第三篇
The State of Marriage Today
Is there something seriously wrong with marriage today?During the past 50 years,the rate of divorce in
the United States has exploded:almost 50% of marriages end in divorce now,and the evidence suggests it is
going to get worse.If this trend continues,it will lead to the breakup of the family,according to a spokesper-
son for the National Family Association.Some futurists predict that in 100 years,the average American will
marry at least four times ,and extramarital（婚外的）affairs will be even more common than they are now.
But what are the reasons for this ,and is the picture really so gloomy（阴暗的）?The answer to the first
question is really quite simple:marriage is no longer the necessity it once was.The institution of marriage has
been based for years partly on economic need.Women used to be economically dependent on their
husbands一as they usually didn't have jobs outside the home.But with the rising number of women in well-
paying jobs,this is no longer the case,so they don't feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage.
In answer to the second question , the outlook may not be as pessimistic（悲观的）as it seems. While the
rate of divorce has risen;the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen very much,so marriage is still
quite popular. In addition to this,many couples now simply live together and don't bother to marry. These
couples are effectively married,but they do not appear in either the marriage or divorce statistics.In fact,
more than 50%of first marriages survive.
So is marriage really an outdated institution?The fact that most people still get married indicates that it
isn't. And it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people:they suffer less from
stress and its consequences,such as heart problems,and married men generally consider themselves more
contented than their single counterparts. Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage and
apply it to all of our relationships!
