Some marriages seem to collapse so suddenly that you’d need a crystal ball to predict their demise (灭亡).
In other【1】, though, the seeds of marital dissolution are not only easier to see but they may be planted even before the honeymoon bills come【2】. According to UCLA psychologist Thomas Bradbury, Ph. D., the way a newlywed【3】when his or her spouse is facing a personal problem—work stress, say, or a recent weight gain—is a【4】good window into their marital future.
Bradbury and Lauri Pasch, Ph. D., invited 57 couples, all married less than six months, to【5】a difficulty that each partner was having. While some couples proved to be superstars at providing emotional support, others were woefully inept (笨拙的). You just cringed (退缩) when you watched them, Bradbury says.
Two years later, nine of the couples had already【6】and five other marriages were intact but hanging by a thread. These 14 couples, it turned out, had been far less likely to provide support to one another as newlyweds than the other 43 couples whose marriages were【7】. Bradbury thinks a couple’s inability to help each other through【8】times is what often blossoms into full-fledged marital discord (不和谐)—and ultimately divorce.
All of which suggests an obvious antidote (轶事) to the sky-high divorce rate: if couples can learn how to provide emotional support before they marry, they【9】a better chance of staying together.

I. due J. reacts K. surprisingly L. durable
M. split N. regularly O. discuss [br] 【7】
选项
答案
A
解析
此空是在were后面,所以有两种可能性,一种是填形容词,另一种是填分词。根据than一词,可知这43对夫妻与14对夫妻的less likely to provide support相反,因此空白处的单词应表积极意义,由此可得出答案为thriving。
