BEIJING — Rising smartphone star Xiaomi is moving upmarket and taking aim at Apple's iPhone. The Chinese maker known for low-priced phones on Thursday unveiled (发布) a new model that Chairman Jun Lei said is comparable to Apple's iPhone 6 but thinner, lighter and much cheaper. The phone starts at 2, 299 yuan ($375), less than half the 5,288 yuan ($ 865) price of an iPhone 6 in China.
Xiaomi, founded in 2010, passed South Korea's Samsung Electronics Co. in the second quarter of last year as the best-selling smartphone brand in China by number of phones sold. The company is expanding into India and other developing markets but has yet to announce plans to enter the United States or Europe.
Xiaomi "is a respected brand that already has an Apple-like following" in China, said analyst Brian Blair, who tracks mobile device makers at Rosenblatt Securities. Apple is still a relatively small player in China, selling about 45 million iPhones there last year, Blair estimates, but will continue to grow.
"Apple is very much a premium (高端的) brand," said Blair. "The company that's more at risk is Samsung, which has been losing share in that market."
Privately held (私人控股的) Xiaomi said last year's sales tripled to 61. 1 million phones and revenue (收益) more than doubled to 74. 3 billion yuan ($12.2 billion). The company, based in Beijing, recently completed a round of fundraising from investors that it said valued Xiaomi at $ 45 billion, making it one of the world's most valuable technology brands.
Xiaomi ran into legal trouble in India in December after a court blocked sales while it hears a complaint by Sweden's LM Ericcson that the Chinese company violated its patents.
In a blog post earlier this month, Lei called the case a "rite of passage" (成年礼) for a young company.
21.Which of the following statements is true?
A. Xiaomi sold more cellphones than Samsung in 2010 in China.
B. Compared to Xiaomi, Apple's iPhone 6 is thinner and lighter.
C. Low-price is Xiaomi's advantage over Apple's iPhones.
D. The company is expanding into the United States or Europe.
22.What can be inferred from the passage according to Brian Blair?
A. More than 45 million iPhones will be sold this year.
B. Xiaomi can beat Apple in the market of China.
C. He thinks Xiaomi is superior to Apple.
D. Samsung will be closed for losing share in the market.
23.How is the 5th paragraph developed?
A. By giving examples. B. By analyzing cause and effect.
C. By providing data. D. By making comparisons.
24.What's the attitude of Jun Lei towards the case of Xiaomi in India?
A. Negative. B. Satisfied. C. Positive. D. Doubtful.

B
Etymology, the study of words and word roots, may sound like the kind of thing done by boring librarians in small, dusty rooms． Yet etymologists actually have a uniquely interesting job． They are in many ways just like archaeologists （考古学家） digging up the physical history of people and events． The special aspect of etymology is that it digs up history, so to speak, through the words and phrases that are left behind．
The English language, in particular, is a great field to explore history through words As a language, English has an extraordinary number of words． This is partly due to its ability to adapt foreign words so readily． For example, " English" words such as kindergarten （from German）, croissant （from French）, and cheetah （from Hindi） have become part of the language with little or no change from their original sounds and spellings． So English-language etymologists have a vast world of words to explore．
Another enjoyable thing about etymology for most word experts is solving word mysteries（谜）． No, etymologists do not go around solving murders, like the great detective Sherlock Holmes． What these word experts solve are mysterious origins of some of our most common words
One of the biggest questions English language experts have pursued is how English came to have the phrase OK． Though it is one of the most commonly used expressions, its exact beginning is a puzzle even to this day． Even its spelling is not entirely consistent-unless you spell it Okay, it is hard even to call it a word．
Etymologists have been able to narrow OK’s origin down to a likely, although not certain, source（来源）． It became widely used around the time of Martin Van Buren's run for president in 1840． His nickname was Old Kinderhook． What troubles word experts about this explanation is that the phrase appeared in some newspapers before Van Buren became well known． It is likely that Van Buren could be called its primary source Etymologists will doubtlessly keep searching for the initial source． However, it is clear that OK’s popularity and reputation have topped those of the American president to whom it has been most clearly linked．
25.The author mentions the words like "croissant" in Paragraph 2 to indicate ．
A． words have changed a lot in the two languages
B． what English-language etymologists are exploring now
C． English has absorbed many words from other foreign languages
D． the English vocabulary is difficult to the non-English-speaking people
26.The underlined word "pursued" in Paragraph 4 means ．
A． looked upon B． dug up C． put in D． set down
27.We can learn from the passage that etymologists ．
A． discover the possible origin of words
B． help detectives to solve mysterious murders
C． write interesting stories for some newspapers
D． explore the English language as well as the recent events
28.What is the main purpose of the passage?
A． To present the history of English words
B． To explain the procedure of an etymologist's job
C． To introduce the pleasure of the study of words and word roots．
D． To teach readers how to distinguish English and non-English words

