问题     The most fundamental group to which a person belongs is the family. The institution of the family exists in almost every human culture. It is considered by behavioral scientists to be one of the oldest institutions in human history.
    The family unit serves many important functions. The performance of these functions is the reason for the family’s importance. Above all, the family serves as a mechanism of species survival.
    Families also have important economic functions. In primitive societies, the tasks of gathering food and providing shelter were divided among family members. Today, both husband and wife may work and share the duties of homemaking and child rearing.
    In addition to its survival and economic functions, the family gives its members social status. In many societies, a person is not considered a complete member until he has married and produced children. Finally, the family helps to meet the basic emotional needs of a person through the love and support received from parents, siblings (兄弟或姐妹)，and relatives.
It can be concluded from the passage that the family is______.
选项 A、undergoing many changes
B、the only useful social institution
C、likely to exist in future societies
D、not the same today as it was in the past
答案C
解析 从文中我们看出，家庭作为一个组织单位贯穿于人类历史中，它具有的几种重要功能在现今社会里还没有哪个社会机构能代替，因此我们可以推断出，家庭很可能在未来社会里仍然存在。
