爱情与婚姻英文演讲稿loveand
LOVE and MARRIAGEHello everybody, maybe it is too early for us to talk about marriage, but we still have the right to put up our opinions about love and marriage.People often say that there is no reason to love someone,but I want to ask all of you a question: except the love of parents for child, everyone here, who can love a person for nothing? Or are you willing to love someone even if you will get nothing? Of cause you won’t. So the love is conditioned,maybe you don’t want to get anything from the person you love, but you desire his or her love, do you think so? So this is the premise of love. So all of us are being loved purposefully by others and loving others purposefully.Since there is no or less love without purpose, we can’t expect there will be anyone to love us for nothing. But we can make ourselves possession the advantages if we want to be loved by the other or if we want to love others better. And also at the same time, if you love someone, just forget some of your purpose. Good love likes the feeling of walking in grassland; it makes your world so wild and so bright. Bad love like a well, it can only make your world more and narrower. Good love is that you can see the world through someone; bad love is that you will miss the world for one person.The true love is that no matter how much difference you have and no matter how many tempt around you and no matter how the world outside changes, you just keep going with the person you love and you will never think of breaking up with each other and you will become braver and stronger with him or her.Have you ever experienced one’s promising and did the promise come true? There are so many things we thought we would love them forever, but the forever promise was made at the time when you have the strongest hope to hold them. So we should learn to take promise as a little part of love. If you get it or if it come true, you will be happy, and if you lost it or if it failed, you will be sad and then you will learn something from it, just don’t try to ask the reason why the promise did broken. So maybe marriage is the best kind of form of promise for women, but most of men think that marriage is the tomb of love and marriage has no relationship with love , but in my opinion, if there is no marriage, love is just a lonely and wandering ghost,and it has no place to burry itself. Love is the premise of marriage and marriage is the sublimate of love. For most of people, love is sweet and romantic, but marriage is realistic. According to statistics, the divorce rate in China is keep rising nowadays, the affection between husband and wife is waking and going bad in gradually, the family broken up and left all pains and bad influences to children, perhaps this is a social phenomenon, we can’t realize it or change it.In fact, marriage is something that you find someone who will never leave you alone and you will company each other to through the rest of life, it’s the best happiness in this world. I don’t know why some people just take marriage as a burden or treat it as a joke. Marriage is holy and it matters the happiness of two people, you should make sure that the one is whom you want in the vast world at the second you are ready to build a family with.In my growing years, I have learned from my parents that their love had being washedby time and common life all the time, but it had never vanished. On contrary, they care more about each other in health and mood and in many other aspects. Maybe they had complained, but they had never suspected their marriage and their own choices, they had never suspected their love. Their marriage had become not only something about moral and duty but also a kind of deepest relationship and love.So I think that marriage needs to be plowing and weeding, we should learn to understand, respect, and cherish. If your marriage will not defeated by the reality, then your love will last forever and when both of you become old hand in hand, you will find that all the hardships and frustrations are sweet and romantic.Thank you!。

爱情和婚姻英文作文
爱情和婚姻英文作文英文:Love and marriage are two concepts that are intertwined but also distinct. Love is an emotional connection between two people that is based on mutual affection, respect, and understanding. Marriage, on the other hand, is a legal and social institution that formalizes the relationship between two people and provides them with certain rights and responsibilities.In my opinion, love is the foundation of a successful marriage. Without love, a marriage can quickly become a burden or a source of conflict. However, love alone is not enough to sustain a marriage. It takes commitment, communication, and compromise to make a marriage work.For example, my grandparents have been married for over 60 years. They have faced many challenges and obstacles over the years, but they have always been committed to eachother and to their marriage. They communicate openly and honestly with each other, and they are willing to compromise and make sacrifices for each other. Their love for each other has only grown stronger over time, and they are a true inspiration to me.中文:爱情和婚姻是两个相互交织但又有区别的概念。

Wedding Ceremony
When the wedding party is gathered by the altar, the bride and groom exchange vows. It is traditional to use the words "To have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part". Following the vows, the couple exchange rings. Wearing the wedding ring on which finger? It is worn on the fourth finger of the left hand because of a very old (and incorrect) idea that a vein or nerve runs from this finger directly to the heart.

