Reading 1 - Main Idea:

Sample answer: I basically agree with the author. I think it’s true that we tend to date people whom we think are about as attractive as we are. That’s true for most people that I know, and for myself, too. There are some exceptions, though. I think that some people who are very self-confident or who have lots of money can date people who are much more attractive than they are. You see those kinds of couples sometimes.

Sample answer: I would say that Mitch and Jane could probably make a good couple. They have more similarities; for example, they both like sports.

Women whose partners have DNA different from their own tend to have happier relationships.

1. Sample answer: I’m not a very organized person. Sometimes, I can be very messy and forgetful. So I think it’d be great if my wife could be very organized. She could help me remember things that I have to do.

2. Sample answer:I’ve never really thought about dating someone from a different ethnic group. I didn’t think my rather conservative parents would approve of it. But I guess I would consider it after reading this passage. I might also consider people whose interests are very different from mine. They might make relationships interesting.
