Read a passage about swimming. Match the topics (61 to 65) to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
Wang: According to the official report, swimming breaststroke (蛙泳) requires more energy and strength than any other styles. Before I became a competitive swimmer, I always felt that butterfly(蝶泳) required more energy than breaststroke.
John: Why is that?
Wang: Because the butterfly, or nicknamed" the fly" for short, is the newest swimming style, and perhaps is considered the most difficult style by most swimmers. However, it does not require as much strength and energy as that of the breaststroke.
John: Are you sure?
Wang: I am pretty sure. The butterfly style evolved from breastroke. It is the most difficult style to swim, but if it’s done correctly, competitive butterfly swimming requires less energy than breaststroke.
John: The butterfly is also known as the "dolphin" because the swimmer has to move both legs up and down together like a dolphin. It is so powerful and so graceful at the same time.
Wang: But don’t forget—butterfly is also very unforgiving to mistake.
John: Why is it unforgiving?
Wang: his said that it is difficult to overcome a bad butterfly style with brute (野蛮的)strength. Breaststroke, backstroke, and front crawl(爬泳) can be swum easily even if the technique is not perfect.
John: I know butterfly is difficult to master, but I didn’t realize that it was so unforgiving. Do you know what is involved in medley(混合泳)?
Wang: A medley is a combination of four different swimming styles in one race.
John: Four styles? What are the four styles?
Wang: The four styles are swum in equal distance in this order: butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle. Freestyle here refers to any style other than backstroke, breast- stroke or butterfly. A medley can be swum as an IM...
John: What is "IM "?
Wang:" IM" refers to Individual Medley. A medley is either swum by one swimming as an IM which consists of a single swimmer doing four different strokes in one competition, or by four swimmers as a Medley Relay.
John: Is it true that the Chinese believe that if an athlete earns a silver medal instead of a gold at the Olympics, it is considered to be a failure?
Wang: Where did you get that idea?
John: A U.S. sports commentator made a remark about a Chinese silver medalist’s interview, and I came to that conclusion.
Wang: As far as I am concerned, I think even the achievement of a broze medalist is tremendous.
John: I agree.
Now match each of the topics (61~65 )to the appropriate statement.
Note: there are two extra statements.
Statements
[A] requires more energy than breastroke to a competitive swimmer.
[B] requires more energy and strength than any other styles according to the official report.
