SUBJECT ONE
PART 1: READING (15 ps)
Read the text carefully then do the activities.
A. COMPREHENSION (08pts)
Most people buying a fake handbag think they are doing an absolutely reasonable thing. They are purchasing a ‘luxury” item bearing a world-famous brand name. They will be able to show it off to colleagues and friends. They are not bothered at all that everyone knows it’s a fake. A lot of fake products look good.
Experts involved in cases considering intellectual property rights want customers to realize the reverse of the coin. Lawyers and other specialists, who deal with rising customers’ awareness about negative effects caused by fake goods business, try to change the situation. They want shoppers to change the way they think about counterfeit luxury goods. Customers have to realize what kind of activities they involuntarily support. Citizens should be socially responsible enough to give up shopping for counterfeit goods.
Fake watches, shoes and other products lead to legitimate manufactures’ considerable loss in profits. As for retailers, they lose not only in profits but also jobs, while the community doesn’t receive proper tax revenues. Moreover, what most people do not realize is the fact that fake goods business is linked to bad working conditions, child labor and crimes. Fake goods business is a serious problem to be resolved by all industries, from wallets and DVDs to drugs.

PART ONE: Reading (15 pts )
A. Comprehension (7 pts )
Read the following text carefully then do the activities.
Ethics is a short, two-syllable word of six letters that affects every segment of our life. Ethics is a moral code involving a clear understanding of right and wrong. Another word for ethics is values. When people talk about ethics, they may focus on one specific area, such as business, medical, political, environmental, religious, or personal ethics. Here, we are going to focus on another important area of ethics :
If you have good computer ethics, you will not try to harass or hurt people with your computer, and you will not commit crimes such as information theft or virus creation. The problem that often arises when some of us work on a computer is that we don't see the harm in snooping in another person's private information or trying to figure out password. It seems smart to copy and paste information into a school report and pretend that we wrote it .It was probably public property -which most of it isn't, that would be the crimes committed with hacking or gaming scams that don't seem harmful because the victims lack faces. Flaming (aiming abusive, insulting messages at another person online) seems risk-free since we are anonymous. Indulging in obscenities and other offensive behavior online feels empowering simply because no one knows who we really are. No one is going to come knocking on the door and demand a physical confrontation. However, each one of those activities is a violation of computer ethics.
The Computer Ethics Institute, a nonprofit research and education organization in Washington
