中文摘要：

随着我国婚姻解体数量的增多，再婚也日益普遍。基于北京市人日抽样调查数据和婚姻登记数据的计算结果表明，北京近年来失婚女性的再婚率只有男性的40％左右。通过对再婚人口的婚次、年龄、教育程度和户籍等方面的特征及其匹配特点的分析，可以看到女性在再婚过程中相对男性处于明显的弱势地位，而“男高女低”的婚配模式则是造成城市女性再婚困境的主要原因。

英文摘要：

Along with the increasingly larger volume of marriage breakup, remarriage become common cross the country today. The analysis of the data from the population sampling survey and marriage registration in Beijing shows that the remarriage rate of divorced or widowed females is only 40% of that of males in Beijing. Further analysis of the characteristics of the remarried such as the marital history, age, education, hukou, and their matching pattern shows that the females are obviously at a disadvantage comparing to males in remarriage-seeking. The main reason for urban females＇ remarriage dilemma is the marriage gradient pattern in China at present, in other words, the males tend to get married with those females with relative lower social status such as education, wealth, vocations etc.
