawn near the point。介詞短語of admitting that.。.作定語修飾point。其中嵌套了that從句作admit的賓語從句。regardless of.。.作讓步狀語。a matter of ...。.的問題,大約;draw near 接近,靠近;intrinsic right天生的權利,固有的權利;economic advantage經濟利益,經濟優(yōu)勢。
參考譯文:但是我們至少已經幾乎承認了這樣一種觀點:不管鳥類對我們是否有經濟利益,生存都是它們的固有權利。
48. Time was when biologists somewhat over worded the evidence that these creatures preserve the health of game by killing the physically weak,or that they prey only on “worthless species。
解析:主干time was when...。when引導了表語從句。Time was when可看作固定短語,譯為“從前,曾經”。注意兩個并列同位語從句的翻譯。
參考譯文:曾幾何時,生物學家總是重述以下的這條證據(jù):這些生物通過捕食弱小的動物去維持生物鏈的正常運行,或它們只是去捕食“沒有價值的物種”。
49. In Europe, where forestry is ecologically more advanced, the non-commercial tree species are recognized as members of native forest community, to be preserved as such, within reason。
解析:句子的主體是“the noncommercial tree species are recognized as members of the native forest community”,包含被動語態(tài)。句子開頭是一個where引導的定語從句,to be preserved是修飾noncommercial tree species的成分。Within reason合情合理的,理智的。注意被動語態(tài)的處理。
參考譯文:歐洲的林業(yè)從生態(tài)上講較為先進,它把沒有成為商業(yè)化對象的樹種視為原始森林群落的成員而適當?shù)丶右员Wo。
50. It tends to ignore, and thus eventually to eliminate, many elements in the land community that lack commercial value, but that are essential to its healthy functioning。
