【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[听力原文]17-20 M: Last time I talked about the student services in the college. Today I'd like to talk about the Counselling Services. The College Counselling Service is located in the North Building. The counsellors are Ms Penny Rawson and Ms Ann David. I have asked Ms Rawson to join us today to discuss their role. Ms Rawson... W: Thank you. Both Ann and I are full-time counsellors. Students either come tons on their own or are referred to us by a tutor. We see students individually, run group therapy sessions and courses of sessions as we think necessary. We are here to help with any problems? no matter how great or small, such as homesickness, relationship difficulties, death and separation, sexual problems, undue stress due to work and so on. You will not be the first to be homesick, find college life stressful, or decisions problematic. So please don't hesitate to come and have a chat if there is anything bothering you. This is a confidential service but we are willing to arrange with your course directors, your tutors, Student Union officers, career department or doctors. We can also put you in touch with outside counselling services. As a part of the university, all counselling is free of charge for full-time students. I know some of you may feel that seeing a counsellor has a stigma attached to it, but let me assure you even the best balanced individuals encounter situations where they need someone to talk with. So please don't hesitate. You're welcome to make use of this service. We hope you will enjoy your studies at the university. Thank you.

单选题
In the sentence "... seeing a counsellor has a stigma... ","stigma" here means ______.
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】由该词所在句的后一分句中的even the best...及下一句中的don't hesitate可以推知stigma应当是一种不好的、引发hesitate的事物,含有贬义,故选[A]。事实上,be a stigma attached to sth是一个固定短语,指“(做某事)被认为是一件丢脸或不光彩的事”。
