（聽(tīng)寫(xiě)原文：
President Obama has welcomed the United States Supreme Court ruling which quashed a law that discriminated against same-sex couples. In a landmark ruling, the judges struck down the defense of Marriage Act, a law that denied federal recognition of same-sex marriages. The historic ruling means that legally married gay, men and women in the 12 states where such unions are permitted, are now entitled to claim the same federal benefits as opposite-sex married couples.

The two couples which brought that case celebrated the decision outside the court. Before turning to hug and kiss his partner, Paul Katami told the crowd that marriage was the natural next step in their relationship.

“We want to join the institution of marriage not to take anything away, but to strengthen it, and to live up to its ideals. So today is good day. Today I finally get to look at the man that I love and finally say ‘will you please marry me?’”）
