BEIJING—Apple Inc is one step closer to beginning sales of iPad2 tablet computers with cellular (手机) network compatibility (兼容) for the first time in the Chinese mainland, where the consumer-electronics giant is in the midst of an aggressive expansion.According to China’s Telecommunication Equipment Certification Center, a device by Apple with third-generation high-speed wireless data capabilities was issued the network access license needed for the company to begin official sales in China. The device, listed under model number “A1396”, is compatible with the 3G standard WCDMA, and would work with the cellular network operated by Apple’s local iPhone partner, China Unicom (Hong Kong) Ltd.China Unicom declined(谢绝)to comment.Apple already offers the 3G iPad2 in Hong Kong through its partners, but currently only offers Wi-Fi versions of the device in the Chinese mainland. Still, consumers in China, which according to research firm IDC surpassed(超过)the US a s the world’s largest PC market in the second quarter, have been purchasing 3G tablets through unofficial channels.Separately, Apple spokeswoman Carolyn Wu said Sept 6 that the company’s first Hong Kong store, set to open this quarter, will be located in the city’s central shopping and business district in the International Finance Center’s upscale(高档的)IFC mall, a commercial center and sightseeing spot along the city’s waterfront. Wu also said that Apple is planning a new store in Shanghai later this quarter, which will be its biggest store in China. She declined to give more details or to comment on the 3G iPad2.Apple currently has four full-service Apple stores in the mainland, which receive the most traffic of any Apple stores in the world. The company otherwise relies on resellers to get its products into the market.The new stores reflect Apple’s confidence in rising demand for its products suchas smart phones and tablet computers.Sales in the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan helped boost(增长)th e company’s third-quarter results, newly appointed Chief Executive Tim Cook said in July.China revenue(收益)surged(激增)six-fold to about $3.8 billion during the three months ended June 25.“This has been a substantial(重大)opportunity for Apple and I firmly believe that we’re just scratching the surface right now,” Cook said at the time, referring to strong sales in China. “I see an incredible opportunity for Apple there.”From China Daily 2011-09-08【1】 According to the news, which of the following statements is true?A. WCDMA is not the only 3G standard in the world.B. Apple Inc sells its products in the market of the Chinese mainland all by its own stores.C.

Chinese mainland is the second la rgest PC market in this year’s second quarter.【2】How many full-service Apple stores in China?A. 4.B. 6. C. 8.D. Unknown.【3】What’s the probable meaning of “six-fold” in the last but one paragraph?A. one-sixth B. six times C.60 percent D. 2times【4】Cook said “we’re just scratching the surface right now” because ________.A.they don’t know much about China’s marketB. they will sell more products and gain more profit in ChinaC.they need to obtain more permission from China’s gove rnmentD. they ignored the rural market in China社会生活类阅读理解。
Some people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know?Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers areexpensive, many books are printed today as paperbacks (平装本), which are quite cheap.A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia (百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books, science textbooks, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets.1. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. TV programs are a chief provider of knowledgeB. cinemas are the best choice in getting informationC. reading is a cheap way of learning and having funD. newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself2. What does the sentence“Television has not killed reading, however”underlined in the second paragraph suggest?A. People only need reading, though.B. Reading is still necessary today.C. Reading is more fun that television.D. Watching television doesn’t help reading.3. Which of the following is mainly discussed in the last paragraph?A. Types of books.B. Kinds of dictionaries.C. Lists of history books.D. Collections of stories and poems.4. What can we learn from the passage?A. Fewer and fewer people will buy books.B. A good dictionary should be kept in every home.C. Books with hard covers sell better than paperbacks.D. More people like TV programs about famous men.【参考答案】27.CBAB社会生活类阅读理解。

The first visit to a foreign country that I can remember was when I was about seven years old. We lived about 5 miles away from the Canadian border(边界). My family and I went to Parc Safari, Quebec, a wonderful place that has animals and rides. We drove down a nice long road. My sister and I sat in the back of the car, and it was a hatchback(有仓门式后背的汽车) so we opened it up. I remember feeding the animals snacks we had bought for ourselves.When we arrived, there were not monkeys because they had escaped and had not been found. I remember thinking to myself, how cool it would be to see a monkey in our backyard.Even though the monkeys were not there it was still so much fun. When we reached the area that had camels, giraffes and other animals, I remember one of the camels reached into the car to get our snacks. However, we were a little gross out because the camels seemed to froth(吐白沫) at the mouth and we had camel slobber(口水) all over the car and us.It was one of the best family vacations that I can remember. It was not too far from home, it was in a different country and it was with my family. I cannot remember if we went on the rides or not but seeing many animals was a great time. Now I am grown up and have a son, and I am planning to go there again. He is 7 years old and I think he is at a great age to enjoy a trip like this.

