What is your opinion about divorce?
Tips
Traditionally, a couple should be faithful to each other. Many couples stayed married for the sake of their loyalty to each other and for the good of children, even though their marriages were far from happy. In their eyes, getting divorced means violating the traditional family values and would bring shame to both of them.

Discussion :Would you like to marry a man or a girl from another culture? Why or why not? Give your ideas in your group.What benefits and differences may a couple from different cultures have in your opinion? (e.g.: in terms of language, food, family pressure, social pressure , etc. ) •food dumplings pizza bread with butter•language misunderstandings•parental pressure•social pressure, etc.All societies have their own form of marriage. The ideas that we have about marriage are part of our cultural background; they are part of our basic beliefs about right and wrong. As we study marriage, we find that different cultures have solved the problem of finding a spouse in different ways. Finding a spouse with whom we can spend a lifetime has always been an important concern. Despite all these unusual traditional ways of finding a marriage partner, one idea is the same throughout the world: Marriage is a basic and important part of human life.There are many factors for the failure to marry each other. Apart from cultural differences, some other factors exert great influence on one’s marriage. To start with, the racial difference is one of the biggest obstacles to one’s marriage. Many lovers, driven by the true love for each other, go through diverse difficulties and hardships, only to part with each other in the end. Besides, the different family backgrounds sometimes prevent the lovers from getting married because they meet with resistance from their families. Some father may say like that: “I’d rather see you dead than know you were with that wh ite girl.”The American Way: MarriageIt all begins with engagement. Traditionally, a young man asks the father of his sweetheart for permission to marry her. If the father agrees, the man later proposes to her.Often he tries to surprise her by "popping the question" in a romantic way. Sometimes the couple just decides together that the time is right to get married. The man usually gives his fiancee a diamond ring as a symbol of their engagement. They may be engaged for weeks, months or even years. As the big day approaches, bridal showers and bachelor's parties provide many useful gifts. Today many couples also receive counseling during engagement. This prepares them for the challenges of married life.Summary and speaking tasksGail and I decided to get married out of ________, ____________________, but our wedding plans met with some _________.Why did we decide to get married?Gail and I had experienced _____and ______ in two years, now we come to _______, ______________ and ________ each other.We c onfronted ___________ and ________ of each other’s character.

Unit 3 Section AMarriage Across the NationsI. Background Information1. Mixed marriage:It is well known that mixed marriage is that spouse are come from different races or religions. This wedding can be seen very dangerous and risk for the centuries ago, because it can be considered evil or immoral. In west countries, people would be buried by church if they dared to defy the law!But now, with the modern society becomes more and more open and advanced, it is easy to acceptable for most people about mixed marriage. Marriage is just marriage, it is nothing to do with races, religions and countries, every person can marriage as long as they love each other.Compared with traditional marriage, mixed marriage has two advantage. One is that it can promote the harmonious relationship between two different races or religions, weaken and reduce the possibility of the conflict. The other one is that it will improve human races gene, I believe mixed marriage can make races stronger, more beautiful and more smart generation by generation.So, let's face the mixed marriage correctly with the comprehensive heart, it is nothing but just only marriage.2. Racist:The terms racism and racist is sometimes used by those who feel it is a different concept where negativity or hatred is not prescribed. People who call themselves "racists" tend to be separatists (or white nationalists) and sometimes see a difference between themselves and white supremacists. Many people who study racism, such as Betty A. Dobratz and Stephanie Shanks-Meile, contend that terms such as white separatism and white nationalism are euphemisms that have been adopted by neo-Nazi and racist groups in order to make their views seem less extreme. White separatists reject such claims. For instance, Kevin Alfred Strom has defined white separatism this way: :"A separatist may believe that his race is superior to other races in some or all characteristics, but this is not his essential belief. The separatist is defined by his wish for freedom and independence for his people. He wishes them to have their own society, to be led by their own kind, to have a government which looks out for their interests alone. The separatist does not wish to live in a multiracial society at all, so he naturally has no desire to rule over other races—since such rule necessitates the multiracial society the separatist wants to avoid at all costs.II. Text AnalysisMain idea of the text:The text is mainly about the mixed marriage between Gail and Mark, a nd Gail’s parents’ reaction toward their wedding plans.Devices for developing it:1. Narration in the first personThe text is a typical example of narration given in the first person. Through his narrative, the writer, a black man, tells the reader his mixed marriage and givesa vivid description of the attitudes of his girlfriend’s parents toward a mixedmarriage. This can be seen especially in the first part of the text.2. Argumentation:The argumentation goes hand in hand with narration. This can be seen clearly in the second part, especially in mother’s opinions.3. Dialogues:Mother’s and father’s reactions toward Gail’ marriage are presented in Dialogues in last two parts of the text.Structure of the whole text:The text falls into three parts: the mixed marriage of Gail and Mark, the reaction of Gail’s mother toward their wedding plans, and the response of Gail’s father toward their wedding plan.Part I (Paras. 1-4)Main idea:The mixed marriage of Gail and Mark. (Two years of living together, plus racial and cultural differences, enhanced the relationship between Gail and Mark so much that they decided to marry even though they did not know what the future would hold for them as a mixed couple.)Devices for developing it:1. Narration (叙事法)Through narration in the first person, the author tells the reader: To avoid the mistake made by many unhappy mixed marriages, we lived together for two years, which enhanced our love for each other so much that we decided to get married. 2. In the first person.(第一人称)Through his narrative, the writer, a black man, tells the reader his mixed marriage.For example:Para. 1: Gail and I imagined a quiet wedding. During our two years together we had experienced the usual ups and downs of a couple learning to know, understand, and respect each other. …Para. 2: Our racial and cultural differences enhanced our relationship and taught us a great deal about tolerance, compromise, and being open with each other. Gail sometimes … and I was…Part II (Paras. 5-9)Main idea: The reaction of Gail’s mother to the mixed marriage. ( She reaffirmed that Mark’s color was not the problem. Her biggest worry was that Gail might be marrying Mark for the same wrong reasons as she had).Devices for developing it:1. ArgumentationOne of the common ways to present arguments is first to reject some ideas and then present some other ideas. Gail’s mother used this method to ask her daughter to make sure that Mark was her right lifelong partner.1) Present original idea : To start with (Para. 7)2) Reject the idea: But …(Para. 7)3) Present others’ opinion : Yes, my friends talk. .. (Para. 7)4) Reject the opinion:But they live in a different world. So, color is not the problem. (Para. 7)5) Present some other idea: My biggest worry is …(Para. 7)2. ExamplesThe mother presents her opinion and gives an example to support it. For example,1)Present some other idea (Para. 7)2)Give example of her own broken marriage (para 7)3. DialoguesThe writer narrated Gail’s mother response to their marriage through the dialogues between Gail and her mother in paragraph 5 to 9Part III (Paras. 10-21)Main idea :The response of Gail’s father to the marriage. He quoted statistics and gave examples to persuade his daughter to change her mind. but Gail thought they would rather marry now and worry later.Devices for developing it: Dialogues.III.
