If A1 and A3 are blank:
Select A1:A4. Press Ctrl+G. Click special, blank.

Start typing a formula:
=

Then press the down arrow key. This should finish the formula and create:
=A2

Press Ctrl+Enter to apply formula to all currently selected cells.
If needed, you could then do a copy, paste special - values only.

If A1 and A3 are not blank, but you want every other line copied upward:
In helper column B, cell B1:

=IF(MOD(ROW(),2),A2,A1)

Copy down as needed.
