问题    The United States has many different types of families. While most American families are traditional comprising a father, mother and one or more children, 22.5 percent of all American families in 1983 were headed by one parent, usually a woman. In some families in the United States, there are no children. These childless couples may believe that they would not make good parents; they may want freedom from the responsibilities of child-rearing; or perhaps they are not physically able to have children. Other families in the United States have one adult who is a stepparent. A stepmother or stepfather is a person who joins a family by marrying a father or mother.
   Americans tolerate and accept these different types of families. In the United States, people have the right to privacy and Americans do not believe in telling other Americans what type of family group they must belong to. They respect each other’s choices regarding family groups.
The second paragraph intends to tell us about ______.

选项 A、general traits of the Americans
B、the reason why Americans tolerate and accept different family types.
C、the social customs in American society
D、the result of the social changes.

答案B

解析 文章第二段主要讲美国人能容忍这么多家庭类型存在的原因:一是每个人都有隐私权;二是相互尊重他人的选择。所以正确答案选B。
