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.
It’s now socially acceptable, even fashionable, to live alone. As people get better jobs and become financially independent, it becomes possible for them to maintain a one-person household.【B3】______ owever, people who do get married are marrying at a later age and divorcing more often.
The number one reason given by most people for living alone is that they simply enjoy doing what they want when they want to do it. "Living alone is a luxury, "says Nina Hagiwara, 33. "Once you do it, you can’t ever go back to living with others, " David C’Debaca, 46, agrees.【B4】______
Children think that being grown up means being able to do exactly as they please.【B5】______ The chance to discover whether that freedom is as wonderful as it sounds is a chance more and more Americans are taking.

选项
答案
B
解析
前面一句话说“因为人们得到了更好的工作,经济上更加独立,所以他们才有可能维持一个人生活需要的开支”,而选项中只有B项“越来越多的女士有了好的工作,她们也使得独居人口的数量增加了”是与此相关联的。
