    The iPad

    1 The iPad is a tablet computer(平板电脑)designed and developed by Apple. It is particularly mar-
    keted as a platform for audio and visual media such as books , periodicals(期刊), movies , music , and games,
    as well as web content. At about 1.5 pounds(680 grams),its size and weight are between those of most con-
    temporary smartphones and laptop computers.Apple released the iPad in April 2010,and sold 3 million of the
    devices in 80 days.
    2 The iPad runs the same operating system as iPod Touch and iPhone.It can run its own applications
    as well as ones developed for iPhone.Without modification,it will only run programs approved by Apple and
    distributed via its online store.
    3 Like iPhone and iPod Touch,the iPad is controlled by a multitouch display一a break from most pre-
    vious tablet computers , which uses a pressure-triggered stylus(触控笔).The iPad uses a Wi-Fi data connec-
    tion to browse(浏览)the Internet , load and stream media, and install software. Some models also have a 3 G
    wireless data connection which can connect to GSM 3 G data networks.The device is managed and synchro-
    nized(同步)by iTunes on a personal computer via USB cable.
    4 An iPad has different features and applications one can use to execute different and interesting
    things.There are lots of iPad applications that the owner can use to enhance the way they communicate.Some
    of these are how to use social networking sites and other online options.One of the most common uses is for
    e-mail services.iPad applications like Markdown Mail allow the adoption of specific and particular options.
    They enable the owner to personalize their email accounts.
    5 While the iPad is mostly used by consumers it also has been taken up by business users.Some com-
    panies are adopting iPads in their business offices by distributing or making available iPads to employees.
    Examples of uses in the workplace include lawyers responding to clients,medical professionals accessing
    health records during patient exams,and managers approving employee requests.A survey by Frost&Sulli-
    van shows that iPad usage in workplaces is linked to the goals of increased employee productivity,reduced
    paperwork,and increased revenue.

    Credit Card Only Works When Spoken To

    A credit card that will not work unless it hears its owner's voice could become an
    important weapon in the fight against fraud(欺骗).
    The card requires users to give a spoken password that it recognizes using a built-in
    voice-recognition chip.The idea is to prevent thieves using a stolen card or fraudsters using
    someone else's credit card details to buy goods online.
    A model built by engineers at Beepcard in Santa Monica,California,represents the
    first attempt to pack a microphone,a loudspeaker,a battery and a voice-recognition chip
    into a standard-sized credit card.
    They are not quite there yet:the card is the length and width of an ordinary credit card,
    but it is still about three times as thick.The company now plans to make it thinner.
    The voice card is based on an earlier Beepcard technology designed to prevent fraud in
    online transactions.This earlier card has no microphone,but has a built-in loudspeaker
    that it uses to " squawk"(发出叫声)a voice ID signal via a computer's microphone to an
    online server.
    By verifying(证实)that the signal matches the card details,the server can establish
    that the user is not simply keying in a credit card number but actually has the card to hand.
    The ID code changes each time the card is used in a pre-ordered sequence that only the server knows.
    This prevents fraudsters recording the beeps, noting the card details and then playing
    back the audible ID when they key in the details later.But this earlier technology cannot
    prevent fraudulent use of stolen cards.The new one can.
    The new voice card also identifies itself by its ID squawk,but it will not do this until it
    has verified the legitimate(合法的)user's spoken password. Thieves will be unable to use
    the card because even if they knew the password they would have to be able to copy the
    owner's voice with a high degree of accuracy.
    The challenge for Beepcard has been to develop voice-recognition and audio circuitry
    that can be powered by a mini battery embedded(嵌入的)in a credit card. To maximize
    battery life,the electronics are only switched on when the card is being used.Pressing a
    button on the card's surface prompts it to utter "Say your password" in female voice.If the
    voice-recognition software proves that the password is authentic(真实的),it sends its ID
    squawk which the server then identifies,allowing the transaction to proceed.

    What can we learn from the last paragraph about the voice card?
    A:Only female voice passwords could be recognized.
    B:Further improvement should be made to extend battery life.
    C:There is no!imit to its application.
    D:Female customers like to use it.

