【正确答案】几乎每个人都会被生活中的某一点或其他事情栓住。婚姻不应是跳进去然后拴住你的那件事。婚姻是一个严肃的承诺，需要大家的深思熟虑。美国有半数以上的婚姻是以离婚收场的。离婚既可以破坏一个人的经济状况也可以伤害一个人的感情。所以你必须与配偶讨论一下——你愿意为这个人作出多大的牺牲。

【答案解析】[听力原文]
Almost everyone will get hitched at one point or another in their life. Marriage isn't something that should be jumped into. It is a serious commitment that should be carefully thought through. More than half of the marriages in the U.S. end in divorce. Divorce is something that can ruin lives financially and emotionally. That is why you need to have a talk with your spouse and discuss what you are willing to sacrifice to be with this person.