专四作文,恋爱与结婚
专四作文,恋爱与结婚英文回答:Love and marriage are two intertwined aspects of human relationships. Love is the emotional connection between two individuals, while marriage is the legal and social institution that formalizes their commitment to each other. Both love and marriage have their own significance and play important roles in our lives.Love is often described as a powerful force that brings people together. It is a feeling of deep affection and attachment towards someone. Love can make us feel happy, fulfilled, and complete. It can also bring out the best in us and inspire us to become better individuals. Love is often associated with phrases like "head over heels," "love at first sight," and "soulmates."Marriage, on the other hand, is a formal union between two people that is recognized by law and society. It is acommitment to share a life together, to support and carefor each other, and to build a future as a couple. Marriage is often symbolized by a wedding ceremony, where vows are exchanged and promises are made. Phrases like "tying the knot," "for better or for worse," and "happily ever after" are commonly used to describe marriage.While love is the foundation of a successful marriage,it is not the only factor that determines its longevity. Trust, communication, and mutual respect are also crucialfor a lasting and fulfilling marriage. Love can fade over time, but a strong marriage is built on a solid foundationof trust and understanding. It requires effort and commitment from both partners to overcome challenges and maintain a healthy relationship.中文回答:恋爱和结婚是人际关系中紧密相连的两个方面。

They have a lot of experience on insight into others, so they can’t be wrong.2.Where do you want to go to prepare for your marriage? And why?(1)I’d rather stay at home than going out for my marriage.Because it will save a lot of money for our future life.I wouldn’t like the life with no money to use after the marriage.(2)I will choose to spend my honeymoons on travelling abroad.It is the most important days of my life.The beautiful scenery will become the most unforgettable experience of my memory.3.what do you think of Qianzhongshu's words: marriage is the grave of love?I don’t think so.Marriage brings responsibility to the couple, but it is not the necessary reason to destroy love.Many old couples’ love can prove all of this, the couples may have disagreements, quarrels after their marriages.But if they only put judgement on the things instead of complainting of others, the bad things will go away soon.Moreover , the relationship willbecome more intimate between the couples.The children are the achievement of love.With the child , the marriage becomes more beautiful.4.Do you accept flash marriage? why or why not ?Yes ,because we can take the chance to have the person who you like very much at the first sight to be our partner in time.Moreover, as we all know in modern times ,time is a very important factor ,flash marriage saves much time compared to the common marriage.Meanwhile ,in correct time run into the right person is the most important ,and the speed of marriage is less influential in one’s happin ess.Finally, whether the love of Marathon type can definitely understand the other party, can definitely promise marriage of last long happiness? Appearantly the answer is not.No, Firstly, as in flash marriage we don’t learn much about the other part , so in some degree the marriage will not last long, and the happiness very short ,but the harm it does to us can be very great.Also, some persons who are for the flash marriage may have the purpose of getting the partner’s property or some other benefits, so that kind of happiness is not true.when the other person find out that ,the emotion between the two person will be likely to break.Thus, the flash marriage may raise the rate of divorce, and make the society less st but not the least ,I am a traditional person and flash marriage disobey the tradition of china.5.What are the important qualities in choosing your marriage partner? A.Well, In my opinion, Be effort is the first important.That is, putting a lot of time and energy into the marriage in order for the marriage to become what we want it to be.Efforts will lead the marriage to a bright future.Then, supportive, I will be much more respectful of my wife if she support me without reserve.Otherwise, if I have difficulties I'll feel as though she's adding to my troubles.Third,be optimism is weighty too, when the family is facing something tough, Optimistic will help us to make it through.6.What do you think is the reason which resulted the increasing divorce rate in modern society? A.I think one of the most important reason is the financial situation.As economic developing, the personal incoming increase, the financial dependence become weaker and weaker, that lead the divorce rate increase.In the past or some poverty-stricken areas, where people live with low living standards, to live together will save more money than live alone, the divorce rate could be low.So, as economic situation improves, the divorce rate increases.第二篇:关于爱情与婚姻关于爱情与婚姻婚姻也许会埋没了爱情的炽烈和浪漫,但如果没有婚姻,爱情只能去流浪。

爱情与婚姻相关的英语作文Title: Love and Marriage: A Journey of Companionship。
