1.[D]事实细节题。根据题干定位第2段第2、3句。这两句之间存在隐含的因果关系,第2句是因,第3句是果。只有选项D在第2句提到其他选项均未提及。
2.[B]推理判断题。本文开头的例子所支持的现点在第3段第1句,同时结合suicide,此题答案为B。选项A、D的观点有误,选项C与本文的写作目的无关。
3.[B]事实细节题。第2段第3句中的malpractice和第4句中的虚拟语气说明,她认为学校没有对她的自杀企图采取足够的防范措施,故选B。选项A最具干扰性,但第3句说明学校关注过她的问题,只是关注不够,因此选项A过于绝对。选项C中的academicinstructions和D中的physicaldisease属于与文章无关的信息。
4.[A]事实细节题。第4段倒数第2句引文是该校发言人的辩护词,与选项A的意思一致。选项B、C为无关信息。选项D是原文最后一段的原句照搬,与此题不相关。
5.[C]事实细节题。最后一段提到造成精神疾病的多种原因。第1句中的generallypredisposed为先天具有之意,与选项D的内容吻合。选项B和A分别对应文中破折号前后的内容。
