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.

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。