C
When I was 12, I got a part-time job on a dairy farm, milking cows. We milked 65 cows twice a day. One day, I complained to my father about having to go milk those cows, saying it was tiring. He said, you know, boy, to work is a blessing. I looked at the men who'd worked harder. I had a feeling I had been told something really important, but it took many years before it sunk in.
Back then, going to college was a rare privilege. My father told me if I'd picked something to study that I liked doing, I'd always look forward to my work. But he also added, even having a job you hate is better than not having a job at all. I wanted to be a farmer, but I joined a military program to help pay for college. And what started out as an obligation to the Army became a way of life that I stayed committed to for 37 years.
In the late 1980s, during a visit to Bangladesh, I saw a woman with her baby on her back, breaking bricks with a hammer. I asked a local officer why they weren't using a machine to make the work easier. He told me a machine would put that lady out of work. And as bad as that woman's job was, it was enough to keep a small family alive. It reminded me of my father's words: to work is a blessing.
After seeing a lot of people like that woman in Bangladesh, I've come to believe that people without jobs are not free. They're victims of crime, poor health, and depression. People who have jobs can have a home, send their kids to school, develop a sense of pride, contribute to the good of the community and even help others. When we can work, we are free. We are blessed.
29.Which can be the best title of the text?
A. My chosen way of life B. To work is a blessing
C. Why should I work D. Inspiration from a woman
30.The writer joined a military program because _______.
A. his parents forced him to do so B. he intended to find a lifetime job
C. he couldn't afford his college education D. he could travel abroad with the army
31.What does the writer intend to say through the last paragraph?
A. People without jobs could achieve more. B. Freedom is not always free for people.
C. Rich people should help those in need. D. We should feel fortunate to have a job.

D
Everyone wants to achieve true happiness in life. But the biggest factor holding most of us back is actually our own selves. The Huffington Post released a list of seven mistakes we need to let go of in order to become happier people. Let’s take a look.
1.Placing too much emphasis on fulfillment (成就感)
Those who put a lot of pressure on themselves to be happy feel more lonely on a daily basis than those who do not, according to research conducted at the University of Denver, US.
2.Keeping it all in
Keeping it all together during tough times can hurt you. Crying is the body’s emotional response to outside triggers (诱因). By suppressing it, you may be damaging your mental and physical health.
3.Looking at your smart phone all the time
Connecting with others may be the key to happiness, but a recent University of Michigan study found that the more time participants spent on social networking sites, the less happy they felt.
4.Not moving
It’s no secret that a healthy lifestyle is a big part of happiness. Something as simple as a walk can help you increase your creativity and expose you to essential vitamins.
5.Not reflecting on the past
In a 2012 study on nostalgia (怀旧) and emotion, participants reported a higher sense of physiological (生理的) comfort when they looked back on the past. Affection for heartwarming memories helps people relate their past experiences to the present in order to create a greater sense of meaning.
6.Resisting change
A study on the psychology of choices shows that the human brain naturally tries to avoid loss – but that resistance can cause stress. Whether it’s fear of the unknown or fear of losing what you currently have, the pressure to hold on to the present can harm your future life satisfaction.
7.Not being mindful
Setting aside time for meditation (沉思) allows your body to relax, cultivates (培养) an attitude of gratitude (感恩) and lowers your stress level, according to researchers at University of California, Los Angeles, US.
32.What is the main purpose of the article?
A. To inform readers of the benefits of being happy.
B. To explain why our happiness depends on our own actions.
C. To point out the things we do that prevent us from being happy.
D. To discuss some typical characteristics of happy people.
33.The underlined word “suppressing” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.
A. speaking of B. holding back
C. thinking about D. taking no notice of
34.According to the article, to be a happy person, it is important for us to ______.
A. set goals and achieve as much as we can
B. avoid recalling the past
C. do exercise in our spare time
D. spend more time on social networking sites
35.According to the article, meditation is helpful mainly because ______.
A. it increases our creativity
B. it makes us less afraid of the unknown
C. it helps us relax and thus reduce our stress
D. it allows us to relate our past experiences to the present
