Let’s not mince words; 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 themselves 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. Students feel more afraid to discuss mental-health problems. 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. Counseling services must look for new ways to reach out to troubled students and let them know that seeking treatment is a strong, smart thing. At Harvard, students can win iPods for attending mental-health screening sessions and are invited to "pajama parly" 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. The results are confidential, but can help nudge students toward counseling services. Besides, many colleges encourage parents to pitch in, whether by watching out for warning signs or by coaxing their kids to seek help. Philadelphia University now issues students’ relatives with a calendar highlighting the toughest times of the year for freshmen, while the University of Minnesota offers online workshops, where parents can learn about conditions such as anxiety and Asperger’s syndrome.
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. "
According to Para. 2,few troubled students turn to counselors for help because they______.
选项
A、will be asked to leave school
B、will receive many screening tests
C、are afraid to be laughed at by peers
D、will pay more for counseling services
答案
C
解析
细节题。根据题干提示定位至第二段。该段前两句提到只有少数学生接受了大学心理健康咨询服务,学生们宁愿考虑自杀也不愿寻求帮助。接下来作者指出学生们不敢谈论心理健康问题,是因为他们担心如果进行咨询,别人就会认为他们有病,这样他们会成为学校里受关注的焦点。也就是说,学生们担心受到他人的嘲笑,故选项[C]为正确答案。
