Are you single but too busy to search for love? Then you need to try the latest dating phenomenon that is sweeping across the UK--speed dating.
Speed dating involves men and women meeting in a room and finding out as much as they can about possible partners in three minutes. It’s proving very popular with Britain’s young people who find that they haven’t got the time to meet that special one. At a speed dating event, you are given three minutes to talk, one on one, with a member of the opposite sex. Then a bell is rung and you move to another person and start chatting again. By the end of the evening you will have spoken with up to twenty men or women.!
If, by the end of a conversation, you fancy the person or would like to see them again, you write it down on a card. Then, if the other person also fancies you, the organisers will contact you with their details.
But is three minutes long enough to make an impression and work out if you want to see someone again? Research suggests that chemistry can be felt within the first thirty seconds of meeting someone, and that is what speed dating is all about, knowing quickly if you are going to like someone.
And what about romance? Is it possible to make a good judgment in such a short time? After all, people say you can’t hurry love. However, Britain will soon have its first marriage from a speed dating.
So, if you are on a mission to find Mr. or Miss Right, what have you got to lose? At worst, you still go honie on your own. But at best, the person of your dreams could be just three minutes away.
According to the passage, what is advisable for someone who is seeking a partner?
选项
A、Avoid hurrying love.
B、Go back home on his own.
C、Try speed dating.
D、Find a partner within 3 minutes.
答案
C
解析
文章最后两段揭示了作者对这一现象的看法。倒数第二段中提到“After all, people say you can’t hurry love.However,Britain will soon have its first marriage from a speed date.”注意however后作者强调的内容:第一对速配成功的婚礼即将举行。此处是对“people can’t hurry love”的反驳。文章最后一段又指出:速配最坏的结果是你还是一个人生活:但也可能帮你在三分钟内找到自己所爱的人。因此,可以看出作者是支持人们尝试这种新方式的。故选C。答案D不正确,因为“to find a partner within 3 minutes”是speed dating的一种积极的结果。
