In most cultures throughout the world, there is an expectation that when a person reaches adulthood, marriage should soon follow. In the United States alone, each month upwards of 168 000 couples wed,【C1】______to love, honor, and respect their chosen life mates until death parts them. The expectation is deep-rooted.
However, the social functions, purposes, and relevance of marriage are rapidly changing in 【C2】______society, making them less clear-cut than they have been throughout history. For instance, in a Pew Research Center random polling of over 2 000【C3】______, fewer than half of all of the adults polled indicated that if a man and a woman plan to spend the rest of their lives together as a couple, it was important that they【C4】______marry.
Those of us who choose to marry have【C5】______reasons why we decide to marry the person we do. There is a【C6】______, however, in our Western, individualistic culture: We tend to marry for reasons that benefit ourselves, rather than for reasons that benefit the society at large, such as found in collectivist cultures. Research in Western cultures has found, for example, that the number-one【C7】______people cite for marrying is to signify a lifelong commitment to someone they love. However, this reason is not the only response to why people wed—today, people get married for reasons of commitment, security, and personal belief systems. The Pew Research Center’s recent findings【C8】______that the main reasons people get married are for【C9】______ happiness and commitment, and bearing and raising children. As the data from this survey show us, there are racial, age, and religious differences in what people【C10】______to be the main purposes of getting married.
A)tendency F)pretending K)vowing

选项
答案
L
解析
动词辨析题。通过分析句子结构可知,空格处所填动词与前面的in what people构成一个定语从句,修饰前面的racial,age and religious differences。空格所在句的意思为:在人们——结婚的主要原因中,存在种族、年龄和宗教信仰的差异。所给的选项中只有L)consider“考虑,思考”符合文意,故为答案。
