The social purpose of the copyright system is to encourage creativity and the advancement of

knowledge by giving those who make intellectual ( 智力的) contributions a “unique right to their

writings and discoveries” for limited times. Protection is provided for a much longer time for copyrights

than for patents. The U.S. Copyright Law of 1976 provides a term or the lifetime of the author plus 50

years. It recognizes that the value of written works often extends over a longer time than that of

technological advances in the public area.

It is essential to register for formal copyright protection in order to have some degree of protection

against the copyright of one’s works by others. The procedure for obtaining a copyright registration is

quite simple—an application is submitted with a small fee and two copies of the work. No examination

is made, and the copyright is immediately in force.

The Copyright Office will provide on request a variety of leaflets ( 小册子 ) describing the

procedure and giving information about the classes of subject matter that can be registered.

Those are subject to protection:

(1) Books and newspapers (2) Lectures

(3) Dramatic compositions (4) Films

(5) Maps (6) Works of art

(7) Sound recordings (8) Photographs

(9) Prints and labels (10) Musical compositions

Those are not subject to protection:

(1) Ideas (2) Systems, methods and plans

(3) Government publications (4) Laws and opinions of courts

You can contact the Copyright Office (wwcoprightfice.org) for more information.

1. In which aspect do copyrights differ from patents according to the passage?

A. The application fee. B. The contribution to society.

C. The intellectual value. D. The duration of protection.

2. Which of the following should you provide for copyright registration?

A. Photos of yourself. B. Copies of your work.

C. Introductory leaflets. D. Examination certificates.

3. According to the text, the Copyright Office may reject ___________.

A. a movie about a new method of time travel

B. an original musical composition for children

C. an official document issued by the local county

D. a book about one’s opinions on American laws

“I am so sorry,” I tearfully said to my principal investigator (PI), explaining I would not be able to

return to work as originally planned. Before I became a parent, I had assumed a baby would fit right into

my academic plans. But now, as the end of my leave approached, I realized I couldn’t simply carry on as

I always had. I was worried this decision might signal the end of my academic career—but I felt I had no

other choice.

Thankfully, my PI had more foresight. He told me I didn’t need to resign and that he could offer me

a contract that would allow me to contribute to our project from afar. It proved to be an absolute career

lifeline tailored to me.

Then five years after stepping back from academia, I felt ready to re-enter more fully. Because I had

been able to keep my hand in during my time away, the prospect was much less daunting than it would

have been otherwise. I ended up landing a lecturer position that allowed me to slowly ease back in,

focusing on teaching and scholarship with research taking a back seat. And when, 4 years on, a senior

lectureship position came up in the very group I had left a decade earlier, the timing was right. With both

of my children in “big school”, I was ready to really put my foot down on the career accelerator. I got the

job.

Now, 6 months into my new role, I am happy to be right where it all began, with involvement in so

many interesting projects. But what truly made the difference for me was the offer of what I needed

during that time away. I hope more institutions and PIs can come up with creative provisions (条款) for

those in their workforce who don’t want to give up their careers but want-or-need to take extended

periods of leave. And to those who are taking such breaks, or considering it, know that returning is

possible. Above all, on both sides: Please do not discount extended leavers. We have a lot to offer—if we

are given the chance.

4. What can we learn about the author from the first paragraph?

A. Her path to PI began when she became a parent.

B. She struck a balance between work and family.

C. She had intended to stick to her academic plans.

D. She chose to prioritize her career over her family.

5. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “daunting” in paragraph 3?

A. Fearsome. B. Realistic. C. Regretful. D. Promising.

6. What contributed most to her success according to the author?

A. Academic researches. B. Supportive work environment.

C. Interest in the projects. D. Involvement in engaging projects.

7. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the passage?

A. To analyse. B. To entertain. C. To report. D. To promote.

高三英语试题第 3页（共 8页）

Reunions offer a chance to reflect on how much has changed. One happened in Hollywood when

Here premiered (首映), bringing together the actors, director and writer behind Forrest Gump 40 years

later for a new film. The stars were “de-aged” using new AI tools, making them more youthful in some

scenes and enabling the filmmakers to see the transformation in real time while shooting.

With the use of generative AI in film making come things worth watching. The first is how AI will

be used to tell new types of stories, as storytelling becomes more personalised and interactive. No one is

quite sure how the nature of storytelling will change, but it is sure to. David Thomson, a film historian,

compares generative AI to the advent (问世) of sound. When movies were no longer silent, it changed

the way plot points were made and how deeply viewers could connect with characters. Cristóbal

Valenzuela, who runs a company providing AI-enhanced software, says AI is like a “new kind of

camera”, offering a fresh “opportunity to reimagine what stories are like”. Both are right.

Another big development to watch is how AI will be used as a time-saving tool. Generative AI will

automate and simplify complex tasks like film-editing and special effects. For a glimpse of the future,

watch Everything Everywhere All at Once, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2023. It

featured a scene that used a “rotoscoping” tool to edit out the green-screen background and make a

talking rock more believable. It shortened into hours what might have otherwise taken days of

video-editing.

What is also noticeable is more dramatic conflicts between creators and those running AI platforms.

This year is likely to bring floods of lawsuits (诉讼) from authors, musicians and actors about how their

works have been used to train AI systems without permission or payment. Perhaps they can agree on

some sort of licensing arrangement, in which AI companies start paying copyright-holders.

It will probably be a few years before a full-length film is produced entirely by AI, but it is just a

matter of time.

8. What can we learn about the film Here?

A. It relates a story about youth.

B. The theme of the film is reunion.

C. It is adapted from Forrest Gump.

D. AI tools are employed in the film.

9. What does David think of AI’s application in film making?

A. Representative. B. Irreplaceable. C. Transformative. D. Destructive.

10. Why does the author mention the film Everything Everywhere All at Once?

A. To analyse a novel way of video-editing. B. To show the high efficiency of AI tools.

C. To demonstrate the influence of the film. D. To praise the hard work behind the scenes.

11. What is the article mainly about?

A. AI’s huge effects on film production. B. Conflicts between man and machine.

C. Drawbacks of dependence on AI tools. D. Hot debate on the use of technology.

Writing out the same word again and again may bring back bad memories for some, but

handwriting can boost connectivity across brain regions, some of which are involved in learning and

memory, a new study shows.
