问题     Marriage is the socially recognized and approved union between individuals, who commit to one another with the expectation of a stable and【S1】______intimate relationship. It begins with a ceremony known as a wedding, which【S2】______unites the marriage partners. A marital relationship usually involves some kind of【S3】______, either written or specified by tradition, which defines the partners’【S4】______and obligations to each other, to any children they may have, and to their relatives. In most contemporary industrialized societies, marriage is【S5】______by the government.
    In addition to being a personal relationship between two people, marriage is one of society’s most important and basic institutions. Marriage and family serve as tools for ensuring social reproduction. Social reproduction mainly includes providing food, clothing, and【S6】______for family members; raising and socializing children; and caring for the sick and【S7】______. In families and societies in which wealth, property, or a hereditary (世袭的) tide is to be【S8】______on from one generation to the next generation, inheritance and the production of legitimate heirs are a prime concern in marriage. In some cultures, marriage【S9】______connects two strange families in a complicated set of property exchanges, which involve land, labor, and other【S10】______. However, in contemporary industrialized societies, marriage functions less as a social institution and more as a some of intimacy for the individuals involved.

A) lasting           B) passed             C) rights             D) freedom
E) resources         F) shelter            G) dominated          H) elderly
I) formally          J) attractive         K) certified          L) continually
M) contract          N) amazingly          O) closely
【S7】
选项
答案H
解析 首先，从结构上看，and连接的应该是并列的形容词；其次，从语义上看，接受照顾的人肯定是弱者，如：病人、老人、孩子、残疾人等。所以本题选择elderly。那么，这句话的意思是“社会再生产主要包括为家庭成员提供衣食住，抚养和教化孩子，以及照顾病人和老人”。
