A

How will traditional print media forge a working relationship with news websites in the digital age? This is a question that both sides need to consider from a long-term viewpoint.

The conviction(定罪) of a software developer for going against the property rights of the Beijing News by using what the newspaper had published on its iPad service reveals only a tip of the iceberg when it comes to the illegal use of print media's content by news websites. In this case, the software developer used content published by 60 papers without their knowledge.

The Beijing News won the case and the intellectual property rights violator was ordered to pay 100,000 yuan in compensation. If anything, this can be considered a minor victory for the Beijing News, compared to its three similar suits over the past decade.

Yet, the Beijing News is alone in the fight. Other media outlets choose to turn a blind eye to the piracy because they wouldn’t bother to take the lot of time and energy for the lawsuit with a likely compensation that might not be enough to cover the costs for winning the case.

Considering this situation, print media and news websites must work out a way to cooperate in a manner that will benefit both.

In the long run, it will be impossible and impractical for news websites to live on print media. With the progress protecting intellectual property rights in recent years, there will be no way for them to use the content free of charge all the time. They must find a way to cooperate with traditional print media in such a way that they can legally use their resources.

For the part of print media outlets, they must rise up to protect their rights for their own existence. There should be an environment to make it very costly for whoever threatens intellectual property rights. Then most print media organizations could afford to bring violators to court. On the other hand, costly, time-consuming and troublesome as such suits are, more print media must rise up so that more pressure will put on both the violators and the courts. Then they will be able to improve the environment for themselves and break the illegal cycle. 56. How many suits has Beijing News ever lodged(提起)?

A. Only one. B. Exactly three. C. At least four. D. More than five.

57. Which of the following can be a reason for there to be few such suits?

A. The court doesn’t pay much attention to such boring suits as usually last a long time.

B. Print media outlets don’t think it worth their efforts.

C. Engineers on the news websites are usually far cleverer to win such cases. D. There are few examples of winning such suits.

58. Why does the author insist that more news media should rise up?

A. They can receive a certain compensation for their intellectual property rights.

B. They should try their best to trouble the courts with more pressure.

C. Their joint efforts can lead to a better environment for their own existence. D. The piracy of the news websites is no longer tolerable.

59. What’s probably the meaning of the underlined word “violator” in the third paragraph?

A. Somebody who makes a lot of money against the law. B. Somebody who keeps something secret from others.

C. A person who is determined to publish news illegally. D. A person who does something against the law.
