BEIJING — Apple Inc is one step closer to beginning sales of iPad2 tablet computers(平板电脑)with cell-phone 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 cell-phone network operated by Apple’s local iPhone partner, China Unicom(Hong Kong)Ltd.
China Unicom refused 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 U.S. 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 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 refused 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 such as smart phones and tablet computers. Sales in the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan helped boost(增长)the 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 an important 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.”
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. The consumers in China can only get iPad2 of Wi-Fi versions.
D. Chinese mainland is the second largest PC market in this year’s second quarter．
2. How many full-service Apple stores are there in China?
A. 4.
B. 6.
C. 8.
D. Unknown.
3. By saying “we’re just scratching the surface right now”, Cook
means ________.
A. they don’t know much about China’s market
B. they will sell more products and gain more profit in China
C. they need to obtain more permission from China’s government
D. they ignored the rural market in China
答案与解析
【语篇解读】
苹果公司只有一步之遥在中国大陆销售其平板电脑，其新功能兼具有移动电话功能。
1. 答案
A
解析
根据其先在香港发行，后在大陆发行。可知其要满足当地的网络认可。在大陆要符合WCDMA(一种第三代无线通讯技术)的标准，也就是在其他地方也有当地的认定标准。
2. 答案
D
解析
由第七段“Apple currently has four full-service Apple stores in the mainland ....”可知目前在中国大陆有四家商店，而题干问的是在中国。在香港以及其他地方并没有涉及，所以答案为D项。
3. 答案
B
解析
从库克的言语中推出，苹果在中国的市场才刚刚开始，巨大的市场前景在等待他们。
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
College is one of the biggest things on a lot of high-school students’ minds. By junior year, all you think about is applying to colleges and choosing a major. Since I started eleventh grade, my mind has been constantly focused on college. I, like many others, am still undecided on my major and college choice.
4
When I arrived I saw over a hundred tables set up with brochures and pamphlets. It was a bit overwhelming. I had no idea what tables to stop at, so I selected colleges with familiar names. This wasn’t the type of searching I was planning on doing.
5
When you stop at a table, you usually see a pamphlet or two and an information card to complete.
6
I strongly encourage you to fill out as many as possible because the information you receive is valuable and helpful, including the majors offered, financial responsibilities, and some specs about the campus.
7
We all know that colleges are very expensive, and I don’t know about you, but I definitely don’t have that much money in the bank. At the fair, you receive important facts about how to get government financing and how to earn scholarships and grants.
Attending a college fair may overwhelm you at first, but you have to get used to things. Just grab as much information as possible and sort it out at home. If you know what you would like to major in, focus on the colleges that specialize in those areas.
8
Selecting a college is not just something you do overnight, it takes time and research. Your decision may affect the rest of your life, so choose wisely.
A. Here are some advice for you to follow.
B. To help out with that, I attended a college fair.
C. If not, choose colleges according to your interests and financial ability.
D. So I started to get into the swing of things.
E. If you fill these out, you will receive packets in the mail about the colleges.
F. Another great thing about college fairs is the financial aid tables.
G. Although some colleges are very famous, they may not be fit for you.
