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 from 30 to 34.
Advertising helps people recognize a particular brand, persuades them to try it, and tries to keep them
loyal to it. Brand loyalty is perhaps the most important goal of consumer advertising. Whether they produce
cars, canned foods or cosmetics, manufacturers want their customers to make repeated purchases. The quality
of the product will encourage this, of course, but so, too, will affect advertising.
Advertising relies on the techniques of market research to identify potential users of a product. Are they
homemakers or professional people? Are they young or old? Are they city dwellers or country dwellers? Such
questions have a bearing on where and when ads should be played. By studying readership breakdowns for
newspapers and magazines as well as television ratings and other statistics, an advertising agency can decide on
the best way of reaching potential buyers. Detailed research and marketing expertise are essential today when
advertising budgets can run into thousands of millions of dollars.
Advertising is a fast-paced, high-pressure industry. There is a constant need for creative ideas that will
establish a personality for a product in the public’s mind. Current developments in advertising increase the need
for talented workers.
In the past, the majority of advertising was aimed at the traditional white family – breadwinner father,
non- working mother, and two children. Research now reveals that only about 6 percent of American households
fit this stereotype. Instead, society is fragmented into many groups, with working mothers, single people and
older people on the rise. To be most successful, advertising must identify a particular segment and aim its
message toward that group.
Advertising is also making use of new technologies. Computer graphics are used to grab the attention of
consumers and to help them see products in a new light. The use of computer graphics in a commercial for
canned goods, for instance, gave a new image to the tin can.
Question 30: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. How to develop a successful advertising plan
B. New techniques and technologies of market research
C. The central role of advertising in selling products
D. The history of advertising in the United States
Question 31: The word “this” in bold type in paragraph 1 refers to _____.
A. the quality of the product B. effective advertising
C. repeatedly buying the same brand D. the most important goal
Question 32: According to paragraph 2, market research includes _____.
A. studying television ratings
B. hiring researchers with backgrounds in many fields
C. searching for talented workers
D. determining the price of a product
Question 33: According to the passage, most advertising used to be directed at _____.
A. working mothers with children B. two-parent families with children
C. unmarried people D. older adults
Question 34: The phrase “in a new light” in bold type in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to _____.
A. differently B. with the use of color enhancement
C. more distinctly D. in a more energy-efficient way
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 from 35 to 42.
Property, 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
plagiarus, 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.
Question 35: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Legal rights of property owners B. Legal ownership of creative work
C. Examples of copyright piracy D. Copying creating work for profit

D. two plays, created by two different playwrights, have the same plot and characters
