试题解析
以下选项除_____ 外均表述正确。[A]在公共场合男性往往比女性健谈[B]最近的离婚案例中近一半是因为交流不畅造成的[C]女性将夫妻之间的交流看得很重要[D]女性在家往往比她们的伴侣更健谈答案解析:[B]事实细节题。本题可定位到第三段最后一句“Given the current divorce rate of nearly 50 percent,that amounts to millions of cases in the United States every year——a virtual epidemic of failedconversation.”联系上下文可知,目前的离婚率接近50%,按这个比例计算的话,在美国每年因交流不畅导致的离婚案例得有上百万,并不是说“最近的离婚案例中近一半是因为交流不畅造成的”,故[B]错误,为正确答案。第二段明确说明“公共场合男性比女性爱讲话”,所以[A]正确,排除。[c]和[D]也分别能在第四段和第二段找到依据,均为正确表述,故排除。
