Passage 1 In sport the sexes are separate. (76) Women and men do not run or swim in the same races. Women are less strong than men. That at least is what people say. Women arc called" the weaker sex" ,or, if men want to please them, "the fair sex". But boys and girls are taught together at schools and universities.

One of them swam 400 metres in 4 minutes 21.2 seconds when she was only 16．The first "Tarzan" in films was an Olympic swimmer, Johnny Weissmuller. His fastest 400 metres was 4 minutes 59.1 seconds, which is 37.9 seconds slower than a girl 50 years later! This does not mean that women are catching men up. Conditions are very different now, and sport is much more serious. It is so serious that some women athletes are given hormone(荷尔蒙) injections. At the Olympics a doctor has to check whether the women athletes are really women or not. It seems sad that sport has such problem. Life can be very complicated when there are two separate sexes! Women are called "the weaker sex" because________.
