In most cultures throughout the world, there is an expectation that when a person reaches adulthood, marriage should soon follow. In the United States【C1】______, each month upwards of 168 000 couples wed.【C2】______to love, honor, and respect their chosen life mates【C3】______ death parts them. The expectation is deep-rooted.
【C4】______, the social functions, purposes, and relevance of marriage are rapidly changing in【C5】______society, making them less clear-cut than they have been【C6】______history. For instance, in a Pew Research Center random polling of over 2 000【C7】______, fewer than half of all of the adults polled indicated that【C8】______a man and a woman plan to spend the【C9】______of their lives together as a couple, it was important that they【C10】______marry.
Those of us who choose to marry have【C11】______reasons why we decide to marry the person we do. There is a【C12】______, however, in our Western, individualistic culture: We tend to marry for reasons that benefit ourselves,【C13】______for reasons that benefit the society【C14】______, such as found in collectivist cultures. Research in Western cultures has found, for example, that the number-one【C15】______people cite for marrying is to signify a lifelong commitment【C16】______someone they love. However, this reason is not the only response to why people wed—today, people get married for reasons of commitment, security, and personal belief systems. The Pew Research Center’s recent findings【C17】______that the main reasons people get married are for【C18】______happiness and commitment, and bearing and raising children. As the data from this【C19】______show us, there are racial, age, and religious differences in what people【C20】______to be the main purposes of getting married.
【C1】
选项
A、alone
B、solely
C、barely
D、again
答案
A
解析
根据句意,此处要表达:——在美国一个国家,每个月就有超过16.8万对男女结为夫妇。再结合本段首句中的“在世界上大多数文化中”可知,此处仅是列举美国作例子来说明结婚人数之多。故A)alone符合句意,此处表示“仅在美国一个国家”。
