The first year of college is usually a time to learn and have fun. Many young people enjoy the freedom of living away from home for the first time. For young women in the United States, however, it is a time when they are at high risk of experiencing a sex crime.
    The U.S. Justice Department reports that American women aged 18 to 24 had the highest rate of sexual assault. The study also found that university students were less likely to report such crimes than non-students. Among college women, nine out of ten knew the person who sexually assaulted them.
    In Canada, three universities recently ran a program to train female students to avoid sexual assault while in college. The program was a two-year training course which involved women in their first year of college. The students spent 12 hours learning how to judge risks, deal with emotions, and use self-defense.
    The program taught students to be especially on guard at parties and other high-risk campus social events. The training taught students to attend such events together. If separated, they should check on each other every now and then. They should also take extra care in their use of alcohol. At least half of the sexual assaults among college women involve drinking.
    About 450 students received the training. A group of about the same size received only written information and a brief meeting with the trainers. The group that received the 12 hours of training saw an almost 50 percent drop in risk of rape. In the U.S., Harvard and several other universities have also developed "bystander training." This means students offer help if they see someone in danger of being assaulted. The training helps students, both men and women, decide when it is safe to personally intervene and when to call the police.
    Last year, the President ordered the establishment of a task force on sexual violence at universities. The investigation report advised universities to take several measures. They include methods for researching the sex crime "climate" of the university and improving systems for reporting crimes as well as prevention programs.
    The White House task force said one in five women experiences sexual assault in her college years. It has started a web site called Not Alone to give schools and students information on how to react to and prevent sexual assault.
23. What can we learn from the U.S. Justice Department’s report?
24. What did the Canadian students learn from the program?
25. What did the White House task force do to prevent sexual assaults?

选项 A、Stay away from parties and campus social events.
B、Stick together always if going to the social events.
C、Check on each other often if they are separated.
D、Don’t drink because drinking causes sexual assaults.

答案 C

解析 录音指出女生们如果在社交场合分散了,应不时互相确认对方情况(check on each other every now and then),C项的often与原文中的now and then同义,C项正确。录音指出女生们应在派对和其他高风险社交场所保持警惕(on guard),但并非远离这些活动,A项错误。录音建议女生们应结伴去社交场合,但并不是去这些活动时始终黏在一起(stick together),B项错误。女生们饮酒时应格外注意,因为至少有一半的女大学生性侵犯案件与饮酒有关,但并不是D项“她们不应该饮酒因为饮酒会导致性侵犯”。
