As a teenager I had certain ideas in my mind that constituted the idyllic life of love and marriage.In Home Economics，our teacher had us plan the perfect wedding and the perfect reception，right down to the throwing of rice and driving away in a limousine.It was just like the movies where the nice guy gets the beautiful girl and they live happily ever after.Reality was not a part of the picture.
After high school，I went to college and was determined to become a nurse.I forgot about marriage.I could put that on hold since I was going to help people and travel.Surprisingly，two years later I met the man I would marry.It’s often said，“opposites attract.”This was really true about us.
还是十几岁的少女时，我脑子里对爱情与婚姻所想像的是诗情画意般的生活。在家政学课上，老师让我们设计理想的婚礼、理想的婚庆招待会，一直到撒大米、新郎新娘开着豪华轿车缓缓离去。这就像电影中俊男靓女终成眷属，他们从此幸福地生活在一起。但现实可不是如此。
高中后，我上了大学，立志要做一名护士。我把婚姻抛在了脑后。我暂不考虑结婚，因为我要帮助他人，我要周游四方。令人惊奇的是，两年后我遇到了我要嫁的男人。常常有人说，“对立物互相吸引。”我们俩就是这么回事。

We were married in October just prior to the beginning of heavy snowfalls.It would snow heavily throughout the whole winter.Our only entertainment was listening to the radio or the local high school sporting events.My new husband was a lover of sports.He had been a champion boxer and also participated in most sports.I was a lover of the arts.Speech，drama and dance were my first love.The nearest town with this kind of entertainment was forty miles away and the highway was closed off and on1all winter.
我们在10月结了婚，就在大雪迫近之际。大雪会下一冬天。我们惟一的娱乐就是听收音机或观看当地高中体育比赛。我新婚的丈夫是个体育爱好者。他曾是拳击冠军，也参加过很多种体育活动。而我是个艺术迷。演说、戏剧、舞蹈是我的挚爱。有这类艺术活动的城镇，最近的离我们也有40英里，而高速公路在整个冬天是时而封闭时而开放的。
We had only been married seven months when I received word that my mother，who was battling cancer，would not live much longer.Even though there was the dairy with 75cows and 1400acres to farm，as soon as my husband read the telegram，he sadly said，“Honey，get your bags packed while I make reservations for you.Your place is with your mother and your fat... -->>
