1597000	1601000	对了,政府提倡晚恋晚婚,
1601000	1606000	年轻人也都要努力学习,努力工作,不要早结婚.
1606000	1609000	城市里女的多大结婚?
1609000	1612000	差不多二十五岁左右.
1612000	1613000	男的呢?
1613000	1616000	大概二十八岁左右.
1616000	1619000	结婚的时候有什么样的仪式?
1619000	1623000	没有什么仪式,不过结婚那天,
1623000	1628000	请亲戚朋友来喝喝茶,吃点糖,点心什么的,
1628000	1632000	没有人送点小礼物做纪念。
1632000	1636000	农村里的年轻人也实行晚婚吗?
1636000	1643000	对,在农村里,晚恋爱晚结婚,也已经成了一种风气。
1643000	1650000	农村里,女孩子结婚的时候,男家还要送许多礼物吗?
1650000	1656000	不要了,而且现在有些男青年结婚以后住到女家去,
1656000	1660000	结婚以前的风俗有很大的区别。
1660000	1664000	可不是吗?真是改变了不少。
1664000	1667000	现在中国离婚的多不多?
1667000	1670000	有,可是比较少,
1670000	1674000	因为结婚以前,男女双方彼此比较了解,
1674000	1680000	又经过相当的考虑,所以离婚的不太多。
1680000	1685000	我听说,中国有一些夫妇不在一个地区工作,
1685000	1690000	不住在一个地方,这会不会有问题呢?
1690000	1696000	夫妇不在一个地方工作,虽然每年有半个月的探亲价,
1696000	1698000	但是还有很多不方便,
1698000	1704000	所以为了让他们更好的工作和学习,应当帮他们解决这个问题。
1704000	1711000	对极了,夫妇总是能够在一起比较好。
1711000	1715000	这就是结婚结婚的结尾。
1715000	1741000	结婚,结婚,结婚,结婚,结婚,结婚。
