Mixed marriage: the shortcut of blending into another culture.
跨國婚姻是融入另一種文化的捷徑。
Mixed marriage is not only about love, it's about the whole package you can get from it. People involved in it get a shortcut to blend into the mainstream, which brings them huge advantages to advance their career, especially in corporations, the language and culture advantages.
跨國婚姻絕不僅僅只關系到愛情，還關系到你從中所獲得的全部價值。它是一個人融入另一種文化主流最便捷的方式，從中你能獲得極大的好處:事業的發展(尤其在公司)，語言的提高以及對文化的了解。
The culture conflict, however, poses a serious problem, which becomes a sturnbling block in the way. But among the various solutions to the problem, the interracial(不同種族間的) marriage has its own benefits. With a couple from different countries bound together in wedlock, they could improve their understanding of the history, culture, and customs of each other's countries. They might leam some advantages from each other's cultures, consequently, creating a harmonious family.
盡管十分嚴重的文化沖突成為了跨國婚姻的一個絆腳石，但是在解決這一問題的過程中，每對跨國交往的情侶都能從中各有所獲。來自不同國家的跨國情侶一旦步入了婚姻生活，那么這將促進他們更好的了解彼此國家的歷史、文化和習俗，并從彼此的文化中受益，從而構建一個和諧美好的家庭。
Additionally, since some couples have different language backgrounds, their children could be bilingual. When they grow up, it will bring an undeniable benefit to them, especially, in their career lives.
另外，因為一些情侶存在不同的語言背景，因此他們的子女可能會具備雙語能力。不可否認的是，當這些孩子長大后，這種能力必定會使他們受益頗多，尤其是在其職業生涯中。

反方辯詞：
Culture shock is a big problem.
文化沖突是個大問題。
Although a mixed marriage may seem as dreamily beautiful as a fairy tale, the tale is often based more on romantic imagination rather than reality. Different cultures，tastes, life experiences, eating and living habits like strong waves, may wash the dream away as soon as the weather becomes stormly.
跨國婚戀似乎像神話般美好，但神話往往基于浪漫的想象，并非現實。文化、品位、生活經歷以及飲食起居等習慣的差異猶如巨浪，一旦暴風雨來臨，就可能把夢想沖得無影無蹤。
Asian cultures prefer the solidarity within the family. People tend to be interdependent and supportive. In contrast, western culture is rooted in individualism. The Chinese are often rudely disillusioned by such discoveries after marriage.
亞洲人崇尚團結的家庭觀，家人相互依靠、相互支持。這與西方人的個人主義價值觀迥然不同。因此，當婚后發現到這些不同時，很多外嫁的中國人往往都會大失所望。
Many people enjoy a relatively high social position in their homeland. When living abroad , their glorious past is long gone. They often indulge themselves in recalling their happy past and feelings of resentment arise. These ill feelings are another major source of tension in marriage.
另外，很多外嫁者在本國享有較高的社會地位，一旦出國，他們的輝煌將成為過去。于是他們便會不斷地沉浸于過去美好的回憶中，并會油然而生一種憤恨的情緒。而這種病態的情感也是導致其婚姻關系緊張的又一重要因素。
