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 failure, wrath, 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 involved, people will often camouflage (掩盖) their true feelings, thus causing their friends to disregard problems that should be viewed as serious.
In the U. S. , a network of centers has been created to attempt to prevent suicides. People who are bitter, worried, 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 solution to problems is an illusion. The accomplishments of these centers, in so far as their effectiveness to reduce suicide is concerned, are minimal. However, they have helped a lot of people with a variety of problems. So, in the some-what 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 help the callers to realize that suicide is a common social problem
C、people are making efforts to help those who tend to commit suicide and in a way, they are successful
D、in the US, people who want to commit suicide call a network of centers to get help
答案
C
解析
题干意为“第三段主要告诉我们______。”第三段主要讲在美国,有一个救助网络为想要自杀的人提供志愿帮助。最后两句话表明这个救助网虽然在减少自杀发生可能上效果甚微,可是他们在帮助人们解决问题方面起的效果是积极的,所以C最符合原文意思,故选C。
