China is likely to surpass the U.S. to become world’s largest online game market this year, according to a recent report by market research firm iResearch. China’s online game market generated revenue(总收入) of 20.8 billion yuan($3.04 billion) in 2008, up 52.2% over the previous year. Over 80% of the revenue came from big, multiplayer online games, with the rest generated from Web games and mobile games.
The overall market is expected to keep growing at an average annual rate of 20% in the coming five years. And iResearch forecasts that the Chinese online market will be worth more than 68 billion yuan by 2012, which will account for almost half of the global market by then. At present, U.S., China and Korea are the world’s top three largest online game markets, making up about 29%, 27% and 21% respectively of the global online game market, according to the report.
U.S. game companies derive a major part of their revenue from sales of games overseas. South Korea’s online game industry generates half of its revenue from games in its home market. In China, however, most of the money comes directly from its own game players. Negatively influenced by the global economic downturn, both the U.S. and Korea markets will see a drop in game exporting, iResearch estimates.
In China, the enormous base and fast growing of online gamers will further boost China’s online game industry, said the report. China is currently home to 55.5 million online game players, according to the latest stats by the China Internet Network Information Center(CNNIC). In its report, iResearch found that figures for gamers under 18 and above 40 grew at their fastest rate yet last year, though it didn’t disclose specifics.
55.The second and third paragraphs show that ________.
A.The global online game market will be worth more than 136 billion yuan in 2012.
B.China’s online game market increased by 20% in 2008.
C.China’s online game market will become 60% less in 2009.
D.US, China and Korea together account for 90% of the global online game market.
56.China’s online game industry is different from that of the US and Korea because it’s ________.
A.made up of online, Web and mobile games
B.easily affected by the global economy
C.mainly based upon its home market
D.among the three largest online game markets
57.Which of the following things is mentioned as a factor in the rapid development of China’s online game industry?
A.The rapid growth of online gamers in China.
B.A drop in game imports to China.
C.The global economic downturn.
D.The development of technology in China.
58.According to the last paragraph, which of the following is TRUE?
A.CNNC and iResearch worked together on the report.
B.Gamers under 18 were one of the age groups which grew the fastest last year.
C.At present there are 55.5 million online game providers in China.
D.The statements of CNNC and iResearch are contradictory.

China may be the world’s largest market for e-bikes, but Europe is fast catching up. The EU’s official statistics agency says the figure reached the one million e-bike mark two years ago, and sales have sharply increased since then.
When working errands (差事) around Berlin, Lutz, who usually works with horses, uses the company’s new e-bike that charges easily and has a range of 140 kilometers. “We found there was no parking spot problem or other worries. And on top of all this, we don’t pollute the environment. Petrol is also saved,” said Lutz Baddack, owner of Reitsport Baddack.
Unlike many other parts of the world, the EU does not require registration (登记) for e-bikes. Nearly half a million are expected to be sold in Germany this year, in all shapes and sizes.
It’s not just bike fans buying them. People who usually drive cars also use them occasionally,” said Stefan Gelbhaar.
Dealers say the elderly are also big customers. Sales of ordinary bicycles fell in Germany last year, but sales of e-bikes rose by eight percent. Sales figures are expected to keep rising. “In five years we will have the market share of 20 percent, maybe more,” said Marcus Kendler, owner of E-Motion. In the hillier parts, that figure has already been beyond it.
The sales of e-bikes in Germany have been much larger than those in any other country in Europe. But other countries are fast catching up. In Europe, with the various brands at the market and falling prices, e-bikes are here to stay and not just a repeated trend.
1.In Germany the sales of e-bikes _________.
A. have been the biggest in Europe
B. have been larger than in China
C. reached one million two years ago

3.From the passage we know that e-bikes are preferred by those _________.

D. who live in the hillier parts
4.It can be inferred from the passage that _________.

B. in Europe there are various brands of e-bikes on sale
C. e-bikes will replace ordinary bicycles in only five years
D. Europe will become the world’s largest market of e-bikes

As Apple tries to maintain its growth and success in China, the world's largest smart-phone market is becoming even more critical. Apple's shares(股份) fell sharply as the company's earnings for the holiday quarter through December disappointed investors.
The sales of the iPhone, which include both the iPhone 5 and older models, came in at the low end of analysts' expectations, while the company's income plan for the second quarter was below analysts' forecasts, though Apple is known to give conservative (保守的) forecasts.
Som'6 analysts have said that for Apple to regain its growth, the company.needs a more aggressive strategy for markets, or more specifically for China, where the market for smart phones has been expanding more rapidly than anywhere else. In China, demand is particularly great for inexpensive phones that run on Android(安卓) operating system, sold by many Chinese phone makers as well as South Korea's Samsung Electronics Co.
But Apple says it's already enjoying strong growth in China. "We saw big growth in iPhones,"Chief Executive Tim Cook said. He said that the company has been quickly expanding its sales channels in China, including the number of Apple stores.

Earlier this month, the Wall Street Journal reported that Apple is working on a lower-end iPhone that could launch as early as this year. But one possible challenge for Apple in China is that low-pricod Android-based phones are getting better in terms of quality. A report from CLSA in late November showed that many smart-phones sold at about 1,000 yuan ( $160) came with higher-reso-lution screens, better cameras and more powerful processors than phones at that price did a year earlier.
1.Apple's shares dropped sharply because in December__
A.the iPhone wasn't popular in China
B.its product quality was widely criticized
C.the earnings for the holiday quarter was disappointing
D.the investors were not satisfied with Apple's management
2.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Apple tends to offer a lower sales forecast.
B.China Mobile Ltd began to team up with Apple.
C.Cook is pessimistic about what Apple did in China.
D.Apple didn't take measures to develop Chinese market.
3.The author uses the report from CLSA to prove ________
A.their prices are actually lower than a year earlier
B.Apple in China has ability to deal with any problem
C.low-ended Android-based phones are progressing fast
D.the promotion of lower-end iPhone will face a challenge
4.The main purpose of the passage is to show the readers __
