The iPhone once was called a magical product (產品) because of it success over the years. However, now the iPhone seems to lose its attraction (吸引力).

Apple got only 84.3 billion dollars for the company’s first quarter (季度) of 2019. It’s the company’s worst sale result in the recent ten years. Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, explained that the decline (下降) was mainly because of the weaker need in China.

However, people believe that Apple itself is largely responsible (有責任的) for the decline. For example, an iPhone Xs Max, one of the company’s newest smart phones, costs 1,450 dollars in the US, while other phones usually cost no more than 500 dollars. This made people feel not so necessary to change their old phones for the newest ones.

On the other hand, Huawei, the biggest competitor (競爭者) against Apple, is always improving the technology (技術) in its phones. For example, Huawei put a triple-lens (三鏡頭) camera on its P20Pro in 2018 and a foldable (可折疊的) phone Mate X in 2019. However, Apple did worse in this part.

“It’s true that the technology in Chinese phones is getting better and better and more and more Chinese people would like to buy a Huawei phone. I’m one of them.” said FengYin, a 32-year-old engineer in China.

In fact, it’s not just Chinese customers that trust in Chinese smart phone brands (品牌). Tom from London bought his eighth Huawei phone in 2018. He also advised his 56-year-old aunt to buy one. “I wasn’t really worried about the fact that it was a Chinese brand, because we know that China is now making wonderful products with high technology.” Tom told New York Times about his Huawei phone.

Messages from Thailand

Message 1: March 24th

Hi everybody.

Greetings from Thailand! We arrived here tired but excited. This is our first trip to Asia and the people here are so friendly. All the different sights and smells make us feel like trying the food. We are looking forward to eating Thai food for dinner tonight. The owners told us about some places that we shouldn’t miss. We plan to stay here in Bangkok (曼谷) for a few days, and then travel to the north.

Message 2: March 27th

Hi, everybody.

Thailand is fantastic! The different Buddha status (佛像) are wonderful to look at. We visited Jatujak Market in Bangkok. Everything there was so colorful and we took lots of pictures. Later today we took the train to the north. We’ll stay in Chiang Mai (清邁) for four days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai (清萊). We’re going to go hiking in the mountains.

Message 3: April 4th

Hi, everybody.

Now we’re in the old capital city of Bangkok. After hiking around the mountains, it’s nice to have accommodation with electricity (電) and a shower to have a good rest! Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and tiring. From there, we took a bus to a small village in the mountains, where we met some hill tribe (部落) people who live a simple life - no electricity or telephones. They are the kindest, friendliest people I’ve ever met. Everyone smiles and says “hello”.

Message 4: April 6th

Hi, everybody.

________ I would love to stay here longer, but we’re both ready for the beach. Tomorrow we’ll take the train back to the south, and then we’re going to Phuket (普吉) Island. It has many beaches, and it’s famous for seashells. Thailand is an amazing country with so many different things - big modem cities and small traditional towns, mountains, forests and the seashores. Three weeks here isn’t enough at all!

1.The word “accommodation” in Message 3 probably means ________.

A.the sea B.a hotel C.a village D.a restaurant

2.The writer didn’t see ________ according to the message.

A.the sea B.mountains C.Buddha Status D.snow

3.Which of the following can be the missing part in Message 4?

A.Bangkok is really a wonderful city with lots to see.

B.I am looking forward to coming to Thailand again.

C.How I love the food in Chiang Mai!

D.Chiang Rai is a small place with beautiful views.
