Unit 122 Part A English

1    Attending a wedding for the first time,
2    a little girl whispered to her mother,
3    "Why is the bride dressed in white?"
4    The mother replied,
5    "Because white is the color of happiness,
6    and today is the happiest day of her life."
7    The child thought about this for a moment, then said,
8    "So why is the groom wearing black?"
