Living Alone Is Joyful
More and more Americans are living alone. Some live alone because of divorce or the death of a partner. 【B1】______According to a recent U. S. census(人口普查), 25 percent of all households in the U.S. are made up of just one person. This is a dramatic change from the extended families of just a couple of generations ago.
The typical person living alone is neither old nor lonely.【B2】______The majority of these people have chosen to live alone. They are responding to decreasing social pressure to get married and have a family.

答案
