   Marriage is, for many people, their most important relationship, the source of much happiness, and, for some, even adds extra years to their life. While the 【C1】______ between marriage and well-being has been intensely studied, predicting marital success is difficult. Exactly which people are likely to make successful spouses, and what can they do to 【C2】______ the odds of being successful and happy in marriage?
   "The state of marriage is that it’s going in two directions. For people with a college degree, marriage is still going 【C3】______." However, Cherlin explains, "for people with less education, there’s less marriage and more break-ups." Happy marriage 【C4】______ are much less common in such households. Another predictor of successful marriages is the quality of a couple’s childhood relationship with their parents. "The kind of relationships you have with your parents 【C5】______ up are predictive of marital quality in adulthood," Umberson says. Finally, there is a chicken-and-egg  【C6】______ to successful marriages. "People who are married are happier than people who aren’t. The question is how much of this is 【C7】______ and how much is effect?" While natural selection surely has an impact here, Cherlin says, "people who are 【C8】______ happy are more likely to get married, but marriage makes them even healthier."
   In Umberson’s view, the key to good marriages is a 【C9】______ supportive relationship. "I think it’s the presence of emotional support and the person you’re with that make you feel emotionally supported," she says. On the other hand, "If your partner is 【C10】______ and demanding" all the time, those "are just red flags" in terms of marital happiness. And in terms of stress, she notes, "marital strain is worse for your health than marital happiness is good for your health." [br] 【C1】
