他们是经过相当的考虑以后才结婚的

20:20.000 --> 20:25.000
but

20:25.000 --> 20:30.000
但是

20:30.000 --> 20:36.000
but for some reason or other

20:36.000 --> 20:42.000
they still had a lot of problems

20:42.000 --> 20:51.000
但是不知道为什么他们还是有很多问题

20:51.000 --> 20:54.000
male and female

20:54.000 --> 20:57.000
男女

20:57.000 --> 21:00.000

21:00.000 --> 21:04.000

21:04.000 --> 21:07.000

男女应当彼此比较了解以后再结婚

21:30.000 --> 21:33.000

22:29.000 --> 22:33.000

23:06.000 --> 23:08.000
考虑

23:08.000 --> 23:10.000
but

23:10.000 --> 23:12.000
但是

23:12.000 --> 23:15.000
male and female

23:23.000 --> 23:27.000

23:36.000 --> 23:40.000
解决

23:40.000 --> 23:43.000
now here's a review of the sentences in part 3

23:43.000 --> 23:52.000
before you two were married, did you both know each other very well?

23:52.000 --> 24:01.000
你们结婚以前,双方彼此都很了解吗?

24:01.000 --> 24:09.000
there aren't very many people getting divorced in China now.

24:09.000 --> 24:14.000
现在中国离婚的不太多.

24:14.000 --> 24:21.000
that married couple doesn't work in the same region.

24:21.000 --> 24:29.000
那对夫妇不在一个地区工作.

24:29.000 --> 24:37.000
how many days of leave does he get every year to visit family?

24:37.000 --> 24:44.000
他每年有多少天的叹亲家?

24:44.000 --> 24:50.000
it's always better if married couples can be together.

24:50.000 --> 24:57.000
夫妇总是能够在一起比较好.

24:57.000 --> 25:06.000
they gave quite a bit of consideration before they got married.

25:06.000 --> 25:14.000
他们是经过相当的考虑以后才结婚的.

25:14.000 --> 25:19.000
but for some reason or other they still had a lot of problems.

25:19.000 --> 25:30.000
但是不知道为什么,他们还是有很多问题.

25:30.000 --> 25:40.000
a man and woman should know each other relatively well before they get married.

25:40.000 --> 25:48.000
男女应当彼此比较了解以后再结婚.

25:48.000 --> 25:57.000
do you think he'll help me solve this problem?

25:57.000 --> 26:02.000
你想他会不会帮我解决这个问题?

26:02.000 --> 26:05.000
now here's a conversation reviewing part three.

26:05.000 --> 26:09.000
a Canadian woman visiting China talks with her guide in Beijing.

26:09.000 --> 26:14.000
我们认识只有两个多星期,可是已经是老朋友了.

26:14.000 --> 26:18.000
我们天天在一块儿,真好像是老朋友了.

26:18.000 --> 26:22.000
我一直想问问你,你是什么时候结婚的呢?

26:22.000 --> 26:26.000
我是前年结婚的.

26:26.000 --> 26:29.000
你二十八岁了,你爱人呢?

26:29.000 --> 26:34.000
他三十二了,你们结婚的时候可不小了.

26:34.000 --> 26:37.000
中国年轻人都是这个样子吗?

26:37.000 --> 26:41.000
对了,政府提倡晚恋晚婚,

26:41.000 --> 26:46.000
年轻人也都要努力学习,努力工作,不要早结婚.

26:46.000 --> 26:49.000
城市里女的多大结婚?

26:49.000 --> 26:52.000
差不多二十五岁左右.

26:52.000 --> 26:53.000
男的呢?

26:53.000 --> 26:56.000
大概二十八岁左右.

26:56.000 --> 26:59.000
结婚的时候有什么样的仪式?

26:59.000 --> 27:03.000
没有什么仪式,不过结婚那天,

27:03.000 --> 27:08.000
请亲戚朋友来喝喝茶,吃点糖,点心什么的,

27:08.000 --> 27:12.000
没有人送点小礼物做纪念。

27:12.000 --> 27:16.000
农村里的年轻人也实行晚婚吗?

27:16.000 --> 27:23.000
对,在农村里,晚恋爱晚结婚,也已经成了一种风气。

27:23.000 --> 27:30.000
农村里,女孩子结婚的时候,男家还要送许多礼物吗?

27:30.000 --> 27:36.000
不要了,而且现在有些男青年结婚以后住到女家去,

27:36.000 --> 27:40.000
结婚以前的风俗有很大的区别。

27:40.000 --> 27:44.000
可不是吗?真是改变了不少。

27:44.000 --> 27:47.000
现在中国离婚的多不多?

27:47.000 --> 27:50.000
有,可是比较少,

27:50.000 --> 27:54.000
因为结婚以前,男女双方彼此比较了解,

27:54.000 --> 28:00.000
又经过相当的考虑,所以离婚的不太多。

28:00.000 --> 28:05.000
我听说,中国有一些夫妇不在一个地区工作,

28:05.000 --> 28:10.000
不住在一个地方,这会不会有问题呢?

28:10.000 --> 28:16.000
夫妇不在一个地方工作,虽然每年有半个月的探亲价,

28:16.000 --> 28:18.000
但是还有很多不方便,

28:18.000 --> 28:24.000
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。

28:24.000 --> 28:31.000
对极了,夫妇总是能够在一起比较好。

28:31.000 --> 28:35.000
这就是结婚结婚的结尾。

28:35.000 --> 29:01.000
结婚,结婚,结婚,结婚,结婚,结婚。
