A good marriage means growing as a couple but also growing as individuals. This isn’t easy; marriage has always been difficult. Why are we seeing so many divorces at this time? Yes, our modern social fabric is thin, and yes. the permissiveness of society has created unrealistic expectations and threw the family into disorder. But divorce is so common because people today are unwilling to exercise the self-discipline that marriage requires. They expect easy joy, like the entertainment on TV, the thrill of a good party.
    Marriage takes some kind of sacrifice, not dreadful self-sacrifice of the soul, but some level of compromise. Some of one’s fantasies, some of one’s legitimate desires, have to be given up for the value of the marriage itself. "While all martial partners feel shacked at times, it is they who really choose to make the martial ties into confining chains or supporting bonds," says Dr. Walter. Marriage requires sexual, financial and emotional disciple. A man and a woman cannot follow every impulse, cannot allow them to stop growing or changing.
Questions:
26. Why are divorces so common at present?
27. Which of the following cannot be sacrificed in a marriage?
28. How to maintain a good marriage?

选项 A、Because it is difficult to maintain a marriage.
B、Because people like watching TV programs.
C、Because people prefer freedom to self-discipline.
D、Because our society is permissive towards divorces.

答案 C

解析 语义理解题。该题问“现在离婚变得很常见的原因。”在第一段我们可以听到和原因有关的关键词:because。该句子是: But divorce is so common because people today are unwilling to exercise the self-discipline that marriage requires.(离婚如此普遍,是因为现在的人们不愿意接受婚姻所要求的自我约束.)prefer freedom to self-discipline与unwilling to exercise the self-discipline属于同义转换。意思是“不愿意受约束”,所以选项C是正确答案.
