Passage 2
Let’s be frank: college can be tough. According to a 2007 study by the American College Health Association, 43 percent of students reported having felt “so depressed it was difficult to function” at least once in the prior year. Other studies, based on student surveys, suggest that one in five undergraduates reported having an eating disorder, one in six had deliberately cut or burned himself and one in 10 had considered suicide.
Given those numbers, it’s deeply troubling that in 2007 just 8.5 percent of students used their college’s counseling services. In other words, students were more likely to consider killing themselves than to seek help. “After Virginia Tech, students feel more afraid to discuss mental-health problems,” says Alison Malmon, the founder of Active Minds, a national group that promotes mental-health awareness on campus. “They think they’ll be labeled as the crazy kid who’ll shoot up the school.”
Counselors say that while they do keep an eye out for students who might pose a risk to others, the overwhelming majority of their patients are no threat to anyone but themselves. “The things that make it into the media aren’t people’s everyday struggles,” says Gregory Eells, head of Cornell’s counseling service and president of the Association for University and College Counseling Center Directors. “We need to let students know that seeking treatment is a strong, smart thing. “
Counseling services must look for new ways to reach out to troubled students. NYU freshmen are treated annually to a “reality show,” in which NYU student actors perform skits on topics from depression to drug abuse. At Harvard, students can win iPods for attending mental-health screening sessions and are invited to “pajama party” panels, where flannel-clad counselors dispense milk and cookies along with advice about the importance of sleep. “There’s still a high level of stigma,” says Richard Kadison, head of Harvard’s mental-health services. “We’re trying to find creative ways of getting the message out.”
Many campuses also offer online services allowing students to complete informal diagnostic quizzes away from the prying eyes of their peers. “You take it in the privacy of your own dorm room—not at some event where a bunch of other students might be watching you,” says Katherine Cruise, a director of Screening for Mental Health, a nonprofit that serves about 500 campuses. The results are confidential, but can help nudge students toward counseling services.
Still, students and counselors agree that the most effective outreach programs are those led by students themselves. “It’s different when you hear something from another student,” says Semmie Kim, a neuro-science major who founded MIT’s chapter of Active Minds in 2007. She’s held events like a bubble-wrap stomp to help students vent pre-exam stress, but says her group’s most important role is to provide troubled peers with a sympathetic ear. “We want to make students realize they’re not alone,” she says. College will always be tough, but there’s no need to suffer in silence.

【答案解析】
1. D 事实细节题。根据题干提示定位至前两段。由第一段末句中的比例可知考虑自杀的学生比例最小为1/10，接着在第二段中just 8.5 percent of students used their college’s counseling services…students were more likely to consider killing themselves than to seek help.可知寻求咨询的比例比考虑自杀的学生还要低，即他们最不可能去心理咨询，故答案是D。
2. B 事实细节题。本题要根据文章写作思路和文章结构整体把握。本文首先提出有心理健康问题的学生因害怕被当做是异类而很少去进行心理咨询，然后说专家想努力让学生认识到心理咨询是有效、明智的选择，最后讲到学校为了帮助有困难的学生而采取的种种措施。由此可见，心理咨询服务面临的**挑战是如何让更多的有困难的学生勇于向其求助，故答案是B；A、C和D叙述均与文中不符，排除。
3. C 推理判断题。由题干信息The most effective way可定位至最后一段。本段第一句…the most effective outreach programs are those led by students themselves.可知C正确；A、B、D所提到的都是解决大学生心理健康问题的有效方法，但与题意不符，故排除。
4. D 推理判断题。本题要注意对全篇的把握。：本文首先介绍了有心理健康问题的学生因怕被人视为另类而很少进行心理咨询；然后指明专家们努力让学生认识到心理咨询是有效、明智的选择；最后提出了许多有效的解决办法，证明心理问题是可以通过咨询寻求帮助得以解决的。因此，再结合最后一句College will always be tough, but there’s no need to suffer in silence.可以推知，在将来学生会向心理咨询寻求帮助，故D正确。
5. A 推理判断题。由本文的首段college can be tough.然后讲到学生由此而产生的各种焦虑状态，可初步判断造成大学生心理健康问题“最原始的”原因是college can be tough.；然后再由本文末句College will always be tough, but there’s no need to suffer in silence.可以确定，正确答案是A；B与students were more likely to consider killing themselves than to seek help不符；由第一段末句可知C是学生不愿意去进行心理咨询的原因；D是大学生心理健康出问题之后的结果，故都不符合题意，可排除。
