   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 intensely studied, predicting marital success is difficult. Exactly which people are likely to make successful spouses, and what can they do to 【C2】______ the odds of being successful and happy in marriage?
   "The state of marriage is that it’s going in two directions. For people with a college degree, marriage is still going 【C3】______." However, Cherlin explains, "for people with less education, there’s less marriage and more break-ups." Happy marriage 【C4】______ are much less common in such households. Another predictor of successful marriages is the quality of a couple’s childhood relationship with their parents. "The kind of relationships you have with your parents 【C5】______ up are predictive of marital quality in adulthood," Umberson says. Finally, there is a chicken-and-egg  【C6】______ to successful marriages. "People who are married are happier than people who aren’t. The question is how much of this is 【C7】______ and how much is effect?" While natural selection surely has an impact here, Cherlin says, "people who are 【C8】______ happy are more likely to get married, but marriage makes them even healthier."
   In Umberson’s view, the key to good marriages is a 【C9】______ supportive relationship. "I think it’s the presence of emotional support and the person you’re with that make you feel emotionally supported," she says. On the other hand, "If your partner is 【C10】______ and demanding" all the time, those "are just red flags" in terms of marital happiness. And in terms of stress, she notes, "marital strain is worse for your health than marital happiness is good for your health."
【C5】

选项

答案E

解析 系表结构are predictive为主句谓语,you have with your parents…up应为省略了关系代词that/which的定语从句。由句中The kind of relationships...are predictive of marital quality…可知,本句和前句意思相近。前句讲到,另外一个能预测婚姻会否成功的是夫妻双方孩提时代和他们父母亲之间的关系。本句中you have with your parents...up应与前句childhood relationship with their parents呼应,词库中现在分词growing能与up搭配,表示“成长过程”,句意通顺,故选E。
