Nowadays, more and more young couples prefer not to have a child immediately after their marriage. What explains this trend toward delayed childbearing? First, the increasing divorce rate is making many newly-weds think twice about starting a family right away. Second, many young couples want to be more financially secure before having a baby. Finally, more married women prefer to devote time to their career. They think that being pregnant and caring for a child will make them less competitive in today’s rapidly changing world.
选项
答案 现今，越来越多的年轻夫妇不愿意婚后马上生子。究竟什么导致了这种延迟生育的趋势呢?首先，离婚率的上升使很多新婚夫妇在马上要孩子之前会谨慎考虑。第二，很多年轻夫妇想在要孩子前经济上更稳定。最后，越来越多的已婚女性愿意投身在事业上。她们认为，怀孕或照顾小孩，会削弱她们在当今日新月异的世界中的竞争力。
解析 关键词汇：delayed childbearing(延迟分娩)；newly-weds(新婚者)；financially secure(经济上稳定，财务上安全)，英语经常把名词变成形容词，而把原本修饰名词的形容词变成副词。本篇难度一般， first，second，finally分类清晰，考生可能感觉难的地方就是词汇，如上述所列的关键词汇。
