Apple Inc plans to use a larger screen on the next-generation iPhone and has begun to place orders for the new displays from suppliers in South Korea and Japan, people familiar with the situation said on Wednesday
The new iPhone screens will measure 4 inches from corner to corner, one source said That would represent a roughly 30 percent increase in viewing area, assuming Apple keeps other dimensions proportional Apple has used a 3.5-inch screen since introducing the iPhone in 2007
Early production of the new screens has begun at three suppliers: Korea's LG Display Co Ltd, Sharp Corp and Japan Display Inc, a Japanese government-brokered merger combining the screen production of three companies
It is likely all three of the screen suppliers will get production orders from Apple, which could begin as soon as June That would allow the new iPhone to go into production as soon as August, if the company follows its own precedent in moving from orders for prototypes for key components to launch
Apple's decision to equip the next iPhone with a larger screen represents part of a competitive response to Samsung Electronics Co Ltd
Trang 7Samsung unveiled its top-of-the line Galaxy smartphone with a 4.8-inch touch-screen and a faster processor earlier this month
With consumers becoming more and more comfortable using smartphones for tasks they once performed on laptops, like watching video, other smartphone manufacturers have also moved toward bigger displays
41 How many different suppliers will most likely be involved in the production of Apple's new iPhone screens?
42 Are all the suppliers in Japan?
A It isn’t mentioned
B Yes
C No
D Yes, but there might be another supplier in Singapore
43 According to the article, who is Apple competing against?
44 Why are companies making bigger display screens?
A Because big screens are fashionable
B Because bigger screens makes dialing easier
C Because they cannot sell smaller screens
D Because consumers are using phones for things they used to do on their laptops
45 How much bigger will Apple's new screen be, compared to the old one?
A 3.5 inches B 30% C 4.5 inches D 4 inches
Part 3: Read the following article and choose the best answer (A, B, C or D) to each question (10 points)
Japan's 24-hour convenience stores, already struggling with lagging sales and growth, may soon face yet another threat - moves to limit business hours and close the stores late at night The prefecture of Saitama, which borders Tokyo, may follow
in the footsteps of the western city of Kyoto and urge convenience stores to close during late night hours in an effort to limit carbon dioxide emissions, Japanese media reported
Kyoto, a former capital, wants to persuade convenience and other 24-hour stores to close late at night so as to improve evening views of the city and cut down on energy use The Nikkei business daily said closures could last from 11 p.m to 7 a.m The move is strongly opposed by the industry, which fears a withering impact on an already troubled sector also grappling with the specter of a higher tobacco tax, which could hit overall sales
"Even if we only operate the stores for 16 hours, we can't stop the refrigerators," said Toshiro Yamaguchi, the president of Seven-Eleven Japan Co, which is owned by Seven & I Holdings Co Ltd, at a news conference in Saitama on Tuesday He said such cuts in operating hours would reduce each store's profit by 20 percent "If this happens, our current business model will lose its foundation."
Analysts said that while it is difficult to estimate the potential impact of the move without a concrete plan, their overall impression was that it was likely to be negative "This could cut profits and lead to less efficient operations and the increased loss of opportunities," said Masafumi Shoda, an analyst at Nomura Securities "But it depends on the store urban stores do better than others There are some in the countryside that are inefficient."
Some have suggested that if governments were sincere about reducing carbon emissions there were much more efficient methods, such as cutting back on the huge number of automatic vending machines
46 Which Japanese city was the first to try to limit convenience store hours?
A Saitama B Tokyo C Sapporo D Kyoto
47 What's the main goal behind the proposal?
A To sell more tobacco products
B To give employees more free time
C To limit carbon dioxide emissions
D To sell more nicotin products
48 How's the convenience store sector doing in Japan?
A It's doing great Business is booming B The article doesn't say
C Not very well D It is popular over the country
49 According to the article, which convenience stores are generally more successful?
A The ones that sell alcohol B The ones in big cities
C The ones that sell tobacco D The ones in the countryside
50 According to the convenience store industry, what impact would closing for the night have on the earnings of a typical store?
A It could cause a 10% increase in sales
Trang 8B Its effect would be minimal People would simply shop earlier.
C It could change customers’ shopping habits
D It could cause a 20% decrease in profits
