Marriage typically occurs much earlier than in past generations.

People tend to wait until their late twenties to marry.

During early adulthood, it is true that people tend to wait until their late twenties to marry. While some may still choose to get married at a younger age, the trend in recent years has shown that more individuals are waiting until they are in their late twenties or even thirties to tie the knot. This is due to a variety of factors, such as pursuing higher education, establishing a career, and prioritizing independence. Options A and C are incorrect because they make generalizations about marriage and career choices, which may not necessarily be true for everyone in early adulthood. Option D is incorrect because cognitive changes can still occur during early adulthood, although they may not be as significant as during adolescence.
