The secret of a long and happy marriage appears to be not to expect too much from it. Far better, US researchers say, to aim low to ensure you are not disappointed. The key to keeping that newlywed glow appears to be forgiveness and communication. The study by researchers from Ohio and Florida Universities looked at 82 couples. They quizzed all the spouses independently over four years. Writing in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, researchers led by James McNulty, professor of psychology at Ohio University, said: "In contrast to the idea that expectations in the early years of marriage exert main effects on satisfaction, the current findings suggest that the effects of expectations interact with the skills partners bring to their relationships." The study also found that people tend to select like-minded partners who they believe will be able to maintain a stable relationship. The finding contradicts the old belief that opposites attract. Instead, the US researchers said people looking for long-term relationships should select partners who were similar to themselves, rather than seeking out the highest quality partner available.

D、Partners who have the same characters will lead to a dull relationship.
答案
B
解析
短文介绍了一项婚姻调查研究的几个结论,其中一条说:“原先的看法是,婚后头几年里,期望值对满意度起着主要作用;而目前的研究结果与此相对:期望值的影响力与夫妻间相处的技巧密切相关。”也就是说,夫妻间相处的技巧对婚姻关系很重要,故B正确。C、D尽管措辞不同,但意义一致,属等价选项,可直接排除;A的含义即短文提到的“原先的看法”,不属目前研究的结论。
