"Al regular las ruptura conyugales, el divorcio las facilita. Ya no hay que resignarse ante un matrimonio paratoda la vida", seala la catedrtica de Sociologa Ins Alberdi. Pronostica un aumento de las crisis por varios

factores: "Por un lado influye la creciente aceptacin social del divorcio. Por otro, el aumento de lasexpectativas vitales, que provoca un alza de las exigencias en las relaciones de pareja. Al tiempo, crecen lasalternativas fuera del matrimonio".

Otro elemento que incide es la autonoma econmica de la mujer, creciente por su incorporacin al mercadolaboral. "En general, los hombres se culpabilizan menos por dejar a su mujer si sta trabaja. Y las mujeres nose ven obligadas a seguir con el marido por razones de supervivencia", explica Alberdi.

"Hay mucho menos espritu de sacrificio en la pareja. Los jvenes no aguantan un pelo, y los mayores secontagian un poco", tercia Zarraluqui. "El divorcio no tiene edad", aade. Pese a la carencia de datos oficialessobre el perfil de los divorciados, el letrado asegura que "las rupturas entre ancianos crecen mucho, sobre todo

a partir del momento de la jubilacin".

Tanto los abogados de familia como al menos dos asociaciones de separados estn a favor de una reformalegislativa que permita solicitar el divorcio sin tener que pasar previamente por la separacin. Hay quienaade la peticin de un fondo pblico que abone las prestaciones de los padres o madres morosos y se lasreclame posteriormente.

Traduccin (de un alumno):

"The regulation of couplesseparations is made easier by divorce. One no longer has to resign oneself to amarriage for life", says Sociology professor Ins Alberdi. She predcicts the increase of crises for severalreasons: "On the one hand, divorce has become more acceptable socially. On the other, one can observe agrowth of peoplesexpectations from life and this contributes towards people expecting more fromrelationships. At the same time, alternatives outside marriage are more common."

Ejercicio 2, parte 1. Traduccin inglsespaol.

"The first generation of the new wave, whose first novels seemed to reviewers to form some kind of group,were John Wain, Kingsley Amis and Iris Murdoch. The common factor was a cheerful desire to cock a snookat respectable society, at safe, middleclass prefessions, at dull provincial institutions. The typical hero ismiddleclass himself, but alienated from it, pricking its pretensions both social and cultural. Lucky Jim at the

madrigalsinging party of his repulsive professor, Welch, is a typical fifties hero in a typical predicament. Thetone of the books is antiestablishment, taking that word in its usual specific sense (the people who hold thereigns of power, who occupy the influential opinionforming positions in the nation at large), and in its moregeneral one (those who sit on any sort of plum job, and have a degree of patronage to dish out). Lucky Jim hasto keep in well with his professor as well as pretend to write his alltootypical thesis throwing"pseudolight... on nonproblems;" inevitably, as a fifties hero, he proves inept at both tasks. Typically too,he wealks off at the end of the novel with the pneumatic blonde from the metropolis, where a cushy job awaitshim. Fantasy, obviously, is already entering in; what is more dangerous, the justified rebellion andsnookcocking seem to end in nothing more than rejecting the phony and embracing the meretricious.
