[C] 他受到严重的精神失常的困扰，并最终精神崩溃

[D] 他深深地受到自己精神崩溃的困扰

答案：C　难度系数：☆☆☆☆

分析：推理题。根据文章第一段，在Seung事件结束后，各学校纷纷审视自己对学生精神问题的监督情况，由此可以推断，凶手是因为自己精神出了问题才酿成这起事故的。因此，选项C最为符合题意。选项A显然没有正确地指明Seung犯罪的根本原因。B也是明显错误，因为他本身就是弗吉尼亚科技学院惨案的主犯。选项D则是颠倒了因果关系，也是错误选项。

3. The change will be a challenge for many schools because _____.

[A] the number of students who declare that they are struggling with depression far exceeds the schools' estimate

[B] most of them are short of resources supplying counseling service

[C] the Legislature do not encourage them to change the present status

[D] students' mental problems are usually too subtle to manage and control

3. 对于许多学校来说，这种变化是一个挑战，这是因为 _____。

[A] 那些承认他们情绪受到压抑的学生人数远远超过了学校的估计

[B] 大多数学校十分缺乏提供咨询服务的资源

[C] 立法机构不鼓励他们改变目前的状况

[D] 一般来说，学生们的精神问题都非常微妙，很难管理和控制

答案：B　难度系数：☆☆☆

分析：细节题。第三段一开头就指出，这种变化对于许多学校来说都是一种挑战，而联系上下文可以看出，这种变化指的是要改变目前心理咨询的现状。第三段紧接着提到了一个例子，就是许多学校没有心理咨询服务。那么可以看出，主要是因为目前咨询服务十分薄弱，所以才是一个挑战。因此，选项B为正确答案。

4. The ratios of counselors to students mentioned in the fourth paragraph implies that _____.

[A] the government have not provided enough funds for mental health on campus

[B] students of the University of South Florida are not seriously mentally troubled as those of Cornell

[C] mental-health resources of University of South Florida are not so good as those of Cornell

[D] it is necessary for the University of South Florida to improve its mental-health services

4. 第四段中提到的咨询师和学生的比例意味着 _____。

[A] 政府不能为学校的心理健康提供足够的资金

[B] 南佛罗里达大学学生的心理健康存在的问题没有康奈尔大学的学生严重

[C] 南佛罗里达大学的心理健康资源没有康奈尔大学的好

[D] 南佛罗里达大学有必要改善自己的心理健康服务

答案：D　难度系数：☆

分析：推理题。根据上下文，在提出这个比例之前是提到了佛罗里达州的公立大学申请资金被立法机构驳回的情况，而后面又马上提到南佛罗里达大学顾问与学生的比例和康奈尔大学的比例作比较，可以看出南佛罗里达州大学确实需要更多的精神病医师，其服务需要改善。因此，选项D是正确答案。

5. Which one of the following measures is NOT taken by institutions to solve the problem?

[A] More counseling centers are set up in schools and the access to them is much easier.

[B] Websites are established for students to release their depression and report anonymously their own problems.

[C] More psychiatrists are available for students.

[D] Precautionary systems are launched in many universities and are given significant emphasis.

5. 下列哪项措施不是各机构为了解决该问题而采取的？

[A] 学校成立了更多的咨询中心，使学生们能够更加容易地得到相关服务。

[B] 为学生建立了网站来舒缓他们的消沉情绪，并使他们能够匿名报告他们的问题。

[C] 有更多的精神病医师可以为学生服务。

[D] 许多大学已经设立了预防系统并给予了高度的重视。

答案：B　难度系数：☆☆☆

分析：细节题。文章最后一段讲述了学校采取的一些措施。选项A，文章提到了一些学校增加了咨询办公室。选项B，文章提到的网站是供学生和教员将学术问题和行为问题放在上面的，该网站由系主任办公室、教职工、住宅管理职员、校园警察和咨询中心的代表组成的干涉小组来监控。该网站不是让学生舒缓消沉情绪的，文章中也没有提到是否匿名，因此该陈述不正确。C，也提到了这一点。D，最后一段提到了涉及整个大学体系的预警系统在许多学校都是优先的，因此，该选项也是正确的。所以，选项B为正确答案。





参考译文


弗吉尼亚科技学院4月份发生了一起惨案，Seung Hui Cho杀死了32名学生和教师，然后自杀。该惨案的教训使得全国的学院和大学都立即开始审视本校提供的心理卫生服务的范围和效果。这样做不仅是为了避免精神失常的学生再次引发惨案，也是为了应对目前学生的需求，特别是那些有饮食不规律、精神分裂症、狂躁和抑郁交替症以及消沉的学生。根据美国大学健康协会的年度调查，仅仅在15年内，消沉的大学生的比率翻了倍；去年有大约45%的学生称他们有时感觉过于压抑而无法正常生活。9%的大学生曾认真考虑过自杀。

“弗吉尼亚科技学院引发的主要问题是：你什么时候能辨认出学生有严重的问题？你会采取什么措施？你如何适时地对他进行关照？”哈佛大学心理卫生服务中心主任及《被毁坏的大学》的作者Richard Kadison说道。上周，Kadison和来自全国其他大学的精神病专家齐聚在华盛顿特区，希望可以找到满足这种需求的更好方法。

许多学校发现，变化是一个非常大的挑战。比如，大约65%的学校咨询服务中心和健康中心之间仍旧没有联系，这使得控制需要药物治疗的疾病非常困难。只有59%的学校拥有一个精神病医师。

