The house and carriage is a thing of the past. but love and marriage are still with us and still closely interrelated. Most American marriages, 【21】______ first marriages uniting young people, are the result of mutual attraction and affection 【22】______ than practical considerations.
In the United States, parents do not 【23】______ marriages for their children. Teenagers begin dating in high school and usually find mates through their own academic and social 【24】______
【25】______ young people feel free to choose their friends from 【26】______ groups, most choose a mate of similar 【27】______

选项
A、restrained
B、retained
C、reserved
D、restricted
答案
D
解析
本句探讨原因之二“他们受到比父母当时更少的偏见制约”。这里显然不能使用retain(保持,保留)和reserve(保留,预订)。restrain(控制,阻止)语气比较温和,指自我约束。restrict表示“限制在一人界限或范围内”。因此,我们得出答案是D,就是说年轻人没有受到多少偏见的限制。
