Task 6. Read the text “Courtship and Marriage in North America” and
answer the following questions.
If a couple wants to get married in North America they can do it at just
about any time and just about any place. The only three requirements for a
marriage to take place are as follows: 1) the man and woman must agree that
they both want to get married and that they want to marry each other; 2) the
ceremony must take place before an official (a judge or a religious leader);
3) a marriage ceremony must have witnesses. There is no particular age to get
married but the majority of people in North America marry when they are
between 20 and 30 years old. In Canada women normally get married for the
first time at 25 and men – at 27. Couples often get to know each other through
25
