Only in the most (40)______ circumstances is the life span of a patent extended to alter this normal process of events.
A patent remains (41)______ public after it has terminated.

Likewise, because publication of an idea in any other form permanently (43)______ further patents on that idea, it is traditionally safe to take ideas from other areas of print. (44)____________.
Anyone closely involved in patents and inventions soon learns that most new ideas are, in fact, as old as the hills. (45)____________ that makes news and money. The basic patent for the theory of magnetic recording dates back to 1886.

选项
答案
exceptional
