39、 incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully.

But here, with th

40、e marriage season approaching, many of them turn quickly to a Sunday feature that is particularly Indian the columns and columns of marriage advertisements in which young people look for husbands and wives. This is a relatively modern change in the age-old custom of the arranged marriage. The thousa

41、nds of advertisements published each week increasingly reflect social changes that are coming to this traditional society. For example, although women are still usually described in terms of appearance, or skills in “the wifely arts“, information a bout their earning power is entering more and more

42、of the advertisements. This reflects the arrival in India of the working wife. Divorce, which used to be almost unheard of in India, is sometimes now mentioned in the advertisements as in the case of a woman whose advertisement in a New Delhi newspaper explained that she had been “the innocent party

43、“ when her marriage broke up. Because the custom of the dowry(嫁妆 ) is now illegal, some advertisements say “no dowry,“ or “simple marriage,“ which means the same thing.

44、mber of advertisements promise “caste not important,“ or “girls abilities will be main consideration.“ The majority of them, however, still require not only caste, such as Brahman or Kshatriya, but also a certain home region or ethnic origin. In a land where light skin is often regarded as socially

45、preferable, many also require that a woman have a “wheat color“ complexion or that a man be “tall, fair and handsome.“ Advertisements are placed and eagerly read by a wide range of people in the upper classes, mostly in cities. Many of them receive dozens of answers. “Theres nothing embarrassing abo

46、ut it,“ explained a Calcutta businessman advertising for a son-in-law. “Its just another way of broadening the contacts and increasing the possibility of doing the best one can for ones daughter.“ Because of high unemployment and a generally poor standard of living here, one of the best attractions

47、a marriage advertisement can offer is a permit to live abroad, especially in Canada or the United States. A person who has one can get what he wants. For example, a man had an American immigration permit was able to say, “Only girls from rich, well educated families need apply.“ 48 Many Indians woul

48、d like to read Sunday features of marriage advertisements in newspaper in the approach of _. 49 What social change is reflected in the advertisement that includes a womans earning power? 50 One change in the traditional Indian marriage is the appearance of seldom-mentioned word _ in the marriage adv

49、ertisement. 51 Which group of people are the passionate readers of the marriage advertisements? 52 Because the life in India is generally hard, one of the most appealing factors in a marriage advertisement is _.
