    In late March,Southwest University became the first school in China to open a 24-hour hotline providing suicide-prevention counseling.   

    College suicide is a heart-breaking and argumentative topic.Chinese college students have long been the focus of public attention:their youth,education and,most importantly, bright futures make them the envy of society.

    However, in recent years,we’ve read more reports of student suicides.Perhaps that’s  simply because of society’s  attention with youth.But it could also signify the increasing troubled mental state of college students.

    Many studies have sought to find out the causes of student suicides.Not surprisingly, the top factors usually include psychological and physical sickness,emotional trouble and peer pressure. Despair about their futures is also quickly becoming a leading factor:Many students say they feel hopeless and confused about the direction of their careers in a crowded job market.   

    Thankfully, more and more universities and colleges are providing counseling services to address students’mental and psychological problems.These at least offer some comfort to students facing tough job prospects and personal difficulties.

  From appointing in-house student counselors to setting up hotlines and recruiting students to help their troubled peers.many universities are making efforts to fight student depression.There is no denying that much remains to be done,but such efforts are already working,helping students and saving lives.  

  However, the most important front in this battle lies with the students themselves.Whatever efforts school officials make,it is up to students to realize their problems and ask help.Unfortunately, many students considering suicide refuse to seek help.By shutting themselves away, they can easily fall into vicious cycles(恶性循环),becoming ever more vulnerable to.personal difficulties and the pressures of the outside world.    

    While establishing better on-campus psychological education and outreach programs are a step forward,students themselves must actively reach out for help.These dangers are a reality for every student not only those who feel confused and depressed.  

 

46.Why are there so many students that commit suicide?    

    A.Because of psychological and physical sickness.

    B.Because they feel hopeless and confused about their future.

    C.Because of the emotional trouble.

    D.All of the above.    

47.Which of the following is WRONG according to the article?

    A.No university had a whole day hotline providing suicide-prevention counseling before March.

    B.Many people envy the college students their bright futures.

    C.The students who feel confused and depressed may have psychological problems and need psychological education.

    D.The problems of student suicides indicate the increasing troubled mental state of young people..

48.What is the key to avoid student suicides?

    A.Parents communicate with their children and understand them.

    B.Colleges and universities offer more help to students.

    C.Students themselves realize their problems and seek help from others.

Sun Li has bumped into the headline of the press recently not because of her role of an actress but of a sponsor (赞助者) of a university student.

The student named Zhang Haiqing, who studies in Shanghai Fisheries University, wrote a letter to a reporter named Qiu Zhaoju working in Chongqing Satellite TV , saying that Sun, who had sponsored him for two years, stopped the financial aid after his entry into university and insulted him with words like “you are no better than a pet dog. ”

In 2002, Sun decided to sponsor the student who had lived in a poverty-stricken area when she shot a TV series in Yunnan Province. According to Sun’s spokeswomen Ms. Wang, the actress and her mother bought pens, notebooks, even a mobile phone and a camera besides tuitions for him.

Qiu revealed the complaint in his blog, which has soon set off a heated debate over whether Sun should stop or continue her aid to Zhang. Most of netizens who responded to the news expressed strongly different views to-wards the issue.

The issue has answered for an old Chinese saying that longtime sponsorship will lead to hatred, an article written by a reader named Yin Guo’an on people. com. cn.

The saying tells us that longtime contacts will set off conflicts. If Sun had donated 5,000 yuan to Zhang once and for all, the student would have had heartfelt gratitude for her. Now, however Sun’s two year-old funding has induced his complaint.

It could be seen, the article said, that Sun had planned to shoulder Zhang’s tuition until his graduation from university, as showed the actress’ responsible attitude.

As a student being sponsored, Zhang should have some self-control so he could neither feel justified to ask for constant help nor return kindness with hatred, the article suggested.

The reporter Qiu also voiced his own views on kindness. There is no real kind and enmity between Sun and Zhang, he said. Both parties have not done something wrong, the reporter believed, _____, which results in mis-understanding and such a result no one could expect at the very beginning.

That is why he put the student’s letter in his blog, the reporter explained. “I want you to think of the questions: why will a kind action lead to a bad ending? How should we help an innocent student deal with the action? What sort of kind actions will get the best result?”

 

64. The sponsoring matter between Sun Li and Zhang Haiqing was probably first released ______.

A. by Yin Guo’ an                      B. in Chongqing Satellite TV

C. on the Internet                         D. by Sun Li’s spokes woman

65. Which of the following is the best sentence to be put into the blank in the text?

A. they just lack some communication             

B. they don't want their matter solved

C. the key between them lack honesty

D. they both think themselves

A. Zhang Haiqing should return kindness to Sun Li

B. Sun Li had better give away a amount of money to Zhang once

阅读理解,阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。

  Just about every week now, we read a newspaper headline about the genetic basis for breast cancer, intelligence, or obesity.Such news stories may lead us to believe our lives are being revolutionized by genetic discoveries.We may be close to changing and getting rid of mental illness, for example and identify the causes of crime, personality, and other basic human weaknesses

  But these hopes, it turns out, are based on faulty assumptions about genes and behavior.

