21、 the problem even more involved, people will often camouflage(掩盖 ) their true feelings, thus causing their friends to disregard problems that should be viewed as serious. In the US, a network of centers has been created to attempt to prevent suicides. People who are bitter, worded, or depressed are

22、encouraged to contact workers at these centers.
