School failure and social isolation can lead to early onset of depression in children and teens, and the trend is becoming increasingly common.
参考答案:错
解析:[听力原文] Early onset of depression in children and teens is increasingly common. Depressed adolescents are at high risk for school failure, social isolation, promiscuity, "self-medication", and even suicide—the third leading cause of death among 15-to 24-year-olds.
[分析]: 因果关系的判断。 原文讨论青少年消沉沮丧的问题时说“Depressed adolescents are at high risk for school failure, social isolation…”即“消沉沮丧的年轻人会面临巨大的危险,如学业失败,与社会隔绝等”,由此可判断,消沉沮丧是因,而学业失败,与社会隔绝等是果。题干因果关系倒置,因此是错误的。 [解题关键] 在没有明显信号词提示的情况下,迅速对上下文语义逻辑关系作出判断,如对上面句子中信息的逻辑关系作出判断。
