三、阅读理解(每小题2分，满分30分）

(A)

The song Happy Birthday to You is an example of just how interesting the world is. Think about this song---it is only 6 notes. Yet it is one of the best-known songs in the world. It was written in 1893 by Mildred and Patty Hill and first published with the words, “Good morning to you”.

The words“Happy Birthday to You”were first seen in print in 1924, although the author is unknown. The Clayton F. Summy Company became the song’s publisher in 1935. Through a series of purchases and acquisitions(收购), the song now belongs to AOL Time Warner. ASCAP represents the song for public performance licensing.

The copyright to Happy Birthday to You should have expired(过期) in 1991, but copyright Act of 1976 extended(延长）it，and the Copyright Term Extension Act of 1998 extended it again, so the song is protected until 2030 at least.

Happy Birthday to You brings in about $ 2 million per year. If you ever hear the song in a movie, TV show or an ad, a licensing fee has been paid. Any manufacturer that plays the song pays a licensing. The manufacturer of any musical card playing the songs pays a licensing fee. This 6-note song is a big business!

(C)

There are several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. You can talk to friends who have traveled to the places, you can go and see a colour film about them, or you can read a travel book.

It seems that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal, subjective(主观的) idea of travels which their writer has got himself. These books can be useful if the writers share their traveling experiences with others. The second kind are those books which give objective(客观的) information of things to be done and seen. If a cultured person has written such a book about the facts of a place, then it is more useful. The third kind are those books which are called “a guide” to some place or other. If they are good, they will describe and explain the place in detail. Like the first kind , they can be interesting and exciting, but their main purpose is to help the reader plan his travel in the most practical way.

Whatever kind of travel book you choose, you must make sure that the book does not describe everything as interesting, exciting or fantastic. You must also keep an open eyes on its date of publication(出版) because travel is very practical matter and many things change quickly in the 21st century. Finally, you should make sure that it’s easy to find the useful information for you travel.

 A. travel maps  B. travel books C. travel films D. travel places

 A. the prices of travel books may be different

 B. the writers of travel books may be different

 C. the information in travel books is always the same
