In American society, romantic love is considered the main reason for people to marry. On the other hand, in some societies, roma

ntic love is considered a form of obsession or madness. In fact, even in many societies where "true love" is not considered a form of insanity, arranged marriages are still the norm. For example, in many cultures it's believed that marriage is basically an economic arrangement. Thus, a farmer needs a wife both to bear children and to share the farm work while raising new "hands" as additional farm labor. In other societies, marriage is mainly about cementing connections between families. Indeed, most marriages between members of European royal or aristocratic lineages were primarily aimed at creating trust, loyalty, and mutual obligations between privileged and powerful families. What is the main idea in this paragraph? A. True love is a sound basis for marriage. B. Marriage is usually a family affair. C. Arranged marriages are more practical than those based on romantic love. D. Different societies have different ideas about the purpose of marriage.

The answer would be D. 
"A" wouldn't be the correct answer because although the paragraph mentions true love, it is just a topic in the paragraph, not what the paragraph is about.

"B" Again, this idea is mentioned in the paragraph but if you look at it closely this is not what the paragraph is about.

"C" This is something that you might get from reading this paragraph, but it isn't actually saying this. Don't get the two confused

"D" is the correct answer because this is the whole idea and whole picture of the paragraph.
