Need consensus

Here are few CR questions and i am looking for right answer and the reason behind it

q1.
In generation past, women and their suitors spent relatively little time together before getting married . Arranged marriages, in which the partners were not previously acquainted , were commonplace. most other marriages resulted from brief courtships, during which the future bride and groom spent little time alone together. yet marriages in modern day societies , in which partners date and even cohabitate for years, are much more likely to end in divorce than those of previous generations. despite all the self help books "relationship experts" and emphasis on romance, modern marriages are clearly lacking the quality of those in decades past.


which of the following would least weaken the above argument?

a. life in modern society places more challenges to marriages than did life in previous societies
b. divorce was more socially objectionable in past societies
c. most modern couples seek counseling before considering divorce
d. the quality of modern marriages is only slightly better than that associated with marriages of generations past
e. while a majority of marriages in past generations stayed intact, discreet extramarital affairs were more common than they are in contemporary society.