Last week, we explained that the planet Mars has passed “opposition. ”It passed a point opposite the Sun. This week, we tell about the planet’s surprising motion(运动)among the stars.For thousands of years, people have recognized that planets travel among the stars. The planets generally follow the path taken by the Sun through the sky. The Sun’s path is called the ecliptic. The groups of stars along the ecliptic are called the Zodiac.The motion of the planets can be confusing at times. Everyone knows the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west. But this is caused by the turning motion of the Earth. Planets generally move from west to east.However, Mars will appear to move backward for about two months this year. This happens because the Earth is overtaking Mars on its way around the Sun. Mars began its backward, or westward, motion on May 11th, It will start moving eastward again on July 19th.Mars’ apparent motion has been a mystery to astro nomers for hundreds of years. Most early theories of the solar system argued that the Sun and planets turned around the Earth. But the sudden westward motion of Mars presented a problem. Why would Mars move west for two months when it nears “opposition”?In 1543, a Polish church worker named Nicolas Copernicus published a different theory. His theory said the Earth and planets moved around the Sun in perfectly circular orbits. Copernicus’ theory was simpler. But his Sun –centered system still did not explain the observed motion of Mars very well.Finally, a German mathematician named Johannes Kepler published a complete theory of the motion of the planets in 1619. He had carefully studied the motion of Mars for many years.Johannes Kepler discovered that the planets do not move in circular orbits around the sun. Instead, they travel in flattened orbits called ellipses. Mars’ ellipticalorbit is the cause of its unusual brightening this year and its apparent large size.During the next several weeks, you can see for yourself why the mysterious motion of Mars has caused so many people to wonder.63. From the passage we can learn that .A. the sun and planets generally travel westwardB. Kepler studied the orbit of the planets in 1619C. Copernicus’ theory well explained the motion of MarsD. the Earth’s turning motion causes the sun to rise in the east64. On July 19th Mars .A. will pass the “opposition”B. appears to change its direction againC. will begin to move westwardD. appears to change its orbit again65. Why does Mars appear to be bigger and brighter when it passes “opposition”?A. It is overtaking the earth.B. It follows the path of the sun.C. It moves in an elliptical orbit.D. It travels in a circular orbit.66. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Recent Research into MarsB. The Surprising Motion of MarsC. The Great Discovery on MarsD. The Wonderful Mystery of Marsmotion of the planets in 1619. Kepler在1619年出版了行星运动的完全理论” 可知,他的研究应该是在1619年之前,B错误;根据第六段最后一句“But his Sun –centered system still did not explain the observed motion of Mars very well.”可知,C错误;根据第三段第二、三句“Everyone knows the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west. But this is caused by the turning motion of the Earth.”可知D正确。

阅读理解专题特训16能力升级训练第26页A(2016·全国Ⅲ卷,C)If you are a fruit grower—or would like to become one—take advantage of Apple Day to see what’s around.It’s called Apple Day but in practice it’s more like Apple Month.The day itself is on October 21,but since it has caught on,events now spread out over most of October around Britain.Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see,and often taste,a wide variety of apples.To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets,it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence,such as Decio which was grown by theRomans.Although it doesn’t taste of anything special,it’s still worth a try,as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cat’s Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions.One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette,but you’ll need a warm,sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it,so it’s a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.At the events,you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions,and because these are family affairs,children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit,including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园).If you want to have a real orchard experience,try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale,near Faversham in Kent.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。

When a child is told he is “ uncool”, it can be very painful, He may say he doesn’t care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending it’s not there.Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say, “Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn’t matter!” children know that it does matter. Instead, an active way may be best. You could say, “ I’m going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school.”If a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him.

BEIJING—Apple Inc is one step closer to beginning sales of iPad2 tablet computers with cellular (手机)network compatibility (兼容)for the first time in the Chinese mainland, where the consumer-electronics giant is in the midst of an aggressive expansion.According to China's Telecommunication Equipment Certification Center,a device by Apple with third—generation high—speed wireless data capabilities was issued the network access license needed for the company to begin official sales in China. The device,listed under model number “A1396”,is compatible with the 3G standard WCDMA,and would work with the cellular network operated by Apple's local iPhone partner,China Unicom (Hong Kong)Ltd.China Unicom declined(谢绝)to comment.Apple already offers the 3G iPad2 in Hong Kong through its partners,but currently only offers Wi—Fi versions of the device in the Chinese mainland.Still,consumers in China,which according to research firm IDC surpassed(超过)the US as the world’s largest PC market in the second quarter,have been purchasing 3G tablets through unofficial channels.Separately,Apple spokeswoman Carolyn Wu said Sept 6 that the company’s first Hong Kong store, set to open this quarter,will be located in the city's central shopping and business district in theInternational Finance Center’s upscale(高档的)IFC mall,a commercial center and sightseeing spot along the city’s waterfront。

There’s a “cultu re of walking and texting” on the Utah Valley University campus, according to conversations with students, but that’s not the main reason M att Bambrough, the creative director at UVU, came up with an idea to paint a “texting lane” on a staircase leading up to the Wellness Center.According to B ambrough, it’s first and foremost a design project—the texting lane was a tongue-in-cheek(戏谑)reference to the college-wide epidemic(流行)of kids walking around with their faces buried in their iPhones.“You h ave 18–24-year-olds walking down the hall with smart phones. Y ou’re almost bound to run into someone somewhere; it’s something we’re dealing with in this day and age,” Bambrough said. “But preventing collisions isn’t the reason we did it—we did it to arouse the students’ attention. It’s meant to be there for people to look at and enjoy.”Still, when talking to Utah Valley students, it sounds like texting and walking can be quite the annoyance.Robbie Poffenberger, an assistant news editor at the UVU Review, said that most collisions he witnesses aren’t human-on-human; rather, it’s generally human-on-inanimate-object. “They walk into barriers—ch airs on the side of the hallway, or railings,” Poffenberger said, “I’m sure they’re fairly embarrassed.”1. What do we learn about the “texting lane” from the text?A. It is a special campus culture in Utah Valley University.B. It is used to encourage the campus culture.C. It is painted on a staircase leading to everywhere.D. It is popular with students in universities.2. According to Bambrough, ______.A. the “texting lane” is to attract students’ attentionB. we don’t have to face the problem in this ageC. what they did is to prevent the collisionsD. students enjoy looking at each other3. How do students feel about texting and walking?A. They are worried.B. They are annoyed.C. They are puzzled.D. They are surprised.4. What would most students run into from what Robbie said?A.
