问题     Martha Washington did not want to be the first lady of the United States. In fact, Martha Washington was very opposed to her husband, George Washington, accepting the presidency. When he was sworn in on April 30, 1789 in New York City, Martha Washington was not at his side. She was at the Washingtons’ home in Virginia. They lived on a large estate called Mount Vernon. Mrs. Washington was not in a hurry to go to New York City, the nation’s first capital.
    After he was sworn in, George Washington called the presidency " an experiment. " The same can be said for the position of first lady. One question was what to call Martha Washington. Many people called her "Lady Washington. " Others used the name "Presidentess. " When Mrs. Washington finally arrived in New York City, she discovered that the president’s aides had made all kinds of rules about what she would do—rules she did not like.
选项
答案 玛莎.华盛顿不想成为美国第一夫人。事实上，玛莎.华盛顿非常反对她的丈夫乔治.华盛顿接受总统职位。当他于1789年4月30日在纽约市宣誓就职时，玛莎.华盛顿不在他身边。她当时在弗吉尼亚州的华盛顿家中。他们住在一个名叫“弗农山庄”的大型庄园里。华盛顿夫人并不急着去纽约——这个国家的首个首府。 在宣誓就职后。乔治.华盛顿称总统职位为“一个实验”。第一夫人的位置也是如此。如何称呼玛莎.华盛顿是一个问题。许多人称她为“华盛顿夫人”。其他人使用“女总统”这个名字。当华盛顿夫人最终抵达纽约市时，她发现总统的助手们已经给她制定了各种各样的规则——她不喜欢的规则。
