In India,almost all marriages are arranged.Even among the educated middle classes in modern,urban India,marriage is as much a concern of the families as it is of the individuals.So customary is the practice of arranged marriage that there is a special name for a marriage which is not【C1】______:It is called a“love match”.
On my first field trip to India,I met many young men and women whose parents were in the process of“getting them married.”In many cases,the bride and groom would not meet each other before the marriage.At most they might meet for a【C2】______conversation,and this meeting would take place only after their parents had decided that the match was【C3】______.Parents do not force their children to marry a person who either marriage partner finds objectionable.But only after one match is refused will another be sought.
As a young American woman in India for the first time,I found this custom of arranged marriage strange.How could any intelligent young person【C4】______to such a marriage without great reluctance? It was【C5】______to everything I believed about the importance of romantic love as the only basis of a happy marriage.It was also in conflict with my strongly held beliefs that the choice of such a close and permanent relationship could be made only by individuals involved.If anyone had tried to arrange my marriage,1 would have been【C6】______!
Sita,one of my young friends,was a college graduate with a degree in political science.She had been waiting for over a year while her parents were arranging a match for her.I found it difficult to accept the obedient(顺从的)manner in which this well-educated young woman awaited the outcome of a process that would【C7】______her spending the rest of her life with a man she hardly knew,a total stranger,【C8】______by her parents.
In frustration and distress,I asked her,“Don’t you care who you【C9】______?”“Of course I care,”she answered.“This is why I must let my parents choose a boy for me.My marriage is too important to be arranged by such a(n)inexperienced person as myself.In such matters,it is better to have my parents’【C10】______”.
【C2】
选项
A、brief
B、frequent
C、regular
D、basic
答案
A
解析
本句的前一句介绍了许多情况下新郎和新娘在结婚前往往互不相见,接着本句指出,“大多数情况下,他们可能为了一个______的谈话而相见”。纵观四个选项,brief“简短的”,故A选项符合题意,为正确答案。Frequent“频繁的”,regular“定期的”,basic“基本的”,均不符合题意。
