S. history. Today’s later age of marriage is【35】the age of marriage between 1890 and 1940.【36】, a greater proportion of the population was married (95 percent) during the 1950s than at any time before【37】. Experts do not agree on【38】the "marriage rush" of the late 1940s and 1950s occurred, but most social scientists believe it represented a【39】to the return of peaceful life and prosperity after 15 years of severe economic【40】and war.
