问题     A team at the University of Michigan recently published a study of how married couples fight. They also looked at how different "styles" of arguing might predict the future of a marriage.
    The findings appeared in the Journal of Marriage and Family.
    The study followed 373 couples over sixteen years. Forty-six percent of them had divorced by the final year in 2002.
    The couples were asked at four different times to report on their most recent conflict. And they had to agree on which conflict was their most recent one firstly.
    The husbands and wives each had to choose from a list of behaviors to describe the strategies they used. The list included constructive behaviors like calm discussion, listening, and trying hard to find out the other person’s feelings.
    The list also included destructive behaviors like yelling, using insults, walking away or not communicating—in other words, the silent treatment.
    The researchers found that different combinations of strategies may help predict whether a couple will stay together. The chances decrease if only one partner uses constructive strategies.
We can learn from the passage that the study began in the year______.
选项 A、1946
B、1973
C、1986
D、2002
答案C
解析 细节推断题。第三段提到该研究进行了16年，最后一年是2002年，由此可以推断研究从1986年开始。
