一、阅读理解

When Sally and Tom got married, people thought they were the perfect couple. But things didn't work out. First they tried a separation. Living apart made them realize that they should never have gotten married. In May, their marriage ended in divorce.

When Jesse and Rachel got married, they knew they wanted to live in a traditional nuclear family -- mother, father, and biological children. Rachel had been born out of wedlock. Because her parents had never married, she had never met her biological father. Jesse's mother had been widowed. His father's early death made Jesse want to have a large family. So they decided that a more traditional arrangement was what they wanted.

When Doris and Henry decided to get married, their friends were surprised. Doris and Henry were only 20 years old, and their friends expected that the couple would delay marriage at least until they finished college. At the beginning of the 20thcentury the average age at which people married began to decline.

Sue doesn't see why anyone else should care whether or not she is married. When strangers ask her wh 广东开放大学 ether she is married, she tells them that her marital status is none of their business.

The proportion of people who never marry has been increasing. Many people, including gay men （男同性恋者）and lesbians（女同性恋者）, no longer feel that they must marry.

Regular child care provided outside home or by someone other than the mother does not in itself undermine healthy emotional connections between mothers and their 15-month-old infants, according to a long-term national study. The finding holds even if care begins during the first 3 months after birth and runs for 30 hours or more per week.

Among infants who receive unkind and unresponsive care from their mothers, however, the mother-child relationship may be damaged. "This research helps us put apart complexities regarding child care that have not previously been studied in detail," contends Jay Belsky, a psychologist.

The investigation consists of 1,153 children and their families living in or near Boston. The youngsters, no more than 1 month old when they entered the study in 1991, will be tracked until the age of 7. Experimenters administered questionnaires to mothers in their homes and videotaped baby caretakers interacting with the kids at ages 1, 6 and 15 months. Independent observers rated the quality of each child care efforts and noted infant nervousness. Unlike most previous studies, this one allows researchers to observe each caretaker's personality at child nursing, and kids' emotional reactions by the equipment.
