While Microsoft, which stole a move out of the Apple playbook, won cheers from high-end, creative-class consumers like business analysts, media designers and music producers. Microsoft launched several new products, but the big one was the Surface Studio--a 28-inch, extremely-high-resolution(分辨率) touchscreen tablet that doubles as a desktop PC screen. There’s also the Surface Dial, which can be placed on the Studio’s screen and revolved(旋转) to select menu items.
As Hayley Tsukayama remarked at The Washington Post, the Studio is really just a super-sized version of the Surface Books product that Microsoft has been selling for years. But if you’ve ever watched science fiction movies like Minority Report--where Tom Cruise seems to operate pictures and data hanging in mid-air by touching them, spreading their fingers to increase on details, and seeding files and information sliding from one folder(文件夹) to another with a click of the fingers, you can see how Microsoft is trying to show the same experience.
Meanwhile, Apple’s new products were almost like some fine promotions for its Apple TV. They boast(自夸) that the new MacBook Pros has a smaller size and more functions, and a new touchscreen bar on laptop keyboards where function keys used to be.
So what’s going on？ In many ways, Apple is focusing on attracting the average consumers who have been attracted by Microsoft. And Microsoft is focusing on targeting the high-end professionals Apple has historically been associated with. You can even see this in the companies’ ad campaigns: Microsoft’s ads stress imagination and creativity, while Apple’s commercial chief designer Jony Ive, in calm and professional British accent, explained Apple has improved the performance and convenience of its MacBooks.
So Apple is trying to control the world of devices and laptops from the top down, starting with the high-end market and moving on to appeal to a broader base of consumers. Microsoft, having already strengthened itself within the bigger low-end market, is now attempting the opposite with a bottom-up strategy. Will these succeed？ Time will tell…
What can we learn from the first paragraph？
A.Microsoft’s new products made a big hit
B.Apple’s products aim at high-end consumers
C.Apple and Microsoft developed the same products
D.The design of Microsoft’s products is original and unique
Why does the author mention the science fiction movie in Paragraph 3？A.To tell us Microsoft’s new products can be used in movies
B.To show how trendy Microsoft’s new products are
C.To show Microsoft’s new products are inspired by the movie
D.To advocate more people to see the science fiction movie
What is Paragraph 4 mainly about？ A.The features of Apple’s new products
B.The bright future of Apple’s new products
C.The reason why Apple designed the new products
D.The difference between Apple’s new products and Apple TV
What can we learn about the two companies in promotion？A.They push forward high tech development
B.They lead the development of IT industry
C.They adopt different business strategies
D.They astonish the world from time to time
听力原文： Last summer, I took my first flight from London to New York. I boarded the plane at Crayon Airfield and, from that moment on, my life was arranged for me on the trip. First, I was directed to my seat by the stewardess, and then when the plane was ready to take off, the other passengers and I were told to fasten our seat belts. A few minutes after take-off, magazines and newspapers were passed out. Because my ears hurt, I was given some gum to chew. Next, we were given instructions on what to do in case of an emergency. We were given earphones to listen to music and told that a movie would be shown after dinner. Before dinner, we were asked if we wanted a cocktail. Dinner was served on a tray, and it was attractive and delicious. We were permitted to have a refill on any beverage. After the dinner, we were shown a new Hollywood movie. When I felt cold, I was given a blanket, when I felt airsick the stewardess gave me a paper bag. Everything was done for the comfort of the passengers. When the plane landed, I was almost sorry to get off and have to start doing things for myself again.

Yet, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tries to look as rich and as successful as his neighbors.
The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American by the name of Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself: he began earning $125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. Young Momand was very proud of his riches. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. But just moving there was not enough. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horse riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.
It was like a race, but one could never finish this race because one was always trying to keep up. Momand and his wife could not do that.
The race ended for them when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They left their wealthy neighborhood and moved back to an apartment in New York City.
Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “keeping up with the Joneses”, because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.
Every city has an area where people want to live because others will think better of them if they do. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses, because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.

根据内容回答下列各题.
Not long ago, there lived in Auckland a working family who dreamed about a house of their own. Anyone then could read in the newspapers about the building companies who offered to put people into a new house 51 only a $1,000 deposit. Of course, the remainder had to be paid off with interest over a period of twenty years or so.
The worker and his wife hopefully went to one of these companies 52 this wonderful offer. And the man in the office said．“Yes, sure. You bring along $1,000 and we can 53 you with a new house.” So the worker and his wife had to work hard and in twelve months’ time they returned to the building man with $1,000. But the man in the office said, “Look, I’m sorry, 54 we’ll need $1,500 now. Costs have gone up since we saw you last, you know.”
The couple thought it over and decided it would not take very long to save the extra $500 if they worked hard. In six moths they worked 55 overtime and saved the $500 in spite of the high rent they had to pay for their flat. Back to the building man they 56 with their $1,500. But to their surprise he 57 the deposit was now $3,000. Now somewhat wiser, the worker said, “And the next time, I dare say we’ll find the deposit rising once more. How have we 58 save the extra $1,500？” “Well”, said the man, “I think we can stabilize the situation for about twelve months. By the time you come with $3,000, we will have had the house 59 for you.
The couple left, sad at heart as they saw their dream house 60 . By the time they had saved the extra $1.500, no doubt the deposit would have become still higher, maybe $5,000, then $10,000 and then…!