Love and marriage are two intertwined concepts that have fascinated humanity for centuries. They are often portrayed as the pinnacle of human connection, the ultimate expression of companionship and commitment. In this essay, we will explore the dynamics of love and marriage, their significance in contemporary society, and the factors that contribute to their success.To begin with, love is a multifaceted emotion that encompasses various feelings, including affection, attraction, and attachment. It is often described as a profound connection between two individuals that goes beyond mere physical attraction. Love nurtures empathy, understanding, and a sense of belonging, laying the foundation for a meaningful relationship.Marriage, on the other hand, is a formalized unionbetween two people, recognized by law and society. It is often seen as a public declaration of commitment and a symbol of stability and security. Marriage provides a framework for shared goals, responsibilities, and life experiences, fostering a deeper bond between partners.One of the key elements that contribute to a successful marriage is communication. Effective communication allows partners to express their thoughts, feelings, and needs openly and honestly. It promotes understanding, trust, and intimacy, helping to resolve conflicts and strengthen the relationship.Trust is another vital component of a healthy marriage. Trust involves believing in your partner's integrity, reliability, and commitment. It is built on honesty, consistency, and mutual respect. Trust creates a sense of security and emotional safety, allowing partners to be vulnerable and authentic with each other.Mutual respect is also essential for a harmonious marriage. Respect involves valuing each other's opinions,feelings, and boundaries. It means treating your partner with kindness, dignity, and empathy. Mutual respect lays the groundwork for equality and cooperation, fostering a sense of partnership and solidarity.Furthermore, flexibility and adaptability are crucial for navigating the ups and downs of married life. Life is unpredictable, and couples must be willing to adjust to changes and challenges together. Flexibility allows partners to accommodate each other's needs and differences, while adaptability enables them to grow and evolve as individuals and as a couple.In addition to these factors, shared values, goals, and interests play a significant role in sustaining afulfilling marriage. Couples who share common values and aspirations are more likely to build a strong foundationfor their relationship. They can support each other's growth and development, while pursuing their dreams and ambitions together.It is important to acknowledge that every marriage willface its share of trials and tribulations. Conflict is inevitable in any relationship, but it is how couples manage and resolve conflicts that determine the strength of their bond. Conflict resolution skills, compromise, and forgiveness are essential for overcoming obstacles and building resilience as a couple.In conclusion, love and marriage are complex yet beautiful aspects of the human experience. They require patience, commitment, and effort to flourish. Bycultivating open communication, trust, respect, flexibility, and shared values, couples can create a fulfilling and enduring partnership that stands the test of time.。
爱情与婚姻英语作文
Love and marriage are two of the most profound and significant aspects of human life.They are often intertwined,yet they exist as separate entities with their own unique characteristics and implications.This essay will explore the relationship between love and marriage,the differences between them,and the importance of understanding their distinct roles in our lives.The Essence of LoveLove is a complex emotion that encompasses a range of feelings,from affection and tenderness to passion and deep attachment.It is often described as a force that can inspire individuals to act in ways they might not otherwise consider,and it is a central theme in literature,music,and art across cultures.Love can be experienced in various forms,such as romantic love,familial love,and platonic love.Romantic love,in particular,is often associated with the desire for a deep,intimate connection with another person.The Institution of MarriageMarriage,on the other hand,is a social institution that has evolved over time and varies across cultures.It is a legally recognized union between two individuals,often involving a public ceremony and the exchange of vows.Marriage can be seen as a social contract that provides a framework for the establishment of a family unit,the raising of children, and the sharing of resources.It is also a means of social and economic stability,offering a sense of security and continuity.The Relationship Between Love and MarriageWhile love is often a catalyst for marriage,it is not a prerequisite in all cultures or societies.Historically,marriages have been arranged for reasons such as political alliances,economic benefits,or social status,with love developing over time or remaining absent.However,in many contemporary societies,love is considered a fundamental basis for marriage,with the expectation that a deep emotional connection