山东省烟台市2019年中考英语试卷（含小段音频）
In 1987, a small company names Huawei was started in Shenzhen. After more than 30 years of development, the company has now beaten Apple and become the world's second-largest maker of smartphones behind Korea's Samsung. It has also become the world's largest supplier(供应商) of 5G.
But recently, Huawei faced some difficulties. The U.S. government ordered a ban on its sales in America. American officials said Huawei gave information that it collected to the Chinese government. At the same time, the U. S. government planned to stop selling parts and services to Huawei, which was believed that Huawei's business would be hurt.
"We have never received such a request from the Chinese government and we have never tried to get into other systems to collect information." Ren Zhengfei, Huawei's founder and president said. "This ban from the U.S. would have little effect on our company. Huawei has enough ability to deal with the problems." Ren added.
In an interview several years ago, Ren Zhengfei said, "I started Huawei with only ￡4,000 at the beginning, but now it has become a $100 billion company. The experience was not as romantic(浪漫的) as you imagine."
Facing the ban of the U.S., Huawei is growing. Huawei's smartphone sales around the world rose 50 percent compared to a year earlier in the first three months of 2019.At the same time, sales from both Samsung and Apple fell. So far, Huawei has grown into the world's largest telecommunications equipment(电信设备) supplier, selling in17 O countries! It may beat Samsung as the largest smartphone maker in the near future.
