Sad ending unites two families

The story of Romeo and Juliet takes place in Verona in Italy. Two families, the Montagues and the Capulets, hate each other so much that they fight on the street whenever they meet.

One of these families, the Capulets, holds a big party. They introduce their daughter Juliet to a rich nobleman (贵族), Count (伯爵) Paris, who has asked to marry her. Juliet is nearly 14, and her parents are keen for her to marry soon.

That night, at the party, Romeo, the son of the Montague family, meets Juliet and they fall in love at first sight. However, Juliet’s cousin, Tybalt, knows Romeo is from the Montague family and wants to kill him. Romeo hides in the garden and talks to Juliet when she appears on her balcony. The next day they go to a priest (神父) called Friar Lawrence, who marries them in secret.

Juliet’s cousin, Tybalt, gets angry very easily. He starts a fight with Romeo’s best friend. When Romeo steps in to break up the fight between the two men, his best friend is accidentally killed. Romeo runs after Tybalt in anger and kills him. Romeo is sent away from Verona.But Friar Lawrence, the priest who organized the secret wedding between Romeo and Juliet, arranges for them to spend one night together as husband and wife. 

Meanwhile, the Capulets decide that Juliet must marry Count Paris at once. When Juliet says that she doesn’t want to, her parents are very angry with her. Of course, they do not know that she has already secretly married Romeo. Juliet asks Friar Lawrence to help her to see Romeo again. Friar Lawrence has an idea － he gives Juliet a drug which will make everyone think that she is dead. But in fact she’s only in a long, deep sleep. While Juliet is sleeping, Friar Lawrence sends a message to Romeo to tell him to come to her tomb (坟墓) and take her away.

When the guests arrive for Juliet’s wedding the next day, they find Juliet’s lifeless body. Believing she is dead, her family put her in their tomb. Sadly, Romeo never gets Friar Lawrence’s message that Juliet has taken a drug and is really alive. He only hears that she is dead. Romeo returns to Verona, and goes to Juliet’s tomb. There, inside the tomb, he meets Count Paris, who has also come to say goodbye to Juliet. The two fight and Romeo kills him. Romeo still believes that Juliet is dead, so he drinks poison (毒药) and dies. But soon after this, Juliet’s drug stops working and she wakes up. She sees that Romeo is dead, takes his knife, and kills herself, too.
