The small number of newborn babies, which has been caused by high prices and the changing social situation of women, is one of the most serious problems in Asia. When people talk about it, you can hear a word invented in Japan, “DINK”, which means Double Income No Kids.

    In many major Asian cities like Seoul, Singapore, and Tokyo, the cost of a house is extremely high. A young couple who want to buy their own house may have to pay about $3000,000 (though prices have fallen). For a flat with one bedrooms, one dining-room, a kitchen, and a bathroom, the couple will pay about $900 a month. What’s more, if they want to have a child, the child’s education is very expensive. For example, most kindergarten charges are at least $5.000 a year. In such a situation, it’s difficult to afford children.

The number of married women who want to continue working because they enjoy their jobs. However, if they want to have children, they immediately have serious problems. Though most companies allow women to leave their jobs for a short time to have a baby, they expect women with babies to give up their jobs. In short, if they want to bring up children properly, both parents have to work, but it is hard for mothers to work. Indeed, women who want to continue working have to choose between having children or keeping their jobs.

In a word, Asian governments must take steps to improve the present situation as soon as possible.

       Could you imagine your parents choosing your husband or wife for you? And can you imagine not setting eyes on him or her until your wedding day? This situation is common in India, the Middle East and many parts of Africa.Marriage customs around the world often differ from our own.We don’t realize that people in other places often get married in very different ways and with different motives.

       In many countries, marriage is a practical matter.A marriage provides a safe and stable home for the husband and wife.It also joins two families, which benefits the couple’s parents and makes them happy.Marriage also brings children, making sure the couple will be taken care of in old age.Because a marriage is important for the whole family, some cultures don’t let young people choose whom to marry.

       Just as there are many different reasons for marriage, there are also many different wedding rituals.Every culture has its own ways of bringing good luck to the happy couple.In a typical Western wedding, the bride seeks good luck by wearing “something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue”.Something old represents the past.Something new represents success in the future.Something borrowed reminds the bride she can get help from her friends and family.And something blue reminds her to be true to her husband.

       In Poland, one wedding tradition is not only lucky, but also very practical.The wedding guests pin money to the bride’s dress while she is dancing.The money is meant to bring luck and to help the young couple build their new life.In Bermuda, the young couple plants a tree in the yard of their new home.Once they move in, they take good care of the tree and make it grow.The planting of the tree is a good metaphor(比喻) for marriage.A truly good marriage is something that grows with care.

1.Which of the following statements does NOT support the idea that marriage is a practical matter?

       A.The couple may have a safe home through their marriage.

       B.The parents had better help their children choose whom to marry.

       C.A marriage benefits the couple’s parents and makes them happy.

       D.A marriage brings children who will take care of the couple when they are old.

2.The underlined word “rituals” (Para.3) means    

       A.forms    B.customs   C.traditions       D.ceremonies

3.Although cultures differ in different countries, one thing in common when a young couple gets married is that    

       A.people wish them to take care of each other

       B.people wish them to get practical benefits from the marriage

       C.people wish them to have good luck in their new life

       D.people wish them to make money at the wedding ceremony

4.Which of the following statements best summarizes(總結) the subject of this passage?

       A.People across the world get married in different ways and for different reasons.

       B.Every culture has its own ways of bringing good luck to the young couple.
