Microsoft has stopped providing service for Windows XP since April 8. The computers that use the XP system are not as safe as before.
The "demise" of Windows XP will have the greatest influence on China because it has about 210 million XP users, who make up about 70.percent of the PC market in the world. Microsoft"s decision to "kill" Windows XP, a product with hundreds of millions of users, has a certain purpose to show its strong position in the operating system market.

At the same time, the "death" of XP has created opportunities for China"s IT companies to grow and develop.
In fact, shortly after Microsoft announced the “demise” of XP,some Chinese IT security(安全)providers were willing to offer safe solutions for XP users who do not change into a new system.
Information security is crucial for the IT companies, and the key to safeguarding information is the core technology, which very much depends on innovation(革新).
Although China has some well-known IT companies, it still does not have the core technology to develop an operating system. Many people are always complaining about and criticizing.  Therefore, only by having information technology and a policy that encourages innovation can China break the monopoly(垄断)of international IT giants and protect the internet security.

解析

试题分析：这篇短文主要讲述的是今年4月8号起，微软公司停止向全世界的用户提供Windows XP的服务，这对中国有很大的影响，因为中国使用XP的用户占了全世界微软用户的70%。但是中国的安全软件供应商已经做出回应，愿意给那些没有更换新系统的用户提供安全措施。只有通过信息技术，鼓励革新，中国才能打破国际互联网巨头的垄断。
小题1:根据短文第一句话Microsoft has stopped providing service for Windows XP since April 8可知，从4月8号起，微软公司已经停止了提供Windows XP服务。由此可知，这里我们应该用give up放弃，即停止做某事了。
小题2:根据短文第二段中The "demise" of Windows XP will have the greatest influence on China because it has about 210 million XP users, who make up about 70.percent of the PC market in the world可知，在中国，Windows XP的用户有2亿1千万，占世界市场的70%，由此我们可以计算，在世界上Windows XP的用户是大约3亿。故填300 million。
小题3:根据短文的最后部分Therefore, only by having information technology and a policy that encourages innovation can China break the monopoly(垄断)of international IT giants and protect the internet security可知，只有通过拥有信息技术和鼓励革新中国才能打破IT巨头的垄断，保护互联网的安全。
小题4:in fact 是一个固定的短语，意思是事实上，实际上；shortly after在……之后不久；be willing to do sth.愿意去做某事；句中who do not change into a new system 是一个定语从句，修饰名词XP users。
小题5:这篇短文主要讲述的是今年4月8号起，微软公司停止向全世界的用户提供Windows XP的服务，这对中国有很大的影响，因为中国使用XP的用户占了全世界微软用户的70%。但是中国的安全软件供应商已经做出回应，愿意给那些没有更换新系统的用户提供安全措施。
