M: When couples get married, they often promise to love, honor and cherish each other. Too often, those traditional wedding vows turn out to be nothing but empty promises. Psychologist Dr. Robin Smith says it doesn’t have to be that way. (1) Her new book Lies at the Altar offers advice on building a happy and healthy marriage. Dr. Robin, good morning!
W: Good morning!
M: So great to have you here!
W: I’m happy to be here, Jack.
M: OK. You didn’t necessarily write this for couples who are married or people who’re thinking of getting married. (2-1) It’s written for everyone, right?
W: (2-2) Yeah. It’s what the book is really about. Lies at the Altar is talking about living more in the truth than in lies. Lies about what? About who we are. And so when we don’t know who we are, it’s actually impossible to create, to carve and to build the life and relationship of our dreams.
M: (3) When you say lies at the altar, these are not intentional lies. It’s not like the bride and the groom were saying, yeah, I’m going to love and cherish you, but I’m really not. It’s you think you are, but you don’t know who you are yet?
W: You don’t know who you are and often unfortunately because of the models that we’ve had in our families also on television. (4) There hasn’t been anyone who has given us permission, who has shown us the path into living more in the truth, so we’re afraid to let someone know who we are. Because maybe they won’t love us, maybe they won’t choose us, maybe they’ll decide that’s not the person they want to spend their life with. (5) What we don’t know is that if we live with that kind of fear, and we live covering up who we really are, we are cheating ourselves and minimizing the possibility of really having a good, strong marriage. I mean, my message is pro-marriage, but it’s about being married and being smart.
This is the end of Part One of the interview. Questions 1 to 5 are based on what you have just heard.
1. What is the book, Lies at the Altar, mainly about?
2. What kind of people did Dr. Robin write this book for?
3. What do lies at the altar refer to?
4. Which is NOT a reason why we are afraid to let someone know who we really are?
5. According to the woman, what will happen if we live covering up who we really are?
选项
A、Because we have a lot of intentional lies.
B、Because we have no permission.
C、Because no one tells us how to live in truth.
D、Because we are afraid to lose the one we love.
答案
A
解析
根据句(4)可知,我们害怕让别人知道真实的自己是因为没有人给过我们许可,也没有人告诉过我们如何真实地活着,故排除[B]和[C];另外,还因为害十白别人可能不喜欢自己,可能不会选择自己,可能不想和自己共度一生,言外之意就是害怕失去自己爱的人,故排除[D]。因此答案为[A]。