    答案:B

    Paragraph 3______
    A: Online Stores
    B: Differences from iPhone
    C: Display and Data Connection
    D: Business Usage
    E: Features and Applications
    F: Operating System

    答案:C
    解析:
    段落中没有明显的段落主题词,段首句不是观点句,也不是定义句,而只是事实陈述句。该句提到“iPad使用与iPod Touch和iPhone一样的操作系统”。选项F意为 “操作系统”,因此有意识地关注该段主要意思是否与操作系统相关。该段接下来的句子提到“ iPad除了能运行自己的应用软件外,还能运行为iPhone研发的应用软件”。很明显,这个句子主要内容也涉及iPad的操作系统。接下来的句中出现了program“程序”,该词也与操作系统有关,因此判断该段主题与iPad的操作系统相关,所以答案为F。
    该段一共有四个句子,其中两个句中都出现了data connection“数据连接”, 因此该短语可能是该段主题性短语。选项C中含有data connection,因此选项C可能是答案。选项C中还出现了另一个实义词display“显示器”, display在该段中也出现了,出现在段首句中(提示:只要选项中的实义词有一个没有在其对应的段落中直接出现或间接出现<即以其近义词,反义词或家族词(同源词)的形式出现>,则该选项通常不是该段主题。反之,如果选项中的所有的实义词都在对应段落中直接或间接出现了,则该选项是该段落主题的可能性较大),由此判断C作为该段主题的可能性较大。从该段主要内容来看,段首句提到“就像 iPhone和iPad Touch那样,iPad也是由多触点显示器控制”。然后接下来的第二句和第三句都涉及到了iPad的数据连接,由此判断该段主要内容涉及iPad的显示器和数据连接,因此C 是答案。
    该段一共有六个句子,其中两句都出现了applications“应用软件”,因此该词可能是该段主题词。选项E中含有applications,因此选项E可能是答案。选项C中还出现了另一个实义词feature“特征”, feature在该段中也出现了,出现在段首句中,由此判断E作为该段主题的可能性较大。其实段首句就是该段主题句,该句意为“iPad有不同的特征和应用程序来使人们完成不同的有趣的事情”。这与E项“特征和应用程序”呼应一致,所以答案为E。
    business“商业”在该段中出现了两次,可能是该段主题词;users“用户” 在该段中也出现了两次,也可能是该段主题词;D项business usage“商业用途”直接地/间接地包含了这两个可能的段落主题词:business直接出现在段落中,usage 用途”是user “用户”的家族词,因此D可能是答案。其实该段段首句就是该段主题句,该句提到“虽然主要是普通消费者使用iPad(即主要用于娱乐),但是它一直有其商业用途”。该句意思与选项D呼应。从该段内容来看,段首提出观点:iPad有其商业用途。接下来就具体举例说明它在日常工作场所中的使用情况,例如律师,医学专家,经理们是如何使用的,并谈到了在工作场所使用iPad的目的是什么。由此可见该段主要内容涉及iPad的商业用途。所以答案为D。
    题干意为“2010年4月由苹果公司研发的iPad被……”。题干中出现了大量细节信息词/短语April 2010 , Apple,利用这些信息词/短语作为定位线索(提示:iPad是短文主题词,因此不用该词作为定位线索),在第一段中找到相关句:The iPad is a tablet com-puter(平板电脑)designed and developed by Apple. It is particularly marketed as a platform for audio and visual media such as books, periodicals(期刊),movies, music, and games, as well as web content.At about 1 .5 pounds(680 grams),its size and weight are between those of most contemporary smart phones and laptop computers.Apple released the iPad in April 2010, and sold 3 million of the devices in 80 days.相关句(第一段最后一句)意为“2010年4 月苹果公司把iPad投放市场”,由此判断答案为F项“投放”。
    题干意为“如果没有……iPad将只能使用由苹果公司批准的程序”。题干中出现了大量细节信息词programs , Apple,利用这些信息词作为定位线索,在第二段中找到相关句:The iPad runs the same operating system as iPod Touch and iPhone. It can run its own applications as well as ones developed for iPhone. Without modification,it will only run programs approved by Apple and distributed via its online store.相关句(第二段最后一句)意为 “如果不进行改装,iPad将只能运行由苹果公司批准并且通过它的网上商店发售的程序”,由此可知A项“被改装”是答案。
    题干意为“iPad的应用程序能使用户的电子邮件账户……”。题干中出现了大量细节信息短语iPad applications , owner's email accounts,利用这些信息短语作为定位线索,在第四段中找到相关句:An iPad has different features and applications one can use to execute different and interesting things. There are lots of iPad applications that the owner can use to enhance the way they communicate. Some of these are how to use social networking sites and other online options. One of the most common uses is for e-mail services. iPad appli-cations like Markdown Mail allow the adoption of specific and particular options.They enable the owner to personalize their email accounts.相关句(第四段最后一句)意为“它们(指iPad的应用程序)能使iPad用户的邮件账户具有个性化的特点”。由此可知C项“个性化的”是答案。
    题干意为“在工作场所使用iPad能使员工的工作效率……”。题干中出现了大量细节信息词/短语iPad usage , offices , employee productivity,利用这些信息词/短语作为定位线索,在第五段中找到相关句:While the iPad is mostly used by consumers it also has been taken up by business users.Some companies are adopting iPads in their business offices by distributing or making available iPads to employees.Examples of uses in the workplace in-clude lawyers responding to clients,medical professionals accessing health records during pa-tient exams,and managers approving employee requests. A survey by Frost Sullivan shows that iPad usage in workplaces(与offices呼应)is linked to the goals of increased employees productivity, reduced paperwork, and increased revenue.相关句(第五段最后一句)意为 “Frost Sullivan所做的调查显示在工作场所使用iPad与增加员工的工作效率,减少文书工作和增加公司收入的目标相关”,由此可知B项“增加”是答案。

