互动式新视野大学英语自主学习手册（第二册） 1 Unit 3 Objectives Dear friends, The relationship between love and marriage is complicated. People often say “May all lovers under heaven unite in wedlock.” just because many of them failed to realize this dream. When it comes to marriage across the nations, there are many factors for the failure to marry each other. Through reading the passages in this unit, we’ll get to know the obstacles to interracial marriages. We’re going to improve our reading skills by distinguishing between facts and opinions and our writing skills by writing a paragraph of a denial of some opinions followed by some other opinions, to cultivate our research skills by exploring the unknown related to marriages across the nations and to develop critical thinking by discussing the willingness to marry a person from another culture. We must be concerned with the influence of cultural differences on mixed marriages and other differences that may become obstacles to an interracial marriage. Section A Marriage Across the Nations Warming up Let’s talk about the benefits and differences that a couple from different cultures may have. Tip You may conduct your discussion under the guide of these items: • food • language misunderstandings • parental pressure • social pressure, etc. Listen to a short passage and fill in the missing words. 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.

Even exercise professionals concede half a point here. "Exercise by itself is a very tough way to lose weight," says York Onnen, program director of the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports. Still, exercise's supporting role in weight reduction is vital.

If you have been sedentary ( 极少活动的 ) and decide to start walking one mile a day, the added exercise could burn an extra 100 calories daily. In a year's time, assuming no increase in food intake, you could lose ten pounds. By increasing the distance of your walks gradually and making other dietary adjustments, you may lose even more weight. 1. What is said about the average American in the passage?
