The number of girls married in Africa is expected to double in the next 35 years, experts say. [l]That means almost half, or 310 million girls, by 2050 will be married before they reach adulthood, says a United Nation’s report. The African Union says it wants to end child marriage in Africa.
Delegates at a summit in Zambia are expected to set 18 years old as the lowest legal age for marriage across the continent. Marriage before age 18 is already against the law in most African countries.
Yet the UN says more than 125 million African women and girls alive today were married before their 18th birthday. Experts say most were given to men in traditional or religious unions in violation of the law.
[2]African Union chairwoman Nkosozana Dlamini Zuma says local culture that undervalues girls and women is to blame. Poverty and lack of education are also responsible, experts say.
1. What do we learn from the United Nation’s report?
2. What is the reason for child marriage in Africa?
选项
A、The number of adult girls is expected to double by 2050.
B、Child marriage in Africa will be ended by 2050.
C、Half women will be married before reaching adulthood by 2050.
D、The legal marriage age will set above 18 by 2050.
答案
C
解析
新闻的开头提到,联合国的一份报告称,到2050年会有将近一半女孩(约3.1亿)在未成年时就结婚,C所述与此一致。A错在The number of adult girls,数量会翻倍的是未成年就结婚的女孩数量(The number of girls married),而非成年女孩的数量。B“童婚到2050时会结束”和D“合法结婚年龄到2050年会设定在18岁以上”都出现新闻中的个别原词,但所述内容都没有实质根据。
