In
Britain,
people
tend
to
make
jokes
about
some
jobs
or
professions,
or
to
hold
stereotyped
views
of
them.
For
example,
sailors
are
supposed
to
have
a
in
every
port,
university professors are often seen as
absent-minded
or forgetful.
there are a lot of dirty jokes
about
sales representatives and they are generally
regarded as not particularly
dependable
other
jobs may be well-paid or very
responsible
, but the general
public think they are funny or rather
boring
For
instance,
in
most
other
European
countries
to
be
an
engineer
is
to
be
somebody
Funnily
enough, in Britain engineers are thought of as
gloomy rather than cheerful
as result
of
people's ignorance of the importance
of engineers in society.

The
man
and
the
woman
in
the
play
were
tourists
Their
names
were
Sidney
and
Ethel
Shakespeare wrote a lot of
plays
The woman thought that
he wrote them on a
typewriter
,The man
said
that
Shakespeare
used a
tape-recorder,
and
imagined
him
with
a
microphone
,
in
his
hand.
The man said that Shakespeare was too
busy to watch television, because he went to the
theatre
every
night.
They
thought
the
other
man
was
Shakespeare’s
grandchild
They
told
him
he
was
lucky to live in a
famous
house.

Copyright
is
the
exclusive
legal
right,
given
to
the
originator
or
their
assignee
for
a
fixed
number of
years, to print, publish, perform, film, or record
literary, musical, or artistic material,
and to
authorize
others to do the same.
A federal judge’s ruling in New York
Wednesday that Internet music
distributor
must pay
up to $$250 million to Universal Music
Group for copyright infringements has
raised
questions not
just about the future of , but also
generally the future for
downloading
music, movies
and other
products
from the Internet.
U.S.
Distr
ict Judge Jed said
ordered it to pay
$$25000
per Universal CD.
An exact number of CDs and total
damages will be determined at a
November hearing
.
vowed to
appeal.
We believe that everyone should
have the right to listen to
the music
they purchase
, even if it’s
on the Internet.
