Is a name important for a person? For many famous persons, their names may bring them a lot of money.
Michael Jordan, the NBA famous basketball player, has given his name to many popular products. And the company which uses his name gives much money to him.
Maybe that’s why Jordan is suing(起诉)a Chinese company called “Qiaodan”. It makes shoes and clothes for playing sports, and makes a lot
of money. The problem is, Qiaodan is Jordan’s name in Chinese. Jordan owns a copyright on his name. This means others can’t use it to make money, unless he agrees. Qiaodan never asked him if they could use his name.
But is “Qiaodan” the same name as “Michael Jordan”? Qiaodan says it isn’t. “We just use a Chinese translation of a common foreign family name, and it can’t be identified(被识别) with Michael Jordan. ”
Jordan thinks it can be. After all, Qiaodan has a logo that looks like a logo of NIKE’s , and even sells shoes named after Jordan’s children.
But Qiaodan has been using the name for about 12 years, and Jordan is suing this year. Why did he wait so long?
Some say he is too late. Under Chinese law, Qiaodan already owns the copyright on “Qiaodan” in China. Michael Jordan may own the name “Michael Jordan”, but does he own “Qiaodan”? What do you think? 11. Michael Jordan is a famous________. A. football player C. baseball player
B. basketball player D. volleyball player
12. Jordan is suing a Chinese company called “Qiaodan” maybe because________. A. the Chinese company called “Qiaodan” makes shoes and clothes for playing sports B. the Chinese company uses a Chinese translation of a common foreign family name

B. “Qiaodan” is only a Chinese translation of a common foreign family name C. “Qiaodan”can be identified with Michael Jordan D. the logo of “Qiaodan” is the same as the logo of NIKE’s 14. Under Chinese law, Qiaodan already owns ________. A. the copyright on “Qiaodan” in China B. the copyright on “Michael Jordan” in China C. the copyright on “Jordan’s children” in China D. the copyright on “Qiaodan” in the USA

假设你是大明， 你的朋友Jack 来信说要到北京旅游，询问北京一年四季的天气状况，并就旅游的最佳季节征求你的意见。请你根据提示给他回信。(70个词左右)
Dear Jack,
I’m very happy to know that you are coming to Beijing.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ⅹ. 【参考范文】 Dear Jack,
I’m very happy to know that you are coming to Beijing. In spring, it is windy and there may be a sandstorm. So, it isn’t a good idea to come in spring. It’s very hot in summer but it may get cooler after shower. If you come in summer, bring your swimsuit. So we can go swimming together. Winter is freezing and dry but it can be very beautiful after snow. The best time to visit Beijing is autumn, because the weather then is usually cool and sunny. It’s a good idea to bring a camera because you’ll probably want to take photos. I hope this information is useful.
Yours, Daming
