问题     Marriage is, for many people, their most important relationship, the source of much happiness, and, for some, even adds extra years to their life. While the【C1】________between marriage and well-being has been【C2】________studied, predicting marital success is【C3】________. Exactly which people are likely to make successful【C4】________and what can they do to【C5】________the odds of being successful and happy in mariage?
    "The state of marriage is that it’s going in two directions. For people with a college degree, marriage is still going【C6】________However, Cherlin explains, "for people with less【C7】________, there’s less marriage and more break-ups." Happy marriage【C8】________are much less common in such households.
    Another predictor of successful marriages is the quality of a【C9】________childhood relation-ship with their parents. "The kind of relation-ships you have with your parents【C10】________up are predictive of marital quality in【C11】________Umberson says.
    Finally, there is a chicken-and-egg【C12】________to successful marriages. "People who are married are【C13】________than people who aren’t. The question is how much of this is【C14】________and how much is effect?" While natural selection【C15】________has an impact here, Cherlin says, "people who are【C16】________happy are more likely to get married, but marriage makes them even healthier."
    The【C17】________to good marriages is similar in Umberson’s view. "I think it’s the presence of emotional support, and that the person you’re with does make you feel emotionally supported," she says.【C18】________, "If your partner is【C19】________and demanding" all the time, those "are just red flags" in terms of marital happiness. And in terms of【C20】________, she notes, "marital strain is worse for your health than marital happiness is good for your health."  
【C3】

选项 A、easy
B、difficult
C、inevitable
D、useful

答案B

解析 由while可知,本题所在的主句与while引导的从句为转折关系,因此空格处应填入一个形容词,使主从句构成转折关系,主句说“婚姻和幸福的……得到了研究”,据此推测,从句是说“预测婚姻幸福不容易”。B项difficult“网难的”符合语境。A项easy“容易的”代入空格,主从句便无法形成转折关系,与While相矛盾。C项in-evitable意为“不可避免的”,根据常识,也知预测婚姻成功并不是非做不可的事。D项useful意为“有用的”。文中没有线索表明预测婚姻成功是否有用。
