One often has been studying for their PhD for 18 years and another two for 17 years, according to an announcement made by the university's College of Information Science and Engineering on Tuesday.The students were admitted to the college from 2002 to 2012, a list on the college's official website showed. About 78 percent of them have been studying for their PhD at the college for overa decade. The study period for doctoral students in the university is three years, however, and the maximum length of schooling is six years with suspensions included, according to the management rules of the university.Chinese universities have been seen clearing those postgraduate or PhD students who fail to graduate at the correct time in recent years. Xidian University in Xi'an of Northwest China, for example, removed 33 PhD students in August, some of whom had been studying for 15 years. Yanbian University in Northeast China's Jilin Province announced on November29, 2019, that it would delist 136 graduate students, including 14 PhD students.A staff member of the university said that some of the students left without telling the school or going through the correct procedures. The difficulties in PhD study and the improving requirements for academic achievements have been found to be the main reasons resulting in students dropping out, experts said. Yang Liu, an associate professor who graduated with a PhD four years ago from a key university in Shanghai, told the Global Times that it is not strange for some PhD students to drop out under the strict academic review process. He also said that some may be scared off by the economic pressure of long-term schooling.24. What is the permitted study period for a PhD at most?A. A decade.B. 7 years or so.C. 6 years.D. Within 3 years.25. Which of the following might be the major reason for the dropouts?A. The long term of schooling.B. The increasing requirements for study.C. The economic pressure of schooling.D. The mixed procedures for leaving universities.26. What's the best title for the text?A. The difficulties in PhD study scare off many studentsB. Students fail to graduate from their universitiesC. University in China's northeast delists over 50 PhD studentsD. Chinese University is considering clearing some PhD students27. Which word best describes the author's attitude to the universities' decision?A. Objective.B. Worried.C. Critical.D.

Today everyone at the university knows her as the “Squirrel Girl”Sophie tried bringing them food, and gradually they began to trust her. She managed to put a hat on a squirrel and take a picture. Thinking that her colleagues could do with something to lift their spirits, she started posting similar photos on Facebook. The response was greatly positive, and before long Sophie and her squirrels became an Internet sensation (轰动).Growing up in a neighborhood outside of State College, Sophie was always fond of birds andanimals around her home, but she didn‟t interact with people very much. She was later diagnosed (诊断) with Aspergers syndrome (阿斯伯格综合征), but the squirrels changed that. “The squirrels help me break the ice, because I‟ll be sitting here patting a squirrel and other people will come over and well just start like feeding the squirrels together and chatting about them,” she said, “I am a lot more outgoing.”And in case you‟ re wondering how Sophie is able to get the squirrels to do what she wants for her photos, it has a lot to do with food. For example, whenever she wants them to hold or play with something, she puts peanut butter on the prop (道具), and they‟ll grab it. In the beginning, she would throw peanuts up the trees on campus and invite the squirrels to come down and get them, but they hesitated to approach her. She had the patience to earn their trust, though.This year, Sophie is graduating with a degree in English and wildlife sciences. She wants to be a science writer and educate people on how to preserve the environment. As for her furry friends, Sophie plans to stay in the area and visit them as often as she can.28. What can we infer from the passage?A. Sophie was fonder of squirrels than any other animals.B. Sophie is known as the “Squirrel Girl” in the community.C. Sophie and squirrels received great attention on the Internet.D. Sophie wishes to educate people on how to protect the animals.29. What can we learn about Sophie according to paragraph 3?A. She got lots of friends due to squirrels.B. She lived in the far countryside when young.C. She used to be a popular girl in her childhood.D. She was more outgoing by making friends with squirrels.30. How did Sophie manage to take photos of squirrels wearing hats?A. By dressing like squirrels.B. By putting them in cages.C. By playing music to them.D. By attracting them with food.31. What do you think of Sophie?A. Tolerant and strong.B. Patient and caring.C. Sociable and healthy.D. Traditional and hardworking.DAn easily biodegradable（可生物降解的）material that could be “part of a global answer” to single-use plastic pollution has won its inventor, British designer Lucy Hughes , the international James Dyson Award.Hughes' Marina Tex bioplastic is strong and flexible, making it a possible alternative for single-use packaging such as bags and sandwich wrappers. Its key ingredients are fish scales and skin, so it can break down in home food waste or compost bins.Hughes created Marina Tex for her final-year project in the product design course at theUniversity of Sussex. She had set out to create something using waste rather than unused materials, which led her to the UK's fishing industry. She ran more than 100 experiments to improve the bioplastic mixture, mostly using the kitchen stove in her student accommodation.The fish scales and skin removed during processing usually encl up burnt or buried in landfill. And with “about 500, 000 tonnes of such waste produced by the country's fisheries annually”, it seems possible that Marina Tex could be used largely in industrial production. The material is low-energy to produce and doesn‟t consume the earth's natural resources considering it's based on existing waste. It is also strong, boasting a higher tensile（可拉伸的）strength than the current material most commonly used for plastic bags.British inventor James Dyson, who every year selects the grand prize winner in the international student design competition that bears his name, said that the material had the potential to replace traditional single-use plastics. “Marina Tex elegantly solves two problems：the ubiquity（无处不在）of single-use plastic and fish waste.” he said. “Further research and development will ensure that Marina Tex evolves further, and I hope it becomes part of a global answer to the abundance of single-use plastic waste.”32. What do we know about Marina Tex bioplastic?A. It is used globally.B. It feels pretty hard.C. It is made from fish.D. It can break down easily.33. Why did Hughes created Marina Tex?A. To run experiments.B. To promote fishing industry.C. To create something special.D. To finish her project at the university.34. What does James think of the future of Marina Tex?A. Promising.B. Uncertain.C. Costly.D. Dark.35. Which of the following should be the best title for the text?A. Existing Fish WasteB. Ways to Fight Plastic PollutionC. New Bioplastic Made from Fish WasteD.
