(A)
Which tablet computer should YOU be buying? They are this year’s must… and there’s a style to suit everyone.
Best for Young Children
LeapPad Explorer 2,£68
Aimed at children between three and nine (though a nine-year-old might find it a little simple), it comes in pink or blue and with five built-in education games (you can buy more). Besides, the LeapPad does not allow access to the Internet— so it is impossible for your child to stumble across anything inappropriate.
Pros: The education games are well-designed and the built-in video camera is a fun way to play at being a film director.
Cons: Some of the games are shockingly expensive. And the power adaptor is not included.
Best for Teenagers
iPad 4thgeneration,£399~£659
The iPad is still the market leader, and for good reason. If the teenager in your house enjoys playing computer games, the latest offering from Apple is the one to choose.
Pros: No other tablets can compete with the near one million “app” (the name Apple created for specially-designed downloadable programs) available for the iPad. Simple to use, even for those who usually struggle with technology.
Cons: Considerable more expensive than most competitors.
Best for Working Parents
Microsoft Surface,£399~£559
Tablets are brilliant for leisure— but what if you want to do a bit of work? No tablet can yet compete with a full-size laptop computer, but this is the only tablet that allows you to use Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint (they are all pre-installed and included in the price) and you can buy a pretty lovely mini-keyboard for typing letters and emails, which also doubles up as the cover.
Pros:The Surface is good for watching movies— a bonus when stuck in the airport on a business trip — and surfing the Internet.
Cons:The keyboard is an expensive add-on— costing up to£109. It might be cheaper to buy a laptop (though a tablet is much smaller and lighter).
Best for Bookworms
Amazon Kindle Paperwhite,£109
Nearly all tablets let you download books. It’s a great way to take a mountainous pile of hardbacks on holiday without stuffing your suitcase.
But most tablets have a shiny screen— which can be very distracting when you’re trying to read. The Paperwhite is different: its matt screen and crisp black lettering imitate the look of words on paper brilliantly. And yet you can still read the words in the dark.
Pros: Easy on the eye, excellent battery life, 180,000 free books (if you subscribe to the Amazon Prime customer loyalty service) plus hundreds of thousands more to buy.
Cons: No TV, films, games, the Internet or camera.
21. The underlined phrase “stumble across” most probably means _______.
A. quarrel with B. compete with C. compare with D. meet with
22. Which of the following about Surface is TRUE?
A. The keyboard is not included in it. B. The keyboard can serve as a cover.
C. It is specially designed for parents. D. You cannot surf the Internet with it.
23. If you are a game lover, which tablet is likely to be your choice?
A. Amazon Kindle Paperwhite. B. LeapPad Explorer2.
C. Microsoft Surface. D. iPad 4th generation.
