9、 not think they wouldfind work that would let them pay back their loans.Students said they spoke with Columbia about the high cost of advanced arts degrees but never received areasonable answer.Education experts say the school is very wealthy,with large funds.The University,however,prefers to ask th

10、e students to pay the full cost.Kevin Carey is a higher education expert for New America,a public policy research center.He called mastersdegrees a scam“in a conversation.Charging people a ton of money to go into any artistic career is often superproblematic,he said.Castillo is an actor in New York

16、 artists to their students.D.Students should stick to their original purposes while learning.COxygen,Im sure youd agree,is pretty important for life on Earth.We breathe it in,our cells survive on it andwithout it,we hardly live.Basically,all multicellular life on Earth evolved over millions of years

17、 to make use ofoxygen.But take a deep breath,because we need to talk about Henneguya salminicola,a tiny parasite（寄生虫）containing fewer than 100 cells that lives within the muscle tissue of salmon,a large fish with silver skin and pink flesh.The strange-looking parasite does not busy itself with such

18、small matters as breathing oxygen.Nope,it seems that H.salminicola is the first multicellular animal weve found that survives without the stuff.“Aerobic respiration（有氧口乎吸）was thought to be commonly found in animals,but now we confirmed thatthis is not the case,“said Dorothee Huchon,a zoologist at Te

19、l Aviv University in Israel,in a press release.Huchon and a team of international researchers examined and sequenced（排序）all of.salmincolas genes in theirstudy,published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.They found that the parasite,which isclosely related to jellyfish,la

20、cks the DNA machinery necessary to“breathe Mt doesnt have mitochondria（线粒体）,often called the powerhouse of the cell,because they use oxygen to make energy.Its like a little factory insidealmost all cells,and DNA detectives can find mitochondrial genes during sequencing.The discovery came as somethin

21、g of an accident for the team,who were examining the genome(the complete setof genes)of the species.When they went searching for the mitochondrial genes,they came up empty-handed.Ourdiscovery shows that evolution can go in strange directions,Huchon said.Aerobic respiration is a major source ofenergy

22、,and yet we found an animal that gave up this important pathway.”Some single-celled life forms have evolved the ability to survive without oxygen and do not have mitochondria,either.Plenty of bacteria can exist without oxygen at all.Instead of oxygen,they get their energy from fernentation(发酵)or use

23、 other molecules like iron.But how H.salminicola produces energy is still unclear.Huchon suggests it could draw oxygen from the cells insalmon or it could have evolved similar methods to those of single-celled organisms which scientists have documentedin the past.28.What can we learn about Henneguya

24、 salminicola?A.It is an animal consisting of a cell.B.It can still survive without oxygen.C.It takes on a normal appearance.D.It has a longer life span than salmon.29.What is the main function of mitochondria?A.To make cells breathe fast.B.To help to produce oxygen.C.To provide energy for cells.D.To

25、 help cells absorb oxygen.30.How did Huchon probably feel about the discovery?A.Interested.B.Satisfied.C.Astonished.D.Frightened.31.What could be the most suitable title for the text?A.The natural evolution of animal cellsB.Different kinds of life forms on earthC.A research on single-celled organism

26、sD.A creature that doesnt breathe oxygenDIn these days of information overload,its never been more important to keep track of and back up your data.Theproblem is that digital storage doesnt last forever.Hard disks fail,phones tumble out of our pockets,and tablets arebeaten up by grandchildren.This i

27、s why it is important to think carefully about your back-up strategy.Online back-ups are easier,arguably.All of the big tech players have online storage you can treat like your ownhard disk.Google has Google Drive,Apple has iCloud,and Microsoft has OneDrive.All you have to do is downloadthe app for

28、service you want to use to your computer or phone.Most Cloud storage apps even have the option toautomatically upload your camera roll,so when you take new photos they511 be sent up to the Cloud as soon as youconnect to wifi.Offline storage is slightly trickier.Looking after Cloud files is Google5s

29、or Microsofts problem.But offline,figuring out what equipment to buy is something you need to figure out for yourself.The most obvious option is to buya portable USB hard drive.Just plug it into your computer and you can copy important files to it.This is definitely abetter approach than doing absol

30、utely nothing,but there5s still a problem:if your back-up drive fails,you still loseeverything.This is why if you5re serious about backing up-and you should be-I recommend the slightly pricier option ofgetting a device known as a NAS,which stands for Network Attached Storage“and is basically a mini

31、computer thatyou can plug directly into your wifi router.Some companies have devices available that contain only one hard drive,but I recommend buying one with space for at least two.This is because on most NAS models,two hard disks can worktogether to keep your files safe.Instead of appearing as se

32、parate hard disks,they can be combined using a featurecalled RAID”,standing for Redundant Array of Independent Disks”and it basically tells your NAS to treat the twohard disks inside it as though they were one drive,with the contents mirrored on both drives automatically.It meansthat if one of the t

33、wo drives goes kaput,you still have a perfectly functioning mirror copy with all your files safelystored on it.The only thing considered undesirable is that a decent NAS tends to start at around 300,and that excludesthe price of the hard disks themselves.But before you scream in horror,remember-this

34、 is for your most important files,to keep them safe.So,as annoying as it might sound,this is important.Just as you wouldnt leave your home with a risky boiler ordrive a car with faulty brakes.It5s time to do the boring but important thing and spend the money to get your databacked up-before it is to

35、o late.32.Why are online back-ups easier?A.Because all of the big tech companies offer online storage free of charge.B.Because you just need to download the Cloud storage app for service you want.C.Because it is the service providers that are to blame if your Cloud files get lost.D.Because the data

36、of your digital device is uploaded to the Cloud automatically.33.What can we learn about NAS?A.Its a device that you can plug into your computer.B.RAID is used to separate two hard disks inside NAS.C.It tends to be very costly even without hard disks.D.Most of them contain only one hard drive within

37、.34.What does the underlined word kaput”in the fourth paragraph probably mean?A.Tom.B.Broken.C.Lost.D.Shut.35.Whats the main idea of the passage?A.Strategies for backing up data.B.Solutions to information overload.C.Problems concerning digital storage.D.Reasons for keeping track of your data.第二节（共第二

39、t,and they511 take you around the world.37 A pair of suede or synthetic shoeswill offer great comfort,without a big breaking in”process.They dry fast,and arent tough on the wallet.If you5regoing for longer treks（跋涉），then you511 want footwear that offers support,comfort,weather resistance,anddurabili

40、ty.Backpacks.38 Size.For a short hike,a daypack is best.Its light,practical,and big enough to carry the essentials（youve looking for something between 15 and 35 L）.For longer hikes,look for a pack between 30-50 L with anintegrated frame（to prevent the bag from putting too much pressure on your back

41、and shoulders）.Stay hydrated（含水的）.Yes,the heatwaves of summer are probably gone for the year,but packing enoughwater is vital in any season.39 For longer treks,consider a hydration reservoir,which can carry anywhere from 0.5 to10 L.No need to search in your pack for your water bottle;just enjoy a si