  In many cases, people are motivated to accept research claims by the hope of finding solutions for frightening problems, like breast cancer.Accepting genetic causes for their characteristics can relieve guilt about behavior they want to change but can't.Efforts made to fight against them, at growing expense, have made little or no visible progress.The public wants to hear that science can help.

  Meanwhile, genetic claims are being made for many ordinary and abnormal behaviors, from addiction to shyness and even to political views and divorce.If who we are is determined from pregnancy, then our efforts to change or to influence our children may be useless.There may also be no basis for insisting that people behave themselves and obey laws.Thus, the revolution in thinking about genes has great consequences for how we view ourselves as human beings.

  Most claims linking emotional disorders and behaviors to genes are statistical in nature.The research finds are insufficient for deciding that alcoholism or mainic-depression(躁狂抑郁症患者)is inherited.In the late 1980s, genes for manic-depression were identified by teams of geneticists.The claims have now been definitively proved wrong.

  Genetic data on the major mental illnesses make it clear that they can't be reduced to purely genetic causes.According to Myrna Weissman, Ph.D., Americans born before 1905 had a 1 percent rate of depression by age 75.Among Americans born a half century later, 6 percent become depressed by age 24! Similarly, while the average age at which manic-depression first appears was 32 in the mid 1960s, its average beginning today is 19.Only social factors can produce such large shifts in rate and age of beginning of mental disorders in a few decades.

  Scientists actively debate whether disorders like alcoholism are more or less biologically driven.If they are mainly biological-rather than psychological, social, and cultural-then there may be a genetic basis for them.In 1990, Kenneth Blum, Ph.D., of the University of Texas, and Ernest Noble, M.D., of the University of California, Los Angeles, found a certain gene in 70 percent of a group of alcoholics, but in only 20 percent of a non-alcoholic group.But in 1993 Joel Gelernter, M.D., of Yale and his colleagues surveyed all the studies that examined this gene and alcoholism.Different from Blum and Noble's research, the results were that 18 percent of non-alcoholics, 18 percent of problem drinkers, and 18 percent of severe alcoholics all had the gene.As for Blum and Noble's work, a more reasonable model is that genes may affect how people experience alcohol.Perhaps some people's nerves are more activated by alcohol.But although genes can influence reactions to alcohol, they cannot explain why some people continue drinking to the point of destroying their lives.

  Therefore, claims that our genes cause our problems, our misbehavior, even our personalities are more a mirror of our culture's attitudes than a window for human understanding and change.

A deadly strain of avian flu may have passed between people for the first time, experts believe.The avian influenza A (H7N9) virus is thought to have been transmitted between father and daughter in eastern China, according to research published online by the British Medical Journal (BMJ).

    The findings provide the strongest evidence yet of H7N9 transmission between humans since its discover in February, but its ability to transmit itself was deemed "limited and non-sustainable" by the Chinese researchers behind the study.At the end of June 133 cases had been reported, including 43 deaths. Most infections have been among people visiting markets, selling live birds or among those who had contact with live poultry(家禽) in the seven to 10 days before becoming ill.

The latest study examined the case of a 60-year-old father who regularly visited a live poultry market and became ill five to six days after his last visit in March. He was admitted to hospital with fever, cough and shortness of breath. Despite intensive care treatment he died of multiple organ failure on 4 May. His 32-year-old daughter, who was previously healthy, looked after him at his bedside before he was admitted to intensive care. She had no known exposure to live poultry before falling ill with a very high temperature, cough and fever. The daughter developed symptoms six days after her last contact with her father and was admitted to hospital where she died of multiple organ failure on 24 April.

Follow-up investigations(调查) uncovered almost genetically identical virus strains from each patient, suggesting transmission from father to daughter. Another 43 people were also tested who had had close contact with the father, daughter or both.

Dr Peter Horby, senior clinical research fellow at the Oxford University Clinical Research Unit in Hanoi, Vietnam, said of the study: "The most likely source of infection for the daughter was her father, during the period that she cared for him while he was ill. "He said “limited person to person transmission had been reported for other strains like H5N1 , H7N7, and the pig origin flu virus H3N2. Those strains had been around for more than a decade but have not progressed any further down the path towards a world-wide virus.” “Limited human-to-human transmission of H7N9 virus is therefore not surprising, but strengthening to monitor it was still needed,” Dr Horby added.