    Smartphone Customers Up for Grab
    About 10 years ago I met an advertising executive in New York who explained the difficulty of advertising a new brand of deodorant(除臭剂)to consumers. “ Most people never change their deodorant.”I remember him saying,“They pick one brand when they are young,and stick with it for a long,long time .If it works,why switch?”
    _________(46)Once they have picked a type of phone,whether it's Apple iOS,Google An-droid or something else,it's difficult,and often expensive,to switch.Consumers become comforta-ble with the interface and design of the phone and the apps they have purchased on that platform.
    _________(47)
    That is why the race to pull in smartphone buyers is going to be especially severe over the next 18 to 24 months._________(48)there are still hundreds or millions of mobile phone owners around the world who have yet to move from a standard mobile or feature phone to its smarter, more intelligent big brother:the smartphone.
    Yet the change is happening at a much quicker pace than techinology analysts and companies originally theorized.A report issued this week by Nielsen,the market research firm,found that among Americans_________(49)55 percent opted for a smartphone.This is up from 34 percent a year ago.
    At this point,who will lead that market is not up for debate.Android has been growing at a pace no one could have imagined,even Google .The company said this week that it now activates more than 500,000 Android devices each day.
    Mr. Llamas said Apple,which changed the smartphone game in 2007 when it introduced the iPhone,potentially has a ceiling with consumers as its mobile phone is often more expensive than those of its competitors.
    Although millions of customers flock to Apple products for their beauty,simplicity and power-ful brand,many can't afford a new iPhone.This could change_________(50)as some analysts expect.“Right now the iPhone only comes in one flavor;it's not like other Apple products like the iPod where there are several different sizes,shapes and prices,”Mr. Llamas said.

    _________(49)
    A: Although it may seem that everyone owns a smartphone these days.
    B: If Apple offers a less expensive model of the iPhone later this year.
    C:.The same theory can be applied to customers who are making the switch to smartphones today.
    D: Who purchased a new mobile phone in the last three months.
    E: The smartphone race is still raging.
    F: If it works,why switch?

    答案:D
    解析:
    前段提到了因为怕麻烦,顾客不愿意轻易换除臭剂,接下来作者要讨论顾客更换手机的问题,即文章的主题,所以选C。


    空格前说“Consumers become comfortable with”,他们原有的手机,同理,手机还好用,他们又何必劳神更换呢?


