<漢譯英>
婚姻的旅程
中文原文：
當(dāng)你步入婚姻的殿堂，你可能認(rèn)為已經(jīng)爬到了山頂，剩下的只是悠閑地沿著平緩的山坡下山。然而，這只是戀愛的結(jié)束，婚姻的開始。擁有一顆驕傲而又叛逆的心，墜入愛河與贏得愛情都是難事；但維持愛情也很重要，夫妻都應(yīng)相敬如賓,互相關(guān)愛。當(dāng)真愛起始于圣壇之時(shí)，夫妻之間便開始了一場智慧與慷慨的競爭，一場為了一個(gè)不可能實(shí)現(xiàn)的理想而持續(xù)一生的奮斗。不可能實(shí)現(xiàn)？啊，當(dāng)然不可能，因?yàn)樗麄儾皇且粋€(gè)人，而是兩個(gè)呀。
參考譯文：
Again, when you have married your wife, you would think you were got upon a hilltop, and might begin to go downward by an easy slope. But you have only ended courting to begin marriage. Falling in love and winning love are often difficult tasks to overbearing and rebellious spirits; but to keep in love is also a business of some importance, to which both man and wife must bring kindness and goodwill. The true love story commences at the altar, when there lies before the married pair a most beautiful contest of wisdom and generosity, and a life-long struggle towards an unattainable ideal. Unattainable? Ay, surely unattainable, from the very fact that they are two instead of one.
