Suicide has been a cause of concern in most societies for a long time. The classical Greeks, for example, required people who wanted to kill themselves to get permission from the senate. While this law is not without humor by today’s standards, it clearly shows an awareness of the problem in times gone by. In today’s society, suicide is much more prevalent than we want to admit. Why do people try to take their own lives?
The motives for suicide can be categorized into areas such as a failure, wrath(暴怒), the need for attention, stress, and so on. However, the qualities of a person who wants to take his own life change from person to person, making it difficult to depict(描写)the typical victim. To make the problem even more confusing, people will often camouflage(掩盖)their true feelings, thus causing their friends to disregard problems that should be viewed as serious.
In theUnited States, a network of centers has been created to attempt to prevent suicides. People who are bitter, worded, or depressed are encouraged to contact workers at these centers. These workers, often trained volunteers, offer benevolent advice to the callers, trying to help the callers to see that suicide as a solutions to problems is an illusion. The accomplishments of these centers, insofar(到这个程度)as their effectiveness to reduce suicide is concerned, are minimal However, they have helped a lot of people with a wide variety of problems. So, in the somewhat amorphous(难以名状的)area of man helping his fellow man, they are certainly a success.
The third paragraph mainly tells us that( ).
选项
A、a network of centers has been quite effective in reducing suicide
B、a network of centers has been quite successful in reducing suicide
C、people are making efforts to help those who tend to commit suicide and in a way, they are successful
D、in theUnited States, people who want to commit suicide call a network of centers to get help
答案
C
解析
细节题。C的含义是说人们在努力地帮助那些想自杀的人,在某种程度上他们已经取得了一定的胜利。文章的最后一句就是这个意思。
