A．首先完成该方法的当事人
B．首先使用该方法的当事人
C．甲公司
D．由甲、乙公司协商确定的申请人
参考答案：D
解析： (1) 选项A：判断发明创造是否具备新颖性，我国未采用发明日标准，而采用“申请日标准”，与当事人实际完成发明创造的时间无关；(2) 选项C：国务院专利行政部门收到专利申请文件之日为申请日，如果申请文件是邮寄的，以寄出的邮戳日为申请日。在本题中，甲、乙公司的申请日均为6月1日，甲公司没有优先权；(3) 选项BD：如果两个申请人在同一日就相同的发明创造申请专利的，由当事人自行协商确定申请人，与“使用在先”无关；只有注册商标的申请涉及“使用在先”的原则。

| My birthday was a few days ago. Now I'm 24 years old and I'm 1 with teaching. I didn't remember my birthday until the morning of the 1st. It was just like an ordinary day, no presents, no party, no cake. When I was 2 , I always felt sad that almost nobody remembered my birthday, not even my family. But now I don't 3 any more, especially this year, from my birthday to next day, not much 4 . This month I have several foreign students 5 Chinese with me. I give lessons privately, so I need to do quite a lot of work before each lesson. So far I'm getting more 6 in teaching foreigners Chinese, and I think it's a very cool job. When I was at 7 , I wanted to follow these native English speakers. They can 8 to foreign countries and get teaching jobs easily almost anywhere even though they're not real teachers. I complained Chinese people didn't have as many chances as people from the West. But now things are 9 . As China is becoming stronger, Chinese is becoming more and more 10 and maybe in the future I can get teaching jobs in foreign countries. I'll study more and get ready. | ||||
