阅读理解。     BEIJING-Apple Inc is one step closer to beginning sales of iPad2 tablet computers with cellular  
network compatibility (兼容) for the first time in the Chinese mainland, where the consumer-electronics
giant is in the midst of an aggressive expansion.
     According to China"s Telecommunication Equipment Certification Center, a device by Apple with
third-generation high-speed wireless data capabilities was issued the network access license needed for
the company to begin official sales in China. The device, listed under model number "A1396", is
compatible with the 3G standard WCDMA, and would work with the cellular network operated by
Apple"s local iPhone partner, China Unicom (Hong Kong) Ltd.
       China Unicom declined  to comment.
       Apple already offers the 3G iPad2 in Hong Kong through its partners, but currently only offers
Wi-Fi versions of the device in the Chinese mainland. Still, consumers in China, which according to
research firm IDC surpassed  the US as the world"s largest PC market in the second quarter, have been
purchasing 3G tablets through unofficial channels.
       Separately, Apple spokeswoman Carolyn Wu said on Sept 6 that the company"s first Hong Kong
store, set to open this quarter, will be located in the city"s central shopping and business district in the
International Finance Center"s upscale (高档的) IFC mall, a commercial center and sightseeing spot
along the city"s waterfront. Wu also said that Apple is planning a new store in Shanghai later this quarter,
which will be its biggest store in China. She declined to give more details or to comment on the 3G iPad2.
       Apple currently has four full-service Apple stores in the mainland, which receive the most traffic of
any Apple stores in the world. The company otherwise relies on resellers to get its products into the
market.
       The new stores reflect Apple"s confidence in rising demand for its products such as smart phones
and tablet computers. Sales in the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan helped boost (增长) the
company"s third-quarter results, newly appointed Chief Executive Tim Cook said in July. China revenue (收益) surged (激增) six-fold to about $3.8 billion during the three months ended June 25.
       "This has been a substantial (重大) opportunity for Apple and I firmly believe that we"re just
scratching the surface right now," Cook said at the time, referring to strong sales in China. "I see an
incredible opportunity for Apple there."
       From China Daily 2011-09-081. According to the news, which of the following statements is true?      A. WCDMA is not the only 3G standard in the world.
B. Apple Inc sells its products in the market of the Chinese mainland all by its own stores.
C. The consumers in China can only get iPad2 of Wi-Fi versions.
D. Chinese mainland is the second largest PC market in this year"s second quarter.2. Which one of the following phrases can replace the underlined word in paragraph 1?A. in the interests of

7,500 younger adults, and infected one in six people in the United States since arriving last April, health
officials said on Thursday.
     Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said more
than 200,000 Americans had been hospitalized - about the same number who are affected by seasonal
flu in an entire year.
     "About 15 percent of the entire country has been infected with H1N1 influenza, or about one in six
people," Frieden told a media briefing.
"That still leaves most people not having been infected and still remaining susceptible to H1N1 influenza,
" he said.
     He said supplies of H1N1 vaccine (疫苗) had continued to improve, and some 85 million doses of
the vaccine had been made available for distribution so far, with 12 million more doses added this week.
     That is up from 73 million doses a week ago - but still far fewer than had been hoped for by this week.
     Even so, Frieden said vaccine supplies had opened up enough that states were beginning to distribute
the vaccine to the general population.
     He urged people not to be complacent about (沾沾自喜) getting the vaccine because of reports that
the current wave of H1N1 influenza is decreasing.
     "This is still a good window of opportunity to be vaccinated," he said. "Vaccination remains the most
important thing you can do to protect yourself and your family from H1N1 influenza."
     He said the seasonal flu season was beginning and it was not clear what would happen with H1N1 or
whether there would be a third wave of the virus in the spring.
     "We know that the more people who get vaccinated, the lower the likelihood will be of additional
cases or a third wave," Frieden said.