提高专业技术所必需的资金也很难找到。弗吉尼亚科技学院惨案发生后没几天，佛罗里达公立大学的管理层就申请了350万美元资金，用于雇用更多的精神病医师和校园警官，并建立跨学科团队，以便发现有问题的学生。立法机构否决了这一申请。南佛罗里达大学顾问和学生的比例为1比3500；在康奈尔大学，每800名学生有1位顾问。专家称，家长应当在送孩子上学时考察学校的心理卫生资源，确保咨询部门知道每个学生的历史。“持续关心是非常重要的，这样可以确保学生不会有严重的问题，不会有不必要的压力和紧张。”赖特州立大学医学院精神病学主席Jerald Kay这样说。

一些带头开展行动的机构已经开始加倍努力去发现需要帮助的学生，并准备随时提供帮助。一些大学，如康奈尔和威斯康辛大学在宿舍和学院大楼中都增加了咨询办公室，使学生可以随时咨询。康奈尔大学有两个顾问，其主要工作就是与教职工交谈，以找出问题的最初迹象。伊利诺伊大学要求那些可能或试图自杀的学生参加长达四个学期的心理健康评估。涉及整个大学体系的预警系统在许多学校都是优先的。比如，在纽约州特罗伊市的Rensselaer工学院，全体教职工可以将学术或行为问题放在网站上，该网站由系主任办公室、教职工、住宅管理职员、校园警察和咨询中心的代表组成的干涉小组来监控，该小组会定期会面，以给出适当的回应。





TEXT THREE


The partygoers who gathered on a small farm outside campus were not your typical gaggle of business school students. Sure, some would soon move on to plum jobs at investment banks and oil companies, but instead of traditionally celebrating their success, they opted for a “sellout party”. The event was held by students at the University of Michigan Erb Institute, a three-year, dual-degree program between the university's business and natural resources schools. Most of the institute's students are environmental advocates first, business people second, yet see the importance of money in making a difference. They represent a small but growing cadre of M.B.A.-wielding social activists who plan to bring about change, one PowerPoint presentation at a time.

Greg Shopoff, a third-year student at the Erb Institute, studied geology at Colorado College and briefly considered going into environmental law. But he found the legal profession too slow for his tastes and opted for business school. “If you can harness the impact of business for good,” he says, “you have the potential for larger-scale change in a shorter period of time.” More students have begun thinking like Shopoff, and business schools clearly see the shift. At the Erb Institute, director Tom Lyon notes the program has grown from five new students a year to as many as 25. The sheer number of business school classes like Corporate Social Responsibility and Competitive Environmental Strategy is up across the country, and school officials say students are asking for more conferences, lectures, and workshops on social and environmental stewardship. “This generation has grown up with a much higher global awareness,” says Kriss Deiglmeier, director of the Stanford School of Business Center for Social Innovation. “They see what kind of problems we're facing and want to be engaged in solving them.”

On the hiring side of the job market, recruiters from both non- and for-profits are looking increasingly for this type of multifaceted talent. In the non-profit sector, the push makes good business sense. More money is now at stake within mission-based organizations than just a couple of years ago, and the non-profits compete more fiercely with one another for funds and with corporations for government contracts. “A decade ago, the non-profits would not have appreciated as much how useful an M.B.A. would be,” says Sharon Oster, director of the Yale School of Management Program on Social Enterprise. “Now there are more opportunities for M.B.A. grads to move into that sector.”

Corporations provide the rest of the rising demand for these students, especially as they see that environmental values can help boost the bottom line. Both companies and environmental consulting groups are hiring. Environmental Defense—a non-profit advocacy group that partnered with FedEx to promote its hybrid electric fleet and also helped McDonald's phase out Styrofoam packaging—actively seeks out multidisciplinary employees who understand environmental issues but use business acumen to address them.

The intersection between financial know-how and social responsibility is not really new—just look at the number of CEOs on the boards of the non-profits and charities. But as M.B.A. programs have stepped up, schools serve not only as the nexus between corporate America and students but also as the link between business savvy and the need for social and environmental advocacy.

1. Students at the University of Michigan Erb Institute held the party probably in order to _____.

[A] promote the three-year, dual-degree program

[B] attract the attention of investment banks and oil companies

[C] work out measures to solve environmental problems

[D] raise a fund for environmental protection

2. Greg Shopoff chose to study business rather than environmental law because _____.

[A] he was more interested in business than in legal profession

[B] he thought business was a shortcut for him to become an influential person

[C] he wanted to solve the environmental problems through business that he can make better use of

[D] he thought legal procedures can not harness the impact of business for good

3. The non-profits need to hire more M.B.A. graduates now than a decade ago because _____.

[A] there are more vacancies in the non-profits than before

[B] the non-profits are now also doing business to earn more money

[C] the non-profits need to be more efficient so as to be more competitive

[D] the non-profits have to compete with the for-profits for funds now

4. The case of Environmental Defense implies that _____.

[A] the non-profit is united with the for-profit to make common efforts in environmental protection

[B] corporations are in great need of multifaceted organizations to work with companies on environmental issues

[C] non-profit organizations are switching more attention on environmental business

[D] non-profit organizations are helping business to be more environmentally friendly through business practices

5. By this passages, the author tries to show us that _____.

[A] business world is turning its attention to integrating business with environmental issues

[B] business corporations can be united with the non-profits in environmental protection

[C] multidisciplinary students are increasingly popular in the non-profits as well as in corporations

[D] there is a trend for business students to make use of business acumen for advocating environmental protection
