The horse and carriage are things of the past. But love and marriage are still with us and still closely interrelated. Most American marriages, particularly first marriages 【C1】______ young couples are the result of 【C2】______ attraction and affection 【C3】______ than practical considerations.
In the United States, parents do not arrange marriages for their children. Teenagers begin 【C4】______ in high school and usually find mates through their own 【C5】______ and social contacts. Though young people feel free to choose their friends from 【C6】______ groups, most choose a mate of similar background. This is due in part to 【C7】______ guidance. Parents cannot select spouses for their children, but they can usually influence choices by 【C8】______ disapproval of someone they consider unsuitable.
【C9】______ , marriages between members of different groups ( interclass, interfaith, and interracial marriages) are increasing, probably because of the greater 【C10】______ of today’s youth and the fact that they are restricted by 【C11】______ prejudices than their parents. Many young people leave their home towns to attend college, 【C12】______ in the armed forces, 【C13】______ pursue a career in a bigger city. 【C14】______ away from home and family, they are more 【C15】______ to date and marry outside their own social group. In mobile American society, interclass marriages are neither 【C16】______ nor shocking. Interfaith marriages are 【C17】______ the rise particularly between Protestants and Catholics. 【C18】______ interracial marriage is still very uncommon. It can be difficult for interracial couples to find a place to live, maintain friendships, and 【C19】______ a family. Marriages between people of different national 【C20】______ (but the same race and religion) have been commonplace here since colonial times. [br] 【C16】
选项
A、strange
B、common
C、scarce
D、rare
答案
D
解析
篇章逻辑题之篇章语义。此处与shocking构成并列关系,指“在流动的现代美国社会,这种跨越群体的婚姻既不稀有也不令人吃惊”,故选择rare,指“稀罕的、稀有的”。strange指“陌生的”;common指“共同的”;scarce指“缺乏的”。
