We've been hearing feedback from our customers about the way we handle performance for iPhones with older batteries and how we have communicated that process. We know that some of you feel Apple has let you down. We apologize. There's been a lot of misunderstanding about this issue, so we would like to clarify and let you know about some changes we're making.

First and foremost, we have never—and would never—do anything to intentionally shorten the life of any Apple product, or degrade the user experience to drive customer upgrades. Our goal has always been to create products that our customers love, and making iPhones last as long as possible is an important part of that.

All rechargeable batteries are consumable components that become less effective as their ability to hold a charge reduces. Time and the number of times a battery has been charged are not the only factors in this chemical aging process.

Device use also affects the performance of a battery over its lifespan. For example, leaving or charging a battery in a hot environment can cause a battery to age faster.

A chemically aged battery becomes less capable of delivering peak energy loads, especially in a low state of charge, which may lead to a device unexpectedly shutting itself down in some situations.

It should go without saying that we think sudden, unexpected shutdowns are unacceptable. We don't want any of our users to lose a call, miss taking a picture or have any other part of their iPhone experience interrupted if we can avoid it.

About a year ago in iOS 10.2.1, we delivered a software update that improves power management during peak workloads to avoid unexpected shutdowns on iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, and iPhone SE. With the update, iOS dynamically manages the maximum performance of some system components when needed to prevent a shutdown. While these changes may go unnoticed, in some cases users may experience longer launch times for apps and other reductions in performance.

Of course,when a chemically aged battery is replaced with a new one, iPhone performance returns to normal when operated in standard conditions.

To address our customers' concerns, to recognize their loyalty and to regain the trust of anyone who may have doubted Apple's intentions, we've decided to take the following steps:

Apple is reducing the price of an out-of-warranty iPhone battery replacement by $50—from

$79 to $29—for anyone with an iPhone 6 or later whose battery needs to be replaced, starting in late January and available worldwide through December 2018.

Early in 2018, we will issue an iOS software update with new features that give users more visibility into the health of their iPhone's battery, so they can see for themselves if its condition is affecting performance.

At Apple, our customers' trust means everything to us. We will never stop working to earn and maintain it. We are able to do the work we love only because of your faith and support—and we will never forget that or take it for granted.

第五部分 书面表达(满分25分)

请阅读下面一篇短文,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。 How long could you remember what you've learnt? In 1885, Hermann Ebbinghaus did this exact experiment—and his results are widely accepted as a general theory for how we learn and keep information. The resulting graph is called Ebbinghaus' Forgetting Curve.

This theory shows if we want to learn and remember something well, we'd better do some repetition(rote memorizing) and reviewing work in a proper way. Research has shown that reviewing at regular intervals(间隔) does

increase retention and that over time, less frequent review is needed.

Frequent review can help retention, but over time, we still tend to forget what we've learned. This is why reviewing and rote memorizing for exams can provide good results in the short term—only to lead to you forgetting everything you had quickly memorized immediately after.

The approach for long term retention is to focus on the quality of the information in memory and the meaning of the information to you. In plain English—the more relevant, meaningful

connections you can make with the new information in your mind with things you already know, the better your memory retention over time.

六、 书面表达

This passage mainly talks about two ways on how to remember new knowledge well, making proper repetition and building connections between knowledge.The Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve is also introduced as a proof.

In my understanding, on one hand, we should memorize new knowledge scientifically. According to Ebbinghaus, retention drops sharply in the first two days and then begins to level off thereafter. So the primary principle is to review frequently in the early days. If we don't start revision in the first two days, more than 70% of what we've learned will have disappeared. To be

more exact, early repetition should be made in 20 minutes after learning and then 1 hour, 9 hours, 24 hours and 48 hours. Besides, two more recalls one week and one month later are also needed for better results.

On the other hand, rather than memorize everything, we'd better relate new learning to old knowledge and personal experiences. By drawing connections, long term retention can be achieved.
