8.Do you hope to enter Tsinghua University?If so,you'd better be able to swim or be ready to learn swimming and pass a swim test,because all the students of Tsinghua University are asked to learn how to swim from this year.Liu Bo,head of the university's sports science and physical education division,said this last Monday and this decision was most supported by Qiu Yong,president of this university.
The university will organize a swimming test for all the new students in September,and those who fail to swim at least 50meters any way they like will be asked to take a mandatory course (必修課) throughout their studies so that they are able to swim by the time they graduate,or the university won't give them a diploma (文憑),Liu said.
Many old students of this famous university had to meet the swimming challenge in its history Liang Shiqiu,the famous writer who entered Tsinghua University in 1915,once failed the swimming test before his graduation.He had to do his best at the make-up examination.Luckily his second test got a pass from the head of the Division of Sports Science and Physical Education.
Why is the university connecting swimming ability with degrees?As a living skill,swimming is very important for students in the long run,since it is helpful in improving students'endurance (耐力) and it usually does less harm to joints and muscles as a water sport,said Liu Bo.
"Although Tsinghua has paid much attention to sports in its long history,fewer students are exercising in their spare time regularly,"Liu said."It's time to take serious action to ask students to exercise more to build up their bodies on campus."
