Line Most forms of property are concrete and tangible, such as houses, cars, furniture, or anything 
else that is included in one’s possessions. Other forms of property can be intangible, and 
copyright deals with intangible forms of property. Copyright is a legal protection extended to 
authors of creative works, for example, books, magazine articles, maps, films, plays, television 
shows, software, paintings, photographs, music, choreography in dance, and all other forms of 
intellectual or artistic property.
Although the purpose of artistic property is usually public use and enjoyment, copyright 
establishes the ownership of the creator. When a person buys a copyrighted magazine, it belongs 
to this individual as a tangible object. However, the authors of the magazine articles own the 
research and the writing that went into creating the articles. The right to make and sell or give away 
copies of books or articles belongs to the authors, publishers, or other individuals or organizations 
that hold the copyright. To copy an entire book or a part of it, permission must be received from the 
copyright owner, who will most likely expect to be paid.
Copyright law distinguishes between different types of intellectual property. Music may be played 
by anyone after it is published. However, if it is performed for profit, the performers need to pay a 
fee, called a royalty. A similar principle applies to performances of songs and plays. On the other 
hand, names, ideas, and book titles are excepted. Ideas do not become copyrighted property until 
they are published in a book, a painting, or a musical work. Almost all artistic work created before 
the 20th century is not copyrighted because it was created before the copyright law was passed.
The two common ways of infringing upon the copyright are plagiarism and piracy. Plagiarizing the 
work of another person means passing it off as one's own. The word plagiarism is derived from the 
Latin plagiarus, which means “abductor." Piracy may be an a a of one person but, in many cases, 
it is a joint effort of several people who reproduce copyrighted material and sell it for profit without 
paying royalties to the creator. Technological innovations have made piracy easy, and anyone can 
duplicate a motion picture on videotape, a computer program, or a book. Video cassette recorders 
can be used by practically anyone to copy movies and television programs, and copying software 
has become almost as easy as copying a book. Large companies zealously monitor their copyrights 
for slogans, advertisements, and brand names, protected by a trademark.

Line For many people, mushrooms are strange, colorless, incomprehensible plants that should be 
 avoided. Quaint tales and scary stories surround mushrooms because some are extremely 
 poisonous. In reality, however, mushrooms are fungi that are simple plants without developed 
 roots, leaves, stems, flowers, or seeds. They grow in wetlands, grassy meadows, and woods. 
 Certain types of mushrooms 
5 are delicious and are included as ingredients in many recipes and trendy snacks. For example, 
 morels are considered one of the choicest foods, and truffles, related to morels, are highly 
 prized in Europe. Their shape is tube-like, and they remain entirely underground, a foot or more 
 below the surface. In the old days, dogs and pigs were specially trained to hunt them by scent.
 Mushrooms stand out among other plants because they have no chlorophyll and cannot 
generate
10 their own nourishment. The part of the fungus that rises above the ground is the fruiting body, 
 and the vegetative part that produces growth is hidden under the ground. It can be usually dug 
 up in the form of dense, white tangled filaments, which, depending on the food supply and 
 moisture, can live for hundreds of years. In fact, mushrooms, as well as the rest of the fungus 
 genus species, are one of the few remaining simple plants that are believed to be among the 
 oldest living organisms. When their
15 environment is not conducive to growth, filaments stop proliferating and can lie dormant for 
 dozens of years.
 Although mushrooms are rich in flavor and texture, they have little food value. Picking 
 mushrooms requires a thorough knowledge of environments where they are most likely to 
 grow and an ability to tell between edible and poisonous plants. Most mushrooms thrive in 
 temperatures from 68° to 86° (F)
20 with plenty of moisture, and nearly complete darkness produces the best crop. The entire 
 mushroom should be picked, the stem, the cap, and whatever part that is underground. Brightly 
 colored mushroom caps usually indicate that the plant is not fit for consumption, and the more 
 the mushroom attracts attention, the more poisonous it is. Mushrooms with beautiful red or 
 orange spotted caps that grow under large trees after a good rain are particularly poisonous. If 
 milky or white juices seep from a break in the body of plant, chances are it should not be 
 picked. Old mushrooms with brown caps are also not very safe.
