难句突破:
(1) The music association isolates Internet addresses that generate high downloading and file-sharing traffic, then asks the school to turn over the identity of those students, so it can get in touch with them.
[主体句式]The music association isolates Internet addresses ,then asks the school to turn over…so it can get …
[结构分析] 这是一个并列句。在前面的分句中,that引导的定语从句修饰addresses, 后面分句是带有目的状语从句的句子。
[句子译文] 音乐协会隔离了高速下载和文件分享的因特网地址,还要求学校移交那些学生的身份以便与他们取得联系。
(2) When Cassandra Hunt, then a sophomore at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, received a notice from the school stating she was identified for violating copyright law, she asked the RIAA about the settlement fees.
[主体句式]When Casandra Hunt received a notice,she asked …
[结构分析] 这是一个复合句, 在状语从句中, then a sophomore…是主语的同位语; stating…现在分词结构做定语修饰前面的notice。
[句子译文] Cassandra Hunt是麻省理工学院的大学二年级学生,她从学校接到通知说已经被确定违反了版权法,于是就向美国唱片产业协会询问了解决费用。
题目分析:
1. Which one of the following is not the measure taken by RIAA to fight against music piracy on campus? 1. 下列哪个不是美国唱片产业协会打击学校音乐盗版的措施?
[A] Sending pre-litigation letters to students who have violated copyright law. [A] 给触犯了版权法的学生寄送预起诉信件。
[B] Blocking the access to downloading music to the students. [B] 向学生封锁了下载音乐的途径。
[C] Providing schools with charged legal access of music downloading services. [C] 为学校提供收费的音乐合法下载服务。
[D] Persuading schools to cooperate with them in supplying the students’ identity. [D] 要求学校配合提供学生的身份。
[答案]C
[难度系数] ☆
[分析] 细节题。选项A是全文中多次提到的;选项B,第三段提到了这一点。选项D,第三段也提到了这一点。C选项中所谓的“为学校提供收费的音乐合法下载服务”在文章中并没有具体的对应信息,属于空穴来风的选项。
