Students aiming to enter Tsinghua University this year had better be able to swim or be prepared to learn swimming and pass a swim test since the top university will not grant bachelor’s degrees if they cannot swim.
This September, would-be freshmen at Tsinghua University will have to take swimming courses if they fail a swimming test at the beginning of their university life, and they won’t receive their degrees if they cannot swim before their graduation, according to a message at a university staff meeting days ago, the Beijing Daily reported on Monday.
Potential freshmen with chronic diseases, skin disease or hydrophobia, once examined and affirmed by medical staff, don’t need to take the required test or course.
Plans are for freshmen to take the test during their military training. In the test, students will pass the test if they can swim 50 meters, no matter whether they choose the breaststroke, butterfly, stroke, freestyle or backstroke. Those failing the test have to take a compulsory swimming course.
“Now Tsinghua University will test students in long-distance running and swimming, so students with poor sports performance will have to overcome a lot of difficulties once they enter the university,” said a student surnamed Zhang from the Second High School Attached To Beijing Normal University.
However, students don’t need to worry much, since Liu Bo, head of the Division of Sports Science and Physical Education, said relevant statistics showed that 90 percent of students can swim after taking the compulsory swimming course in their second year of university, and the remaining 10 percent will receive instruction after class provided by teachers, without paying extra tuition.
And seeing the ability to swim as a must for students to earn their degrees is not something new in Tsinghua University, as this ability was listed on its school regulations in the early 20th century.
“As early as 90 years ago, Tsinghua University required that students cannot graduate from the university or study overseas if they cannot swim, though the requirement didn’t work later on since the swimming pools at the campus could not accommodate increasingly more students” said Liu.
19．Who will not get their bachelor’s degrees of Tsinghua University
A．Students who don’t take a compulsory swimming course.
B．Students who fail a swimming test in the first year.
C．Students who swim 100 meters in the test.
D．Students who cannot swim before their graduation.
20．Students don’t need to take the swimming test or course if they have the following diseases except for _______.
A．heart disease B．skin disease C．chronic disease D．hydrophobia
21．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE
A．Students with poor sports don’t need to worry about their performance at all.
B．Students have to pay extra tuition if they receive instruction after class.
C．Students can choose any swimming style to take the test.
D．Tsinghua University has never made such a school regulation before.
22．Where is the passage probably from
A．a novel B．a news report C．science fiction D．a diary
C
People around the world know LEGOs very well. These years, the LEGO Group are trying using recycled plastic (可回收塑料) to make LEGO bricks. They aren’t ready yet, but the company says it’s making big progress.
In fact, people who often play LEGOs may know that the first LEGO brick came out in 1949. Since about 1960, LEGO bricks have been made from a kind of plastic called ABS. Sadly, it can’t really be recycled, and it takes a long time to break down.
But since 2015, LEGO has been trying to make their products (产品) more environment-friendly. Three years ago, the company began making some LEGO parts with a kind of plastic made from sugar cane (甘蔗). Recently, LEGO decided to use paper bags only. And the company has also started to make bricks by using recycled plastic.
Over the past three years, the company has tested over 250 different ways of creating LEGO bricks from recycled plastic. Now, the company has found a way to make a good 2×4 brick from PET plastic, which is softer than ABS plastic and can be found in things like bottles and clothing. The only problem is that the company should think about how to make PET plastic stronger and give it better clutch power (离合力) like ABS.
The company believes that they can find more sustainable materials (可持续材料) to make all of their main products by the year 2030. Making bricks from used PET instead of new ABS cannot only cut plastic waste, but also cut pollution by about 70%.
23．Which of the following can best describe LEGO bricks made from ABS plastic
A．Strong and firm. B．Recyclable and soft.
C．Cheap and familiar. D．Popular and new.
24．Why is LEGO working on making PET plastic bricks
A．Because the company wants to show that it’s making progress.
B．Because this has always been LEGO’s goal since its foundation.
C．Because using PET plastic bricks can reduce pollution to the earth.
D．Because PET plastic bricks are much softer and cheaper.
25．What can we learn about making PET plastic bricks
A．LEGO has found a way to make colorful PET plastic bricks.
B．It’s not necessary to put things into PET plastic to make it tough.
C．A lot of tests have been carried out and there will be more tests.
D．Children keep asking the company to replace ABS plastic bricks.
26．Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A．LEGO becomes a leading toy company
B．LEGO works to make bricks from recycled plastic
C．LEGO recycles plastic toy bricks to protect the environment
D．LEGO makes the best of ABS plastic to reduce cost
D
Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, many people have been stuck indoors. Online classes and working from home mean a lot of sitting around on your butt.
We already know that if we don’t move much, we get fatter, we get heart problems and maybe we get diabetes (糖尿病). But new studies have shown that it could hurt our mental (心理的) health too.
