(单选题)

What do the experts at the institute predict? ( )

A.Men are beginning to show an interest in the real estate market.

B.Men will reclaim the positions they lost to women.

C.Women will continue to invest in homes.

D.Women will resort to marriage for emotional security.

参考答案：C

参考解析：

定位到最后一段Experts at the institute expect the trend to continue, as home ownership provides financial and emotional security for women who are not yet ready to seek a "partner for life".可知该研究所的专家预计，这一趋势将持续下去，因为拥有住房为尚未准备好寻找“终身伴侣”的女性提供了经济和情感上的保障。选项A：男人们开始对房地产市场表现出兴趣，原文并没有涉及到，属于无中生有；选项B：男人将重新获得他们从女人那里丢掉的职位，无中生有；选项C：妇女将继续投资于住房，与原文表述意思一致，当选；选项D：女人会为了感情安全而诉诸婚姻，原文表达的是房子能给女性提供经济和情感上的保障，而不是婚姻。故本题正确答案选C。
