The horse and carriage is thing of the past, but love and marriage is still with us and still closely interrelated. Most American marriages, particularly first marriages【C1】________young couples are the result of【C2】________ attraction and affection【C3】________ than practical considerations.
In the United States, parents do not arrange marriages for their children. Teenagers begin【C4】________in high school and usually find mates through their own academic and social【C5】________. Though young people feel【C6】________to choose their friends from【C7】________groups, most choose a mate of similar background. This is【C8】________in part to parental guidance. Parents cannot select spouses for their children, but they can usually【C9】________ choices by【C10】________ disapproval of someone they consider unsuitable.
【C11】________, marriages between members of different groups (interclass, interfaith, and interracial marriages) are increasing, probably because of the greater【C12】________of today’s youth and the fact that they are restricted by【C13】________prejudice than their parents. Many young people leave their home towns to attend college,【C14】________in the armed forces,【C15】________pursue a career in a bigger city. Once away from home and family, they are more【C16】________to date and marry outside their own social group. In mobile American society, interclass marriages are neither【C17】________nor shocking. Interfaith marriages are【C18】________the rise particularly between Protestants and Catholics. On the other hand, interracial marriage is still very uncommon. It can be difficult for interracial couples to find a place to live, maintain friendships, and【C19】________a family. Marriages between people of different national【C20】________(but the same race and religion) have been commonplace here since colonial times.
【C1】
选项
A、linking
B、concerning
C、connecting
D、correlating
答案
B
解析
定位本填空前后的原文,前面的线索为first marriages(第一次婚姻),后面线索为young couples(年轻的夫妻),结合本文的主线,此处可能将会表达:在美国,年轻夫妻的第一次婚姻是爱的结果。所以这里,本填空需要强调的意思是“关于年轻夫妻的第一次婚姻”的概念,这里的目标是希望把年龄大的人的第一次婚姻隔离出去,加强作者的立论。从这个意义上,四个选项中B)concerning表达的意思最准确,因为concerning表示“涉及、关于”,即“关于年轻夫妻的第一次婚姻”。其他选项A)linking、c)connecting和D)correlating表示的是一个动作概念,即“结合、连接”等意思,不如选项B)concerning准确,所以选项B)是最佳答案。