A study of 1020 Brazilian adults during the pandemic found that about 30% of them sat around for more than 10 hours per day. It reported that people who sat for too long often showed more symptoms of depression (抑郁的症状).
Another study looked at children. It found that each extra hour of sitting time at ages 12, 14 and 16 led to higher depression scores by age 18. Eighteen-year-old people who sat most often had depression scores 28 % higher than those who were more active.
Scientists are not sure yet about the link between too much sitting and depression. But according to Mats Hallgren from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, “Sitting for too long can slow blood flow in the body, including blood flow to the brain.” It might also affect the growth of neurons (神经细胞) in the brain. And couch potatoes might do other unhealthy things while sitting, such as snacking on junk food. All these may lead to depression.
The good news It’s easy to overcome (克服). Aaron Kandola from University College London, UK, said “all types” of movement might help, even light activity.
“It is great to exercise and play sports,” said Kandola. “But anything you can do to avoid sitting for too long will help with mood, stress and thinking clearly.” The key message is just to move more, more often.
27．What might happen if we don’t move much
A．We will be mentally healthier.
B．We will feel more energetic.
C．We will be happier.
D．We will get fatter.
28．In this study, how many Brazilian adults sat for more than 10 hours a day
A．936. B．468. C．306. D．234
29．What might “couch potatoes” refer to in Paragraph 5
A．People who don’t move very much.
B．People who love to eat potatoes on the couch.
C．People who don’t have enough blood in their bodies.
D．People whose neurons grow faster than others.
30．What can we learn from the passage
A．18-year-olds might have higher depression scores if they are more active.
B．It’s great for people to go out for sports to avoid sitting for too long.
C．Too much sitting must affect the growth of brain.
D．Watching TV for a long time will help with mood, stress and thinking clearly.

47．句意：我们开始相信，为了变得特别，我们必须比别人更好，但我们经常失望。根据“in order to be special, we have to be better than someone else”可知，这是孩子面临比较，产生的一种想法；结合所给词汇，believe“相信，认为”，符合语境；begin to do sth.表示“开始做某事”，所以此处用动词原形。故填believe。
48．句意：你不可能一直比别人好。根据前一句“There will always be someone out there who is better than we are at something.”可知，总有人更好，所以我们是不可能一直比别人更好；结合备选词汇，possible“可能的”，应填其否定形式impossible“不可能的”，形容词作表语。故填impossible。
49．句意：但我们没有意识到，我们已经拥有了改变我们内心的东西。make a difference“有影响，起作用”，为固定短语，结合备选词汇，different“不同的”，其名词为difference。故填difference。
50．句意：但我们应该提醒他们，我们每个人都有自己的独特之处。根据“But we should remind (提醒) them that each of us is special in our...way.”可知，我们每个人在用自己的方式，表明自己是特别的；结合备选词汇，own“自己的”，符合语境；in one’s own way“以某人自己的方式”。故填own。

【导语】本文讲述了电脑游戏在学生中很受欢迎，但是过多的玩电脑游戏对他们的眼睛很不好。因此建议家长和老师应该给这些孩子更多的爱和关注，应该尽最大努力让这些孩子知道一直玩电脑游戏对他们的成长不利。
51．句意：他们中的许多人在空闲时间玩电脑游戏。由空前介词of可知,此处应填代词they的宾格形式them，故填them。
52．句意：当他们玩的时候，他们不喜欢停下来休息。have a rest“休息”，固定短语。故填a。
53．句意：许多父母想说“不要再玩电脑游戏了！” want to do sth “想做某事”，此处应填动词不定式to say，故填to say。
54．句意：这个问题是怎么发生的？由实义动词happen及语境可知，句子时态是一般现在时，主语problem是单数，故应用助动词does，故填does。
55．句意：也许这些孩子只是想逃离现实世界。get away from “逃离”，固定短语，故填from。
56．句意：他们在学习上有很大的压力，在家里和学校都有很多规则。both...and... “两个都，既……又……”，故填both。
57．句意：家长和老师应该给这些孩子更多的爱和关注。根据后文“pay more attention to them”可知，此处应是give these children more love “给孩子更多的爱”，more“更多的”，符合语境，故填more。
58．句意：更重要的是，他们应该尽最大努力让这些孩子知道一直玩电脑游戏对他们的成长不利。try one’s best “尽最大努力”，此处应填形容词good的最高级best，故填best。
59．句意：更重要的是，他们应该尽最大努力让这些孩子知道一直玩电脑游戏对他们的成长不利。由从句主语“playing computer games（玩电脑游戏）”可知，动名词短语做主语被视为单数形式，结合语境，句子时态是一般现在时，故填is。
60．句意：更重要的是，学校应该为孩子们安排丰富多彩的活动，减少一些无意义的活动，这样孩子们就可以远离电脑游戏。由空前“cut out”可知，此处是“无意义的”活动，应填形容词meaningless，故填meaningless。
