One of the most powerful tools ever developed is the P. C., the personal computer. One of the companies important to the history of the P. C. is Apple Computer. Apple is based in Cupertino, California. Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs started-the company in nineteen-seventy-six. Mister Wozniak designed an early personal computer, the Apple One. At that time, people who wanted to work with computers often built their own, or used larger systems. Early personal computers had limited uses. Users had to write commands. This was true of the Apple One. But other Apple computers operated with a system known as a graphical user interface. Users chose from little pictures called icons.
Researchers at Xerox designed such a system. But Apple was the first to make it popular. Today most personal computers use icons. Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs tried to sell their ideas to other companies. They were rejected. But soon they found investors. Apple began to sell shares to the public in nineteen-eighty. The company became worth more than one-thousand-million dollars.
In nineteen-eighty-one, International Business Machines began to sell a personal computer that many people bought. I. B. M. was the biggest computer company in the world. But Apple was known for its creativity. In nineteen-eighty-four, it released the first Macintosh. These computers were simple to use.
Over the years, Apple gained a following of loyal users. But then lower-priced computers appeared. These used the Windows operating system made by Microsoft. Most personal computers today use Windows. Apple does not compete with makers of low-cost computers. Many of its computers are designed for special uses like video and music production. The brain of a computer is the processor. For years, Apple used processors made by Motorola. In two-thousand-and-three, Apple joined with I. B. M. to create a faster processor. But Apple still has only a small share of the computer market.
Now, one of its most popular products is the iPod. This is a small music player. It can store up to one-thousand songs. Apple says it sold more than eight-hundred-thousand iPods in the three months ending in March. Apple reported a profit of forty-six million dollars for the period. It says the iPod greatly helped sales.
Which of the following is wrong about iPod?
选项
A、It is a music player introduced by Apple in recent years.
B、It can store up to one-thousand songs.
C、It helped sales greatly.
D、It is the most popular pro. duct introduced by Apple.
答案
D
解析
这是一道细节题。考查对iPod的有关信息的理解。文中最后一段已提到“Now,one of its most popular...”iPod是近些年来苹果公司推出的一款音乐播放器,它能够存储1000首歌曲,并且销路很好。所以A ,B ,C 都是关于iPod的正确信息,只有D “它是苹果公司推出的最受欢迎的产品”在文中并未提及。
