gemayarousesomestudents'negativeemotionsagain.”可知校方不愿意接受采访。12.答案：C解析：细节理解题。根据第六段开头“Advisorsandclassleadersconducteddormtodormcheckstofindstudentssufferingdepression.”可知答案为C项。13.答案：B解析：推理判断题。Entertainment指“娱乐版”；Campus指“校园版”；Advertisement指“广告版”；Culture指“文化版”。本文介绍的是华中科技大学学生跳楼自杀的原因和解决办法，所以应在“校园版”。14.答案：A解析：细节理解题。校方对第一次自杀事件迅速做出了反应，这不应该是他们不愿接受采访的原因。15.答案：B解析：主旨大意题。本文首先由描述华中科技大学两名学生自杀引出“大学生自杀”这一社会现象和问题，然后分析产生此现象的原因，最后提出解决方法。解决方法是重点，所以答案为B项。D16.答案：D解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“...tosuffercoldandhardship，andtotakerisksonhighmountains？”可知，爬山者要遭受寒冷、艰辛，还要冒各种风险。可知选D项，“包含以上全部内容”。17.答案：C解析：细节理解题。根据第三段第二、三句“Therearenomanmaderules，asthereareforsuchgamesasgolfandfootball.Thereare，ofcourse，rulesofadifferentkind...”可知，运动与游戏的主要不同在于规则。18.答案：D解析：细节理解题。根据第四段第三句“...whenclimbersareonarockfacelinkedbyaropeonwhichtheirlivesmaydepend，thereisobviouslyteamwork.”可知，登山运动员在登山过程中也需要相互依靠。所以登山运动也是一项集体运动，正确答案为D项。19.答案：C解析：推理判断题。根据第四段第三句“Thereare，itistrue，no‘matches’between‘teams’ofclimbers...”以及第五段第二句“Hehastofighttheforcesofnature.”可知，登山运动是同大自然进行比赛。20.答案：A解析：主旨大意题。本文主要在讨论登山运动并将其与其他运动相比较，A项最具概括性。第二节1.答案：Tipsonmakingasuccessfulinterview2.答案：MakeFullSelfpreparation3.答案：Tobeagoodlistenerandfindsomecommongroundwithyourinterviewers.4.答案：smartlyandcasually/inasmartandcasualstyle5.答案：thatyouarenervous-8-
