The horse and carriage is a thing of the past, but love and marriage are still with us and still closely interrelated. Most American marriages, particularly first marriages【C1】______young couples, are the result of【C2】______attraction and affection【C3】______than practical considerations.
In the United States, parents do not arrange marriages for their children. Teenagers begin【C4】______in high school and usually find mates through their own academic and social【C5】______.
Though young people feel【C6】______to choose their friends from【C7】______groups, most choose a mate of similar background.
This is【C8】______in part to parental guidance. Parents cannot select spouses for their children, but they can usually【C9】______choices by【C10】______disapproval of someone they consider unsuitable.【C11】______, marriages between members of different groups(interclass, inter-faith, and interracial marriages)are increasing, probably because of the greater【C12】______of today’s youth and the fact that they are restricted by【C13】______prejudices than their parents. Many young people leave their home towns to attend college,【C14】______in the armed forces,【C15】______pursue a career in a bigger city. Once away from home and family, they are more【C16】______to date and marry outside their own social group.
In mobile American society, interclass marriages are neither【C17】______nor shocking. Interfaith marriages are【C18】______the rise particularly between Protestants and Catholics. On the other hand, interracial marriage is still very uncommon. It can be difficult for interracial couples to find a place to live, maintain friendships, and【C19】______a family. Marriages between people of different national【C20】______ (but the same race and religion)have been commonplace here since colonial times.
【C17】
选项
A、scarce
B、rare
C、scared
D、relieved
答案
B
解析
A项表示“缺乏的,稀有的”;B项表示“稀有的,珍贵的”;C项表示“恐惧的”;D项表示“放心的”。本句的意思是:在美国这样的流动性社会,不同阶层的人们之间的婚姻既不——,也不令人惊奇。根据句意应该选用“rare”,其他三项用在此处均不恰当。所以应该选B。
