A disturbing report appeared recently in the magazine Science. The report describes an experiment, the results of which suggest that there are occasions when psychiatrists, doctors trained in the treatment of mental illnesses, have great difficulty in distinguishing between people who are mentally ill and those who are mentally healthy.
In the experiment, eight perfectly normal people pretended to have mental disorders and received psychiatric treatment in a number of different hospitals. The eight false patients included several trained doctors, who lied about their occupation. They also lied about their names and naturally about their symptoms. But in all other respects they told the truth concerning their lives and their personal relationships; and once they had been admitted to hospital they behaved quite normally.
However, as soon as they had been officially labeled "mentally ill", everything they did tended to con firm the diagnosis in the eyes of the medical staff. For if instance, if one of the "patients" approached a doctor and asked a perfectly sensible question such as "Pardon me doctor, could you tell me when I will be allowed to use the tennis courts?" The doctor’s normal response was "to walk straight on, ignoring the question".
The eight false patients stayed in the mental institutions for periods of from 7 to 52 days. They are forced to the frightening conclusion that once a person has disappeared behind the walls of a mental institution, it may prove extremely difficult to convince the medical authorities that he or she is not in fact mentally ill.
选项
A、He regarded them as mentally ill.
B、He was unqualified and irresponsible.
C、He treated his patients by new methods.
D、He doubted whether they were real patients.
答案
A
解析
推理题。however引出的转折句也时常考的内容。他们一旦被officially labeled“mentally ill”,他们所作的一切都被看作是confirm the diagnosis,医生对他们提出的很正常的问题也不加理睬。其他选项的内容在文中都没有依据。
