rise =increase : sự gia tăng

 will be more single people than married people. Fifty years ago, this would have been
socially unacceptable in Britain.
In the past, people got married and stayed married. Divorce was very difficult,
expensive and took a long time. Today, people's views on marriage are changing. Many
couples, mostly in their twenties or thirties, live together (cohabit) without getting married.

cohabit (v)

people between the ages of 16 and 59 were cohabiting in Great Britain. Cohabiting couples
are also starting families without first being married. Before 1960 this was very unusual, but
in 2001 around 23 per cent of births in the UK were to cohabiting couples.
People are generally getting married at a later age now and many women do not want
to have children immediately. They prefer to concentrate on their jobs and put off having a
baby until late thirties.
The number of single-parent families is increasing. This is mainly due to more
marriages ending in divorce, but some women are also choosing to have children as lone
parents without being married.
