The United States has historically had higher rates of marriage than those of other industrialized countries. The current annual marriage【21】in the United States—about 9 new marriages for every 1,000 people—is【22】higher than it is in other industrialized countries. However, marriage is【23】as widespread as it was several decades ago.【24】of American adults who are married【25】from 72 percent in 1970 to 60 percent in 2002.

Men and women in the United States marry【31】the first time at an average of five years later than people【32】in the 1950s.【33】, young adults of the 1950s married younger than did any previous【34】in U. S. history. Today’s later age of marriage is【35】the age of marriage between 1890 and 1940.【36】, a greater proportion of the population was married (95 percent) during the 1950s than at any time before【37】. Experts do not agree on【38】the "marriage rush" of the late 1940s and 1950s occurred, but most social scientists believe it represented a【39】to the return of peaceful life and prosperity after 15 years of severe economic【40】and war.
