    On Tuesday, Apple's CEO Tim Cook announced the Apple Watch. The new smart device, which is worn on the wrist, just like a normal watch, can do all the things a cell phone does--and more.

At $349, the Apple Watch is expensive. Some experts doubt that they will become as successful as smartphones. It does seem likely, though, that the device will open yet another door in personal computing. The watch is the smartest computer yet. It taps you on the wrist whenever a new message comes in. It prepares answers to questions you receive from friends. It reminds you where you parked your car. It tracks your health. It even allows you to send your heartbeat to others.

When it goes on sale early next year, it will be Apple's first item in a new category of technology--wearable computers. If the Apple Watch becomes popular, it will change the way the world interacts with computers. People may depend on the smart jewelry even more than they already depend on their phones. "It might not only be a game changer for Apple, but for the entire industry." says technology expert Daniel Ives. "A lot of major technology players around the globe are taking notes on what Apple is trying to do here."

The Apple watch is specially designed for a smaller device. An entire computer fits onto a single chip(芯片). Users will be able to scroll(滚屏)just like they would do on an iPhone. It will have a built-in speaker for alarms that users can both hear and feel. Pressing the side button brings up contacts so you can communicate with people quickly and easily. Apple Watch also introduces health and fitness apps that can help people lead healthier lives. The built- in heart rate sensor (传感器) and GPS will track calories burned and workouts.

According to Matt Vella, a writer for TIME magazine, the watch is the most exciting device since the iPad. After actually trying the watch, he says, “It sits on the wrist very naturally. You could easily forget you are wearing the Apple Watch, and you will."

1.What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph imply?

A.Apple Watch will include many new games.

B.Many game developers will pay attention to Apple Watch.

C.Apple plays an important part in the personal computing field.

D.Apple Watch will greatly influence the personal computing field.

2.The fourth paragraph mainly tells us       .

A.how the Apple Watch works

B.the small size of the Apple Watch

C.what information we can get from the Apple Watch

D.the difference between the Apple Watch and the iPhone

3.The side button on the Apple Watch is used to       .

C.build the man-machine communication D.make the health and fitness apps start working

4.What is Matt Vella's attitude towards the Apple Watch?

A.Doubtful. B.Favorable. C.Objective. D.Unbelievable.

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要

Many Chinese students have studied English for approximately ten years, but most of them cannot even speak English correctly or fluently. In my opinion, there are several obstacles(障碍)that have caused this to happen. The main obstacle is fear! Another is the habit of mentally translating from Chinese to English and then to change these thoughts into spoken words and sentences. Many of these difficulties are caused by the way Chinese people study and learn the language.

We must learn to speak as a child does. When we are learning a second language we need to remember how we learned our native language. Learning to understand and speak a language is one of the first skills a child develops. How does a child learn the language? He listens for a time and then he tries to repeat the words. Parents give great praise for the smallest effort and slightest improvement. Therefore, the child develops courage and is excited about learning. It takes a long time before he knows anything about grammar, spelling or formal sentence structures.

As for language teachers, they should avoid criticism(批评)and be very encouraging and generous with praise. Criticism or pointing out faults too often causes students to lose self-confidence and develop a fear of speaking. The best way to motivate a student is using Praise.

The most important aspect of speaking is having self-esteem. Self-esteem is how you feel about yourself. When most Chinese people are asked how their English is, or they are told their English is, or very are told their English is very good, they immediately respond by saying, ''Oh my English is very poor. ''If you say this to yourself often enough, you will believe it. When someone compliments(称赞)you, just say ''thank you ''.