    尽管目前似乎很多人都有智能手机,然而,还是有人愿意换成更为智能化的手机(后面的内容),所以选A。


    这部分做定语从句,修饰前面的“Americans”。


    条件句,即如果苹果公司今年晚些时候提供一款价格更为低廉的“iphone”,则情况会有所改变。

    Credit Card Only Works When Spoken To

    A credit card that will not work unless it hears its owner's voice could become an
    important weapon in the fight against fraud(欺骗).
    The card requires users to give a spoken password that it recognizes using a built-in
    voice-recognition chip.The idea is to prevent thieves using a stolen card or fraudsters using
    someone else's credit card details to buy goods online.
    A model built by engineers at Beepcard in Santa Monica,California,represents the
    first attempt to pack a microphone,a loudspeaker,a battery and a voice-recognition chip
    into a standard-sized credit card.
    They are not quite there yet:the card is the length and width of an ordinary credit card,
    but it is still about three times as thick.The company now plans to make it thinner.
    The voice card is based on an earlier Beepcard technology designed to prevent fraud in
    online transactions.This earlier card has no microphone,but has a built-in loudspeaker
    that it uses to " squawk"(发出叫声)a voice ID signal via a computer's microphone to an
    online server.
    By verifying(证实)that the signal matches the card details,the server can establish
    that the user is not simply keying in a credit card number but actually has the card to hand.
    The ID code changes each time the card is used in a pre-ordered sequence that only the server knows.
    This prevents fraudsters recording the beeps, noting the card details and then playing
    back the audible ID when they key in the details later.But this earlier technology cannot
    prevent fraudulent use of stolen cards.The new one can.
    The new voice card also identifies itself by its ID squawk,but it will not do this until it
    has verified the legitimate(合法的)user's spoken password. Thieves will be unable to use
    the card because even if they knew the password they would have to be able to copy the
    owner's voice with a high degree of accuracy.
    The challenge for Beepcard has been to develop voice-recognition and audio circuitry
    that can be powered by a mini battery embedded(嵌入的)in a credit card. To maximize
    battery life,the electronics are only switched on when the card is being used.Pressing a
    button on the card's surface prompts it to utter "Say your password" in female voice.If the
    voice-recognition software proves that the password is authentic(真实的),it sends its ID
    squawk which the server then identifies,allowing the transaction to proceed.

    What is the problem with the model card?
    A:It is too large.
    B:It is too thick.
    C:It can't be used in online transactions.
    D:It doesn't have a loudspeaker.

    答案:B

    1 The iPad is a tablet computer(平板电脑)designed and developed by Apple. It is par-ticularly marketed as a platform for audio and visual media such as books,periodicals(期刊),movies,music,and games,as well as web content. At about 1 .5 pounds(680 grams), its size and weight are between those of most contemporary smartphones and laptop comput-ers.Apple released the iPad in April 2010,and sold 3 million of the devices in 80 days.
    2 The iPad runs the same operating system as iPod Touch and iPhone. It can run its own applications as well as ones developed for iPhone. Without modification,it will only run pro-grams approved by Apple and distributed via its online store.
    3 Like iPhone and iPod Touch,the iPad is controlled by a multitouch display一a break from most previous tablet computers, which uses a pressure-triggered stylus(触控笔).The iPad uses a Wi-Fi data connection to browse(浏览)the Internet, load and stream media, and install software. Some models also have a 3G wireless data connection which can connect to GSM 3G data networks. The devices is managed and synchronized(同步)by iTunes on a per-sonal computer via USB cable.

    The iPad will only run programs approved by Apple if not______.
    A: modified
    B: increased
    C: personalized
    D: browsed
    E: distributed
    F: released

