The number of people living in unhappy relationships has more than doubled in five years, to over 1 million, according to research by the Office for National Statistics (ONS). 【F1】
Since these couples are becoming less happy as the economy improves, this has been taken by some as proof that it is a financial recovery, rather than a recession, that chips away at marital bliss.
There is a feeling of a social marriage collapsing after too long spent trying to live peaceably on not quite enough. 【F2】
The dirtiest and bitterest divorce is happening in the Labour party, as both sides fling ever more savage accusations at each other, in a bid for custody over the infrastructure.
Politics in its broadest sense, the strings that constitute the fabric, is unravelling. 【F3】
The genius of the austerity narrative for two or three years after the crash was that it sounded quite fun, a Blitz-style project that would both unite us and remind us of what was really important.
Yoked to the donkey that was "big society", it was supposed to be exciting to cut social security as well as the shared resources of the state. It would give us the space to show how much we really cared for one another. Community spirit, in this frame, had been crowded out pre-2007 by too much generosity from the centre.
【F4】
It was always nonsense, as many of us politely noted from the start, and should never have been called austerity but rather a redistribution from the poor to the rich.
As the years of belt-tightening have made life less liveable, the social landscape has come to duplicate an unhappy marriage: what were previously points of difference—were you more or less concerned with sovereignty, more or less happy about immigration, more or less international in outlook?—have hardened into positions that are completely incompatible.
【F5】
The rules of warmth that you need to resolve conflict—assume goodwill, say things earlier rather than later—have been replaced by each side imputing terrible motives or wilful stupidity to the other.
As a country we have painted ourselves into a corner where, in the best case scenario, only half of us will be deeply unhappy. The difference is that we can’t divorce. We can’t even have a trial separation. We need some kind of mediation to get through this: maybe a neutral outsider (Switzerland?).
【F5】
选项
答案
解决冲突所需要的温暖法则——也就是假装友善,早说而不是晚说——现在已被两派弃用,取而代之的是把恶意或固执的愚钝行为归咎于对方身上。
解析
①本句为复合句,句子中包含that引导的定语从句,修饰先行词The rules of warmth,说明温暖法则是解决冲突所需要的。两个破折号之间的部分是插入语,进一步解释说明“所谓的温暖法则”是指“假装友善,早提而不是晚说”。②impute sth.to sb.意为“把……归结于某人”。
