阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

　　Did you ever hear of “marriage by capture”? Marriage by capture, also called bride kidnapping(绑架), has been practiced throughout history and around the world and goes back to primitive culture when tribal groups were hostile(敌视的)to each other．While trying to conquer a hostile tribe, the groom kidnapped the woman he wished to marry．The groom usually brought along a fellow-warrior as his “best man” to help kidnap the bride-to-be．

　　The bridesmaid, or the maid of honor, and the honeymoon are also relics(遗产)of bride kidnapping．In the old days, the bridesmaids were the women who helped the bride to get captured by the groom she wanted．Today a bridesmaid is one of the women who attend to the bride at a wedding and is usually a sister or close friend of the bride．The practice of having a honeymoon goes back to the time when the groom had to go into hiding with his kidnapped bride to avoid being discovered by her relatives．Today many newlyweds still keep their honeymoon plans a secret from their relatives．

　　The custom of marriage by capture may have gradually led to marriage by purchase．In order to avoid tribal warfare, the groom offered to pay a bride price to the bride's parents as compensation for their loss．The bride price is not the same as the dowry, which is the property a bride brings to her husband upon the marriage to help establish the new household．Giving a bride price is still practiced in many Asian countries．

　　The practice of “giving the bride away” in the modern wedding ceremony originated from the time when the bride's parents arranged her marriage and gave or sold her to the groom．Today at some wedding ceremonies, the minister may ask, “Who gives this woman to this man in marriage? ” To show his approval, the father will reply, “I do” and then give his daughter away to the groom by putting her hand into the groom's hand．

　　In the modern world, marriage by capture is widely considered a sex crime, though it is still practiced in some cultures, and marriage by purchase has almost died away．The modern version of marriage is marriage by mutual love．In most countries today, marriage is governed by civil law．Although most couples celebrate their wedding in the presence of a priest, rabbi, or minister, depending on their religious beliefs, they must have the official marriage license to make their marriage valid．

　　The modern marriage makes good use of many old traditions as symbols, making it colorful and romantic．In the United States and many other countries, the new bonds between a married couple are frequently represented by some old practices, such as the white wedding grown, the bride being carried across the threshold(门槛)of the new home, the flower girls, the exchange of wedding rings, the joining of hands, the throwing of rice, grain, or nuts, the wedding cake, and the bridal kiss．

(1)

The function of the second paragraph is to explain ________．
[　　]
A．	a possible solution to a problem raised in the article
B．	the origins of the maids of honor and the honeymoon
C．	who should be bridesmaids and how long a honeymoon should last
D．	why the maids of honor and the honeymoon are critical for newlyweds

(2)

We can infer from the article that ________．
[　　]
A．	a bride brings her husband a bride price to help establish the new household
B．	today the old practice of “giving the bride away” still exists but runs differently
C．	all of the old wedding practices are replaced by new ones
D．	the practice of “giving the bride away” is considered illegal in most countries

(3)

All of the following are old wedding traditions EXCEPT ________．
[　　]
A．	giving the bride away
B．	throwing rice, grain, or nuts
C．	carrying the bride across the threshold
D．	holding an official marriage license

(4)

This article is mainly about ________．
[　　]
A．	traditions of marriage
B．	illegal bride kidnapping
C．	modern wedding cultures across the world
D．	how many marriage traditions have died away
