SECTION III. READING COMPREHENSION

Instructions: Read the following text and answer the questions. From 8 to 12.
Apple Inc plans to use a larger screen on the next-generation iPhone and has begun to
place orders for the new displays from suppliers in South Korea and Japan, people familiar
with the situation said on Wednesday.
The new iPhone screens will measure 4 inches from corner to corner, one source said.
That would represent a roughly 30 percent increase in viewing area, assuming Apple
keeps other dimensions proportional. Apple has used a 3.5-inch screen since introducing
the iPhone in 2007.
Early production of the new screens has begun at three suppliers: Korea's LG Display Co
Ltd, Sharp Corp and Japan Display Inc, a Japanese government-brokered merger
combining the screen production of three companies.
It is likely all three of the screen suppliers will get production orders from Apple, which
could begin as soon as June. That would allow the new iPhone to go into production as
soon as August, if the company follows its own precedent in moving from orders for
prototypes for key components to launch.
Apple's decision to equip the next iPhone with a larger screen represents part of a
competitive response to Samsung Electronics Co Ltd.
Samsung unveiled its top-of-the line Galaxy smartphone with a 4.8-inch touch-screen and
a faster processor earlier this month.
With consumers becoming more and more comfortable using smartphones for tasks they
once performed on laptops, like watching video, other smartphone manufacturers have
also moved toward bigger displays.

8. How many different suppliers will most likely be involved in the production of Apple's
new iPhone screens?
Three
Two
Four

9. Are all the suppliers in Japan?

Yes
No
Yes, but there might be another supplier in Singapore.

10. According to the article, who is Apple competing against?

Nokia
LG
Samsung

11. Why are companies making bigger display screens?

Because big screens are fashionable
Because consumers are using phones for things they used to do on their laptops
Because bigger screens makes dialing easier

12. How much bigger will Apple's new screen be, compared to the old one?
30%
4 inches
3.5 inches
