imitated, if not copied. the minute apple crystallizes a product, everyone knows how to competethis idea that the basis of competition is set by apple and then the race is on to climb the path of improvement is unquestionablewhen apple releases a product that defines a category or dramatically changes the structure of an industry, it becomes obvious what needs to be built. but what i wonder is why everyone wants to copy apples products but nobody wants to copy being apple?i can think of two reasons. firstly, apple is not worth copying because its not successful; secondly, apples success cannot be copied because it is a magical processthere is a great deal of evidence for the first hypothesis. the idea of apple being successful is not something reflected in its stock pricebeing valued lower than the average company in the s&p（标准普尔）500 indicates that to whatever degree apple was successful in the past, its not seen by the vast majority of observers as successful in the futurewhy should one bother copying apple if it results in being punished with a low valuation? if one works really hard at innovation and then that innovation becomes commoditized（商品化）very quickly, why should one bother?when innovation practitioners are asked what makes apple successful, the answers regarding the cause of this success border on the mythical. the climax of this hypothesis is the “chief-sorcerer” theory of success which places one magician, like steve jobs, in charge of casting all the right spells（符咒）what about apples own opinion of what makes it tick? tim cook refers to a great team and integration of hardware, software and services as unique apple advantages. its a better explanationintegration is something that can take a long time, but it is possible with great efforta few companies are starting to make moves in that direction, but efforts are half-heartedthere is no “move the earth” panic to become an integrated company from samsung, google or microsoftmy own suspicion is that apple is more aware of what makes it special than it lets out however, as tim points out, its not a formulaits complex, its subtle, but its not magicits a process that requires a degree of faith and courage32when a new product of apple comes out, often it _aruins an industry dramaticallybstarts a revolution of an industrycputs itself in an unbeatable positiondis soon overtaken by imitated products33according to the passage, other companies dont “copy being apple” because _.a. apple is not a successful companyb. they have no access to relevant resourcesc. its hard to find a magician like steve jobsdbeing apple takes more than time and efforts34we can infer from para. 5 that _aother companies are dedicated to integrationbapple itself is fully aware of its unique advantagescapple will hold the leading position in this industrydother companies dont have a great team as apple does35what does the author think of tim cooks statement?aacceptable bdisappointing cunquestionable dconvincing【参考答案】bdca 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(a、b、c和d)中，选出最佳选项。 【2014高考英语二模试题】 iee lok sze was the first woman in hong kong to reach both the north and south polesin 1992 and1993，she went to
