26、k your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. 30 Internet piracy refers to the use of the Internet for illegally copying or distributing unauthorized software. In these cases the Internet is the medium for advertising, offering, acquiring, or distributing pirated software.
27、 The Business Software Alliance, a software industry trade association, estimates that there are 840 000 Internet sites selling illegal software as genuine product. Many consumers who acquire software over the Internet never receive the programs they paid for. Others are not able to get their money
28、back if they discover that the software they acquired is counterfeit. Disreputable Internet businesses often quickly vanish, leaving behind hundreds of dissatisfied consumers. The ease of creating a Website and then advertising and distributing software through the Internet has increased sales of pi
29、rated software passed off by seemingly legitimate businesses. Plus, the explosive growth of e-commerce, combined with anonymity (匿名 ) and unlimited volume, have made it even easier for criminals to sell counterfeit (伪造的 ) software online. Illegal online businesses often have professional-looking Int
30、ernet sites that could fool even the smartest consumer. Distinguishing counterfeit software on the Internet is understandably difficult because consumers cant visually examine the product for physical warnings on the hardware, or see the person from whom theyre buying. Pirated software can often con
31、tain viruses with the potential to damage both individual computers or entire networks. Viruses can and do cause data loss, which would be devastating to most companies. When using unlicensed software, you are not eligible for technical support from the software publisher. If you have a technical is
32、sue in need of resolution, oftentimes a work-stopping issue, you are out of luck. In addition, product upgrades (升级 )less expensive upgrades of existing productsare not available to you.

39、together. 35 In 1998 consumers could purchase virtually anything over the Internet. Books, compact discs, and even stocks were available from World Wide Web sites that seemed to spring up almost daily. A few years earlier, some people had predicted that consumers accustomed to shopping in stores wou
40、ld be reluctant to buy things that they could not see or touch in person. For a growing number of time-starved consumers, however, shopping from their home computer was proving to be a convenient alternative to driving to the store. A research estimated that in 1998 U. S. consumers would purchase $
41、7. 3 billion of goods over the Internet, double the 1997 total. Finding a bargain was getting easier, owing to the rise of online auctions and Web sites that did comparison shopping on the Internet for the best deal. For all the consumer interest, retailing in cyberspace was still a largely unprofit
42、able business, however. Internet pioneer Amazon, com, which began selling books in 1995 and later branched into recorded music and videos, posted revenue of $ 153. 7 million in the third quarter, up from $37. 9 million in the same period of 1997. Overall, however, the companys loss widened to $ 45.
43、2 million from $ 9. 6 million, and analysts did not expect the company to turn a profit until 2003. Despite the great loss, Amazon, com had a stock market value of many billions, reflecting investors optimism about the future of the industry. Internet retailing appealed to investors because it provi
44、ded an efficient means for reaching millions of consumers without having the cost of operating conventional stores with their armies of salespeople. Selling online carried its own risks, however. With so many companies competing for consumers attention, price competition was intense and profit margi
45、ns thin or nonexistent. One video retailer sold the hit movie Titanic for $ 9. 99, undercutting (削价 ) the $ 19. 99 suggested retail price and losing about $ 6 on each copy sold. With Internet retailing still in its initial stage, companies seemed willing to absorb such losses in an attempt to establ
46、ish a dominant market position. 36 Which of the following is true, according to the writer? （ A） Consumers are reluctant to buy things on the Internet. （ B） Consumers are too busy to buy things on the Internet. （ C） More and more consumers prefer Internet shopping. （ D） Internet retailing is a profi
