②从陈述现象转到思考原因：Lookingat…wecan'thelpwondering…从现象转入评论；whatisbehind…属于高分短语。

③分析”毕婚”原因之一：残酷的就业竞争使双方相互扶持。也能得到双方家长资助。

④分析“毕婚”原因之二：毕婚族比网恋、拜金恋有感情基础。thereisnodenyingthat…isamajorfactor及make…amore…choice为加分搭配。

⑤转入剖析，干脆利落。“毕婚”也可能埋下了不能担当婚后责任的隐患。句型Chancesarethat…以及词汇bumpinginto，undermine都是高分之选。

⑥以Allinall，Idon'tthinkit'sagoodideato…澄明自己观点，结构完整。