will form the foundation of a lasting partnership.The Differences Between Love and MarriageIt is important to recognize that love and marriage are not synonymous.Love is an emotion that can be experienced independently of any legal or social structure,while marriage is a formal institution with its own set of rules and expectations.Love can be fleeting or enduring,passionate or tranquil,but marriage is a commitment that requires ongoing effort,communication,and compromise.The Importance of Understanding Love and MarriageUnderstanding the distinctions between love and marriage is crucial for individuals entering into a relationship.It allows for realistic expectations and the recognition that while love may inspire the decision to marry,the success of a marriage depends on mutual respect,shared values,and the ability to navigate lifes challenges together. ConclusionIn conclusion,love and marriage are distinct but often interconnected aspects of human experience.Love can be the inspiration for marriage,but it is not the sole factor in ensuring a successful and enduring partnership.Recognizing the unique roles of love and marriage in our lives can lead to a more fulfilling and harmonious relationship,whether it is within the context of a marriage or any other form of deep connection.It is through the understanding and appreciation of both love and marriage that we can strive for a life enriched by the beauty of these profound human experiences.。

婚姻、爱情与自由(Marriage, love and freedom)
婚姻、爱情与自由(Marriage, love andfreedom)You are asking, "Is it possible to be married and to be free?"If you take marriage non-seriously, then you can be free. If you take it seriously, then freedom is impossible. Take marriage just as a game -- it is a game. Have a little sense of humor, that it is a role you are playing on the stage of life; but it is not something that belongs to existence or has any reality -- it is a people are so stupid that they even start taking fiction for reality. I have seen people reading fiction with tears in their eyes, because in the fiction things are going so tragically. It is a very good devicein the movies that they put the lights off, so everybody can enjoy the movie, laugh, cry, be sad, be happy.If there was light it would be a little difficult -- what will others think? And they know perfectly well that the screen is empty -- there is nobody; it is just a projected picture. But they forget it the same has happened with our lives. Many things which are simply to be taken humorously, we take so seriously -- and from that seriousness begins our the first place, why should you get married? You love someone, live with someone -- it is part of your basic rights. You can live with someone, you can love someone.Marriage is not something that happens in heaven, it happens here, through the crafty priests. But if you want to join the game with society and don‘t want to stand alone and aloof, youmake it clear to your wife or to your husband that this marriage is just a game:"Never take it seriously. I will remain as independent as I was before marriage, and you will remain as independent as you were before marriage. Neither I am going to interfere in your life, nor are you going to interfere in my life; we will live as two friends together, sharing our joys, sharing our freedom -- but not becoming a burden on each any moment we feel that the spring has passed, the honeymoon is over, we will be sincere enough not to go on pretending, but to say to each other that we loved much -- and we will remain grateful to each other forever, and the days of love will haunt us in our memories, in our dreams, as golden -- but the spring is paths have come to a point, where although it is sad, we have to part, because now, living together is not asign of love. If I love you, I will leave you the moment I see my love has become a misery to you. If you love me, you will leave me the moment you see that your love is creating an imprisonment for me."Love is the highest value in life: It should not be reduced to stupid rituals. And love and freedom go together -- you cannot choose one and leave the other. A man who knows freedom is full of love, and a man who knows love is always willing to give you cannot give freedom to the person you love, to whom can you give freedom? Giving freedom is nothing but trusting. Freedom is an expression of whether you are married or not, remember, all marriages are fake -- just social conveniences. Their purpose is not to imprison you and bind you to each other; their purpose is to help you to grow with each other. Butgrowth needs freedom; and in the past, all the cultures have forgotten that without freedom, love see a bird on the wing in the sun, in the sky, and it looks so beautiful. Attracted by its beauty, you can catch the bird and put it in a golden you think it is the same bird? Superficially, yes, it is the same bird who was flying in the sky; but deep down it is not the same bird -- because where is its sky, where is its freedom?This golden cage may be valuable to you; it is not valuable to the bird. For the bird, to be free in the sky is the only valuable thing in life. And the same is true about human beings.。