    答案:A
    解析:
    段落中没有明显的段落主题词,段首句不是观点句,也不是定义句,而只是事实陈述句。该句提到“iPad使用与iPod Touch和iPhone一样的操作系统”。选项F意为 “操作系统”,因此有意识地关注该段主要意思是否与操作系统相关。该段接下来的句子提到“ iPad除了能运行自己的应用软件外,还能运行为iPhone研发的应用软件”。很明显,这个句子主要内容也涉及iPad的操作系统。接下来的句中出现了program“程序”,该词也与操作系统有关,因此判断该段主题与iPad的操作系统相关,所以答案为F。
    该段一共有四个句子,其中两个句中都出现了data connection“数据连接”, 因此该短语可能是该段主题性短语。选项C中含有data connection,因此选项C可能是答案。选项C中还出现了另一个实义词display“显示器”, display在该段中也出现了,出现在段首句中(提示:只要选项中的实义词有一个没有在其对应的段落中直接出现或间接出现<即以其近义词,反义词或家族词(同源词)的形式出现>,则该选项通常不是该段主题。反之,如果选项中的所有的实义词都在对应段落中直接或间接出现了,则该选项是该段落主题的可能性较大),由此判断C作为该段主题的可能性较大。从该段主要内容来看,段首句提到“就像 iPhone和iPad Touch那样,iPad也是由多触点显示器控制”。然后接下来的第二句和第三句都涉及到了iPad的数据连接,由此判断该段主要内容涉及iPad的显示器和数据连接,因此C 是答案。
    该段一共有六个句子,其中两句都出现了applications“应用软件”,因此该词可能是该段主题词。选项E中含有applications,因此选项E可能是答案。选项C中还出现了另一个实义词feature“特征”, feature在该段中也出现了,出现在段首句中,由此判断E作为该段主题的可能性较大。其实段首句就是该段主题句,该句意为“iPad有不同的特征和应用程序来使人们完成不同的有趣的事情”。这与E项“特征和应用程序”呼应一致,所以答案为E。
    business“商业”在该段中出现了两次,可能是该段主题词;users“用户” 在该段中也出现了两次,也可能是该段主题词;D项business usage“商业用途”直接地/间接地包含了这两个可能的段落主题词:business直接出现在段落中,usage 用途”是user “用户”的家族词,因此D可能是答案。其实该段段首句就是该段主题句,该句提到“虽然主要是普通消费者使用iPad(即主要用于娱乐),但是它一直有其商业用途”。该句意思与选项D呼应。从该段内容来看,段首提出观点:iPad有其商业用途。接下来就具体举例说明它在日常工作场所中的使用情况,例如律师,医学专家,经理们是如何使用的,并谈到了在工作场所使用iPad的目的是什么。由此可见该段主要内容涉及iPad的商业用途。所以答案为D。
    题干意为“2010年4月由苹果公司研发的iPad被……”。题干中出现了大量细节信息词/短语April 2010 , Apple,利用这些信息词/短语作为定位线索(提示:iPad是短文主题词,因此不用该词作为定位线索),在第一段中找到相关句:The iPad is a tablet com-puter(平板电脑)designed and developed by Apple. It is particularly marketed as a platform for audio and visual media such as books, periodicals(期刊),movies, music, and games, as well as web content.At about 1 .5 pounds(680 grams),its size and weight are between those of most contemporary smart phones and laptop computers.Apple released the iPad in April 2010, and sold 3 million of the devices in 80 days.相关句(第一段最后一句)意为“2010年4 月苹果公司把iPad投放市场”,由此判断答案为F项“投放”。
    题干意为“如果没有……iPad将只能使用由苹果公司批准的程序”。题干中出现了大量细节信息词programs , Apple,利用这些信息词作为定位线索,在第二段中找到相关句:The iPad runs the same operating system as iPod Touch and iPhone. It can run its own applications as well as ones developed for iPhone. Without modification,it will only run programs approved by Apple and distributed via its online store.相关句(第二段最后一句)意为 “如果不进行改装,iPad将只能运行由苹果公司批准并且通过它的网上商店发售的程序”,由此可知A项“被改装”是答案。
    题干意为“iPad的应用程序能使用户的电子邮件账户……”。题干中出现了大量细节信息短语iPad applications , owner's email accounts,利用这些信息短语作为定位线索,在第四段中找到相关句:An iPad has different features and applications one can use to execute different and interesting things. There are lots of iPad applications that the owner can use to enhance the way they communicate. Some of these are how to use social networking sites and other online options. One of the most common uses is for e-mail services. iPad appli-cations like Markdown Mail allow the adoption of specific and particular options.They enable the owner to personalize their email accounts.相关句(第四段最后一句)意为“它们(指iPad的应用程序)能使iPad用户的邮件账户具有个性化的特点”。由此可知C项“个性化的”是答案。
    题干意为“在工作场所使用iPad能使员工的工作效率……”。题干中出现了大量细节信息词/短语iPad usage , offices , employee productivity,利用这些信息词/短语作为定位线索,在第五段中找到相关句:While the iPad is mostly used by consumers it also has been taken up by business users.Some companies are adopting iPads in their business offices by distributing or making available iPads to employees.Examples of uses in the workplace in-clude lawyers responding to clients,medical professionals accessing health records during pa-tient exams,and managers approving employee requests. A survey by Frost Sullivan shows that iPad usage in workplaces(与offices呼应)is linked to the goals of increased employees productivity, reduced paperwork, and increased revenue.相关句(第五段最后一句)意为 “Frost Sullivan所做的调查显示在工作场所使用iPad与增加员工的工作效率,减少文书工作和增加公司收入的目标相关”,由此可知B项“增加”是答案。
