The State of Marriage Today
Is there something seriously wrong with marriage today?During the past 50 years,the rate of divorce in
the United States has exploded:almost 50% of marriages end in divorce now,and the evidence suggests it is
going to get worse.If this trend continues,it will lead to the breakup of the family,according to a spokesper-
son for the National Family Association.Some futurists predict that in 100 years,the average American will
marry at least four times ,and extramarital(婚外的)affairs will be even more common than they are now.
But what are the reasons for this ,and is the picture really so gloomy(阴暗的)?The answer to the first
question is really quite simple:marriage is no longer the necessity it once was.The institution of marriage has
been based for years partly on economic need.Women used to be economically dependent on their
husbands一as they usually didn't have jobs outside the home.But with the rising number of women in well-
paying jobs,this is no longer the case,so they don't feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage.
In answer to the second question , the outlook may not be as pessimistic(悲观的)as it seems. While the
rate of divorce has risen;the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen very much,so marriage is still
quite popular. In addition to this,many couples now simply live together and don't bother to marry. These
couples are effectively married,but they do not appear in either the marriage or divorce statistics.In fact,
more than 50%of first marriages survive.
So is marriage really an outdated institution?The fact that most people still get married indicates that it
isn't. And it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people:they suffer less from
stress and its consequences,such as heart problems,and married men generally consider themselves more
contented than their single counterparts. Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage and
apply it to all of our relationships!
选项
Why is the outlook of marriage not as hopeless as it appears?
A:Many people still like to get married.
B:The rate of divorce has actually decreased.
C:Over 60%of the marriages continue to exist.
D:The statistics of divorce is reliable.
答案
A
解析
由第一段可知如果离婚率持续走高的话,会导致家庭的破裂,A项错;几乎是一半人离 婚了,而不是超过一半,故B项错;是将会结四次婚,而不是现在就结四次婚,故C项错。由段中的“it is going to get worse”可知选D。
由第二段可知,现在妇女都有报酬好的工作了,经济都已经独立了,经济问题对于她们来说已不是问题了。故选A。
由第三段中的“marriage is still quite popular”可知,情况还没有那么糟糕,还是有很多人 愿意结婚的。故选A。
由第四段中的“consider themselves more contented than...”可知选D。 contented意为“满 意的”。
文中根本没有提到出国的事,故选D。
