　　Thoughts of suicide haunted Anita Rutnam long before she arrived at Syracuse University. She had a historyof mental illness and had even attempted to kill herself. During her junior year of college, she tried again. On a February morning in 1998, just days after a campus counselor recommended she be hospitalized for her suicidal tendencies, Rutnam threw herself off the eighth floor of a Syracuse dormitory.

　　Miraculously, she survived. But three years later, Rutnam still feels the effects of that day. She has notbeen able to finish college and is suing her former school for malpractice. Her suit asserts that, given the campus counselor's advice, school officials should have done more to prevent her suicide attempt.

　　This incident and others have thrown a spotlight on an issue that is causing growing concern in dorm roomsand students center. Are colleges providing adequate care for students who may be struggling with a range of mental illnesses? In the Syracuse cases, a spokesman for the school contends, "The University tried repeatedly to help Anita, and we felt that they acted appropriately." But lawyers are busy there and elsewhere.

　　After accidents, suicide is the second biggest killer of kids in college. And while the number of studentswho kill themselves on campus is no higher than that of 18-to-24-year-olds in the general population, a series of sensational incidents has raised the question of whether troubled students are getting proper attention.

　　So what are the schools' responsibilities to at-risk students, particularly those who may be genetically predisposed (易患……病的)to mental illness? College can be a breeding ground for Psychiatric problems. Poor eating habits and irregular sleeping patterns-especially combined with the academic stress of college life -may all play roles in triggering mental problems. Additionally, many of the major psychiatric illnesses including depression often do not manifest themselves until the late teens or early 20s.

　　1.[D] 事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)題干定位第2段第2、3句。這兩句之間存在隱含的因果關(guān)系，第2句是因，第3句是果。只有選項D在第2句提到其他選項均未提及。

　　2.[B] 推理判斷題。本文開頭的例子所支持的現(xiàn)點在第3段第1句，同時結(jié)合suicide，此題答案為B。選項A、D的觀點有誤,選項C與本文的寫作目的無關(guān)。

　　3.[B] 事實細(xì)節(jié)題。第2段第3句中的malpractice和第4句中的虛擬語氣說明，她認(rèn)為學(xué)校沒有對她的自殺企圖采取足夠的防范措施，故選B。選項A最具干擾性，但第3句說明學(xué)校關(guān)注過她的問題，只是關(guān)注不夠，因此選項A過于絕對。選項C中的academic instructions和D中的physical disease屬于與文章無關(guān)的信息。

　　4.[A] 事實細(xì)節(jié)題。第4段倒數(shù)第2句引文是該校發(fā)言人的辯護詞，與選項A的意思一致。選項B、C為無關(guān)信息。選項D是原文最后一段的原句照搬,與此題不相關(guān)。

　　5.[C] 事實細(xì)節(jié)題。最后一段提到造成精神疾病的多種原因。第1句中的generally predisposed為先天具有之意,與選項D的內(nèi)容吻合。選項B和A分別對應(yīng)文中破折號前后的內(nèi)容。

掃描/長按二維碼關(guān)注即可順利獲得425分
