参考答案【正确答案：C】
细节题。当我们在文章中定位到本题的题干信息，不难发现原文中对应的句子是On the other hand, if she can find fulfillment through work outside the home, work and marriage can go together to create a stronger and more stable union.这句话的后半句告诉我们如果一个女性在外面的职业经历比较顺利，工作和婚姻可以相得益彰，营造一个更加持久和稳固的联盟，也就是婚姻关系。所以选项应该是C. their marriage ties can be strengthened。文章在这里是希望大家不要把女性参与更多的职场工作与离婚率提高做简单的因果联系，所以花了不少篇幅在谈这里面更为复杂的关系。其他三个选项都有悖原文传递的信息。
