Proverbs on Love and Marriage(4)
1. Romantic love is a lightning bolt. Married love is an electric current.
2. Marriage is a mirror in which one sees a reflection of oneself. 3. Similarly in marriage: when love is mutual, joy bubbles over onto all of life; when it is not, nothing is untouched by sadness. 4. In a good marriage one is continuously in love, regardless of anger, hurt, or the longing to be free. The trick is to be aware of it.

赠汪伦 To Wang Lun
[唐] 李白 by Li Bai (Tang Dynasty)
李白乘舟将欲行， While I’m now going to embark the boat 忽闻岸上踏歌声。 I hear a song from the bank with rhythm float 桃花潭水深千尺， A thousand feet deep is the Peach Bloom Pond 不及汪伦送我情。 But not deeper than my friend’s love so fond
As fair as you, my bonnie lass, 我的好姑娘，多么美丽的人儿 So deep in love am I; 请看我，多么深挚的爱情 And I will love you still, my dear, 亲爱的，我永远爱你 Till all the seas gone dry. 纵使大海干涸水流尽
And loved your beauty with love false or true, 爱过你的美貌，以虚伪或是真情，
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you, 惟独一人爱你那朝圣者的心，
And loved the sorrows of your changing face; 爱你哀戚的脸上岁月的留痕。

Love and marriageB: I think one of the sweetest sentences is “I love you!” We can find love in everywhere of our life, our parents love us, our friends love us, of course, there must be someone will say “I love you” to us. So what’s your opinion about true love?A: I am totally agreed with The New Oriental boss has said “True love is based on material and enjoys the spirit luxury.” In my opinion, if the love is nearby, don’t refuse it. But if the love is in a very long distance, don’t force yourself to purse it. Just let nature take its course! Oh, there are many people use the internet to meet friends, what do you think about it? B: Do you mean online love? Actually, I am not so supportive about it. You know, net just a virtual world, if we are not so lucky, we may meet some cheaters, it’s so dangerous. But every coin has two sides, you see, online love gives the two people more self-space, and it can save money. A: Oh, for me. I don’t support online love at all. As you mentioned before, it’s a virtual world, you can’t see the other side. You will be easy to trick. And it will get you into dangerous condition. You must have heard much news that there were many people have been tricked or even lost their life. Oh, why we talk these so fearful. Let’s talk something else, you must have seen that there were many girls in our school have foreign boyfriend. So, what do you think of international marriage?B: It’s a good topic, I think international marriage gives the freshness, butonce this fresh, the marriage will be difficult to continue. Because they have different beliefs and value systems, the different cultures and life styles may let they divorce at the end.A: I think you are right. But I still think if they have the true love, they will have good ending. In my opinion, if you find the true love, just marry to him, because the true love is priceless, you know, if you miss it, you won’t get it back. So just cherish the true love and don’t worry what will happen.B: Thank you very much for the suggestion. I will think it over.。

For many people the answer is your Wedding Day – the day when you marry another person and promise to live together as husband and wife for the rest of your lives.Wedding celebrations differ from country to country – in China the bride wears red whilst in India the wedding can continue for three days. However, in Britain the bride wears white and a wedding usually only lasts for one day.In the UK it is possible to get married in a religious or civil ceremony. A religious ceremony takes place in a church. A civil ceremony, on the other hand, can be held in a registry office, in a hotel, or even on a boat!On the day of the wedding the bride and groom are kept separate until the ceremony. It is said to be bad luck if the groom sees the bride in her dress before the wedding.The bride arrives at the ceremony accompanied by her father and bridesmaids. He officially gives her away to her new husband. During the ceremony the happy couple exchange vows and give each other wedding rings which they will wear forever. At the end of the ceremony they kiss.Afterwards they go outside where friends and family throw rice or confetti over them. Then they go on to the reception where there is a lot of food and drink. After the meal the father of the bride and the best man make speeches. Then the bride and groom take the first dance. It's a lot of fun.Finally, at the end of the party the newly-weds leave to go on honeymoon, usually to a very romantic destination.New wordsConfetti n.
