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 Kather-ine 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 neuroscience 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.
Which of the following is the most challenging for the work of counseling services?
选项
A、More and more college students suffer from mental-health problems.
B、Though many students have mental-health problem, few of them seek counseling.
C、They have to keep an eye out for students who might pose a risk to others.
D、Persuade people into believing what’s made into the media isn’t very popular.
答案
B
解析
事实细节题。本题考查对文章结构的把握和细节的理解。第一段提出很多学生有心理健康问题;第二段进行转折:虽然有很多学生有心理问题,但是进行心理咨询的寥寥无几,这是因为他们怕被视为另类;第三段说明专家们努力让学生认识到心理咨询是有效、明智的选择;下文举例说明专家们为了帮助有困难的学生而采取的种种措施。由此可见,咨询机构所作的最大努力是如何让更多的有困难的学生勇于向其求助。故答案是[B]。
