问题     Marriage is, for many people, their most important relationship, the source of much happiness, and, for some, even adds extra years to their life. While the【C1】________between marriage and well-being has been【C2】________studied, predicting marital success is【C3】________. Exactly which people are likely to make successful【C4】________and what can they do to【C5】________the odds of being successful and happy in mariage?
    "The state of marriage is that it’s going in two directions. For people with a college degree, marriage is still going【C6】________However, Cherlin explains, "for people with less【C7】________, there’s less marriage and more break-ups." Happy marriage【C8】________are much less common in such households.
    Another predictor of successful marriages is the quality of a【C9】________childhood relation-ship with their parents. "The kind of relation-ships you have with your parents【C10】________up are predictive of marital quality in【C11】________Umberson says.
    Finally, there is a chicken-and-egg【C12】________to successful marriages. "People who are married are【C13】________than people who aren’t. The question is how much of this is【C14】________and how much is effect?" While natural selection【C15】________has an impact here, Cherlin says, "people who are【C16】________happy are more likely to get married, but marriage makes them even healthier."
    The【C17】________to good marriages is similar in Umberson’s view. "I think it’s the presence of emotional support, and that the person you’re with does make you feel emotionally supported," she says.【C18】________, "If your partner is【C19】________and demanding" all the time, those "are just red flags" in terms of marital happiness. And in terms of【C20】________, she notes, "marital strain is worse for your health than marital happiness is good for your health."  
【C16】

选项 A、inherently
B、naturally
C、obviously
D、generally

答案A

解析 上半句讲到自然选择对婚姻和快乐的影响力,本句继续讲到:那些_________快乐的人更易结婚。“自然选择”暗示基因遗传方面的影响,此空所在的直接引语与前面while引导的从句构成转折,而该引语也含有表转折的从句,故空格所在部分应承接while引导的从句的语义,应跟基因遗传方面相关,故选A项inherently“天性地”。B项naturally“自然地”强调表现自然,不做作,D项generally意为“一般地”。两者均与natural selection不呼应。故排除。C项obviously意为“明显地”,本处主要讲幸福和自然选择有关的意思,不存在明不明显之说,故排除。
