Passage 1
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Have you ever wondered where Lego(乐高积木)came from? Like many great inventions,the story is not just
one of a great idea, 61 one of a ton of hard work and perseverance（毅力）.
The story started in Denmark. Ole Christiansen was a carpenter 62 was struggling with his small
business. His wife died 63 (short) after his fourth son was born. He had to work hard to support his
family alone. He started making wood toys,but they didn't sell well. He decided his toys needed a name,and he
chose 64 name"Lego".
Unfortunately, several years later, his workshop 65 (burn) to the ground. Soon,he started to make
a few plastic toys. He got the idea to create a “system" of toys that would build up kids' 66 (imagine)
and creativity. He decided to stop 67 (make) wood toys and focus only on the connected plastic toys.
Then he started to build more and more kinds of 68 (model). Each one had to be of the 69(high) quality, which can be reflected in Lego's motto —“Only the best is good enough. ”
Thanks to their perseverance, kids can enjoy Lego toys, movies, amusement parks and clothing. But none of
this would have existed at that time if they 70 (give up) when times got hard.
Passage 2
What does it take to graduate from a university? Many 71 say all you have to do is take classes and
pass the exams. Well, it requires more than it if you’re a student at Tsinghua University.
Starting this September, freshmen at the university will have to take swimming courses. If they fail a
swimming test at the beginning of their university course, they won’t receive their degree 72 they can pass
the test successfully, according to an announcement by Tsinghua University president Qiu Yong.
Exceptions 73 (allow) for students with certain physical or mental conditions, if proved by medical
staff.
Liu Bo, head of the Division of Sports Science and Physical Education, explained 74 the university is
linking swimming ability with degrees.
“As a requisite(必要的) survival skill, swimming is beneficial for students in the long run, since swimming is
helpful in improving students’ endurance and is 75 (harmful) to joints(关节) and muscles as a water sport,”
he told China Daily.
Viewing the ability 76 (swim) as a must for students is not something new to this university - it was
also a requirement in the early 20th century.
It was later dropped 77 a rising number of students and a lack of facilities. Besides Tsinghua
University, Peking University and Xiamen University have also listed swimming as a compulsory course for
students.
However, the announcement has caused a heated debate.
Some welcomed the new rule, saying it’s a necessary skill that can save lives. “Swimming is a fundamental(基
本的) skill. It’s a way to stay healthy and is lifesaving in emergency situations. I believe making 78
mandatory(强制的) is necessary,” Yuan Jiaxiang, a junior in Tsinghua’s Department of Civil Engineering, told
China Daily.
However, some said it has nothing to do with getting a degree. “It’s not reasonable to require people to be able
to swim for them to graduate,” Zheng Xiaoyu, a high school student from the Middle School Affiliated to Northern
Jiaotong University, told China Daily. “For a lot of people who grew up in inland cities, learning how to swim as an
adult will be difficult.”In fact, Chinese universities are not the only education organizations 79 encourage their students to
swim. A few colleges in the United States - including Cornell, Columbia and MIT - offer swim classes to students.
“Anything 80 (prevent) people from dying needlessly is a valuable skill,” Fred DeBruyn, director of
aquatics(水上运动) at Cornell, told The New York Times.
