The proportion of American adults who are married【S3】______from 72 percent in 1970 to 60 percent in 2002.

Besides, young adults of the 1950s married younger than did any【S7】______generation in U.S. history. Today’s later age of marriage is in line with the age of marriage between 1890 and 1940. Moreover, a【S8】______proportion of the population was married(95 percent)during the 1950s than at any time before and after. Experts do not【S9】______on why the "marriage rush" of the late 1940s and 1950s occurred, but most social scientists believe it represented a response to the return of peaceful life and【S10】______after 15 years of severe economic depression and war.
[A] declined [F] scarcely [K] widespread

选项
答案
K
