Japan’s divorce rate rose to a record high last year, reflecting an increasing number of middle-aged and older couples who are parting ways.
The number of divorces rose for a 12th straight year in 2002, according to recently re leased government statistics that provided the latest confirmation that the stigma long associated with breaking up is fading in this country.
According to the Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry, a record 289,836 couples divorced last year, up 1.4 percent from the previous high of 285,911 in 2001.
Behind the rise is an increasing number of couples who are parting ways after being married for 20 years or more: They accounted for 15.7 percent in 1975. The corresponding figure for newlyweds—married five years or less—fell to 34.4 percent from 49 percent.
Divorce is no longer seen as a social taboo in harmony-conscious Japan. But that is slowly becoming a thing of the past, a trend some attribute to a weakening of group-oriented values.
选项
A、Couples who are married for less than two years.
B、Couples who are married for less than five years.
C、Couples who are married for more than five years.
D、Couples who are married for more than twenty years.
答案
B
解析
原文第四段最后一句说“...newlyweds—married five years or less...”,由此可判断,新婚夫妇是指结婚5年或不满5年的夫妇。因此,选项b的说法是正确的。
