答案：文章梗概：
本文主要介绍了智能手机当前和未来的发展情况。文章第一个标题介绍了智能手机的特点和功能。第二个标题介绍了智能手机的几代网络协定技术，特别介绍了GPRS业务。第三个标题描述了智能手机灵活的界面操作及其支持的系统。第四个标题指出了智能手机的未来发展趋势及安全问题。
答案解析：
1. 由题干关键词difference between smartphones and traditional cell phones定位至第一个小标题Basics of a Smartphone下第一段首句Unlike many traditional cell phones, smartphones allow individual users to install, configure and run applications of their choosing. 也就是说，智能手机与传统手机不同，它可以让个体使用者任意安装、设定和运行应用软件。另外该段最后一句也表达了这个意思，这些信息都说明选项B)正确，至于两种手机的价格文中没有提及。
2. 由题干关键词function定位至第一个小标题Basics of a Smartphone下第二段第二句和第三段第二句，前者证明了智能手机确实具有电话接收、个人信息管理以及与电脑交流功能;而第三段最后一句却指出Currently, it's still in the trial phase of development. 这种带有信用卡功能的手机正在试验阶段。A)提到智能手机具有信用卡功能不对，故排除;B)和C)中的零售商店和银行功能文中并未提及，由此可知正确答案是D)。
3. 由题干关键词protocals定位至第二个小标题Network Protocols下第一段的第五句和第六句Between generation two and three, network engineers created protocols that are more advanced than generation two's digital technology but not so innovative that they are a truly new generation. Developers refer to these protocols as generation 2. 5.意思是说在第二和第三代智能手机之间，网络工程师们研制出比第二代数字技术更为先进的网络规程，但这套规程还不够创新成为第三代手机，开发商把这套规程成为第2.5代，因此答案A)与原文相符。
4. 由题干关键词central services on smartpone定位至第三个小标题Flexible Interfaces下第一段第一句The core services on smartphones all tie in to the idea of a multi-purpose device that can effectively multitask.可知，智能手机的核心服务就是用这种多功能装置使用户能有效地做多件事情，因此答案A)正确。
5. 由题干关键词Bluetooth和wirelessly定位至第三个小标题Flexible Interfaces下第二段第一句Systems supported by smartphones include Bluetooth, a short range, wireless radio service that allows phones to wirelessly link up with each other and with other nearby devices that support it. 智能手机支持的系统包括蓝牙，一种短距离无线传输设备，可以把电话和附近支持蓝牙传输的其他设备无限连接起来。因此答案为B)。
6. 由题干关键词Data Synchronization Working Group和synchronized with any applications定位至第三个小标题Flexible Interfaces下第四段倒数第二句。该句指出：这个项目是为了使任何种类的数据都能通过一切网络与任何硬件上的任何应用程序进行同步，只要他们的编程都符合OMA标准。故答案为D)。
7. 由题干关键词Prosumers和helpful in directing the smartphone developers定位至第四个小标题The Future of Smartphones下第一段倒数第二句As prosumers pick and choose the phones that offer the applications they want, developers can tweak designs and move towards mass production. 专业消费者，或称参与生产的消费者挑选能够提供其所需应用软件的手机时，开发商根据他们的选择改进设计，转向大规模生产。故答案为C)mass production.
8. 由题干关键词Security和executives定位至第四个标题The Future of Smartphones下第二段前二句：未来要思考的最有挑战性的问题是安全性。智能手机和掌上电脑已经在很多公司主管中流行起来，他们经常用手机来发送机密信息。题干转述的就是这两句之间的因果关系，因此可以推出与空格部分对应的是confidential information.
9. 根据题文同序原则，由题干关键词security considerations 定位至第四个标题The Future of Smartphones下倒数第二段最后一句Most security considerations either focus on particular operating systems or have more to do with user behavior than network security. 安全性考虑应该侧重特定的操作系统或者更应注意使用者行为而非网络安全。由此可以总结出题干中要转述的内容是particular operating systems or user behavior.
10. 由题干关键词next generation smartphone定位至第四个标题The Future of Smartphones下末段末句The next generation smartphone could look like a flip phone, a tablet PC, a candy bar or something no one has conceived of yet. 下一代的智能手机可能看起来像翻盖手机、轻薄的个人电脑、一块糖或者人们还没有想到的什么东西。把这些归纳起来，显然答案为前面句子中的一个词组shape or size.
