The current annual marriage rate in the United States --- about 9 new marriages for every 1,000 people -- is【S1】______higher than it is in other industrialized countries. However, marriage is no longer as【S2】______as it was several decades ago.
The proportion of American adults who are married【S3】______from 72 percent in 1970 to 60 percent in 2002.

Experts【S5】______that about the same proportion of today’s young adults will eventually marry.

Besides, young adults of the 1950s married younger than did any【S7】______generation in U.S. history. Today’s later age of marriage is in line with the age of marriage between 1890 and 1940.

Experts do not【S9】______on why the "marriage rush" of the late 1940s and 1950s occurred, but most social scientists believe it represented a response to the return of peaceful life and【S10】______after 15 years of severe economic depression and war.

选项
答案
K
解析
空格所在句的however表明上下文之间形成语义转折,前文一直在说美国历史上的higher rates,此处语义转折,而且用no longer说明现在的婚姻没有几十年以前普遍,故填入[K] widespread。
