More surprising, perhaps, than the current difficulties of traditional marriage is the fact that marriage itself is alive and【B1】. As Skolnick notes, Americans are a marrying people:【B2】to Europeans, more of us marry and we marry at a younger age.【B3】, after a decline in the early 1970s, the【B4】of marriage in the United States is now【B5】. Even the divorce rate needs to be taken in this pro marriage context: some 80 percent of【B6】individuals remarry.【B7】, marriage remains by far the preferred way of life for the vast majority of people in our remarry.
What has changed more than marriage is the nuclear family. Twenty-five years ago, the【B8】American family consisted of a husband, a wife, and two or three children.【B9】, there are many marriages in which couples have decided not to have any children. And there are many marriages where at【B10】some of the children are from the wife's【B11】marriage, or the husband's, or both. Sometimes these children spend all of their time with one parent from the【B12】marriages;【B13】they are shared between the two former parents.
Thus, one can find every type of family arrangement. There are marriages【B14】children; marriages with children from only the【B15】marriages; marriages with "full-time" children from both the present and former marriage;【B16】with "full-time" children from the present marriage and "part-time" children from former marriages. It is not all that【B17】for a child to have four parents and eight grandparents! These are【B18】changes from the traditional nuclear family.【B19】even so, even in the midst of all this,【B20】one constant: most Americans spend most of their adult lives married.
【B1】
A. surviving
B. thriving
C. booming
D. existing
听力原文: Collecting information about pre-employment and filling out an application form. are closely connected. However, filling out an application form. is much easier because you have total control and have enough time to think and plan.
That you are given a form. to fill out does not necessarily mean that you have to answer all the questions in it. If the form. contains unclear questions or terms and conditions, you can make some changes before signing it, or refuse to answer some of the questions. What you must realize is that those terms and conditions have been written by highly-paid lawyers. Each word is important, or it would not be there; and you can be sure that there is not anything there that is written with your interests in mind.
I know what I speak of because, as a lawyer for Litton Industries. I wrote the terms and conditions that were printed on the back of order forms. I wrote the most tiring terms and conditions anyone has ever seen. Still, 90 percent of the buyers would just sign on them without questioning anything. If anyone questions them, we would reach an agreement on something that was acceptable to both sides.
So when you see a preprinted application that contains questions or terms and conditions, read it all and read it slowly. If you don't like something, you can simply change the parts you don't like. Remember that everything can be settled by discussion. To what degree it can be settled depends on your position, of course, and that is something only you can determine.
