问题     Young Koreans are beginning to do it alone when it comes to finding a partner, though matchmaking is still the most common way for boys to meet girls.
    Professional matchmakers can make thousands of American dollars by introducing suitable marriage partners to each other, but partners also play a role in the process during which young Koreans meet.
    In Confucius Korea, when marriage is regarded as more of a business contract than a sacred thing, the scene of the first meeting is repeated hundreds of times a day in coffee shops in the main hotels around Seoul.
    The business of continuing the family lineage (血统) and keeping the bloodlines pure is often too important to be left to romance and chance encounters.
    Often, the girl will work out a system of secret signals with her mother, from which her parents ca. . tell if she is interested.
    For example, if the girl orders a coffee it might mean that she wants her parents to leave her alone with the boy, while a milk shows that she wants them to stay.
    Sometimes the matchmaking is not always so formal, with the introduction being made by friends.
    But whether through friends or families, there is hardly a Korean man or woman in the country who has not gone through this process—sometimes six or seven times.  
The fact that the first meeting is repeated again and again in coffee shops in the main hotels suggests that ______.

选项 A、Koreans like drinking coffee in coffee shops very much
B、men and women want to meet as many times as possible
C、they are busy with communicating with different people
D、marriage is seen as a business contract instead of something sacred

答案D

解析 文章第三段提到“在韩国婚姻更多地被视作为是一种商业契约而不是一项神圣的事情”,正是这种态度决定了他们会把第一次见面安排在咖啡馆这种非正式的地方。
