支持
首先我相信是有真爱的,
裸婚就是检验是否真爱的试金石,
当一个人
真的愿意和你裸婚,
愿意与你以期过艰苦的日
子的时候,
那个人是你
最值得珍惜的人;
当我们在适合结婚的年龄的时候我们一般都还是处
于一无所有的状态,如果你想要结婚
,裸婚是一个常态,也许你会说
你可以选择现在不结婚啊,
等到
你拥有了一切拥有了世界的时候再结
婚啊,
可是那时候你年龄已
经长了,
你也没有那么多的精力再去经营
一份真挚的爱情了,<
/p>
也许你又会说你可以一直谈恋爱下去直到有了一
切再结婚啊,那么
你都愿意和他多年恋爱了为什么不能直接先结婚
呢,
你都直到他
是你的另一半了为什么不开始就选择结婚呢?当前的
社会压力如此之大、
社会竞争如此之激烈,
我们可以选择先互相在一
起,结
婚后以期创造美好的生活;古人说成家立业,先成家再立业,
成了家以后我们的感情就能
稳定下来了,我们的生活就能够更稳定
了,
这样以后我们就能够
更好的去经营我们的事业,
以此来促进美好
的生活。
First, I believe there is true
love, naked marriage is a touchstone to test
whether it is a true love when a
person would marry you when you have
nothing, willing to struggle together
to go through the difficult times, he
or her is the one you should cherish
most. when we are in the age of
marriage, we are generally still in a
state of nothing, if you want to get
married, naked marriage is a norm, you
might say that you can choose not
to
get married, wait until you have enough money .
But when you get
enough money, your age
is older, you do not have so much time and
energy to manage a sincere love. Maybe
you will say that you can choose
to
keep the love relation with him or her until you
get ready, then you are
willing to love
him for many years why not get married at first?
Current social pressure is
so great ,and social competition is so fierce, we
can choose to be with each other, get
married in order to create a better
life; there is a Chinese saying, Marry
and settle down. Get married first,
then operate your long as the family
is stabilized , then our lives
will be
more stable, so that we can try our best to
operate our business ,
and in order to
promote a better life.
4.
In what ways
does the internet and social network change our
life?
(the way we read,
work
, shop, relax, make
friends and so on)?
互联网改变了我们的工作的方式,
看看我们现在所有的工作,
几乎没
有哪一个是能
离开互联网的,
我们可以通过网络发邮件,
而不是寄信;
我们利用网络来进行沟通交流,
而不是一定要聚在一起开会;
我们甚
至可以在家就可以办公,
而不必到公司;
通过网络搜集一些商业信息、
拓展业务渠道、通过网络销售产品
、网上进行交易等,总之互联网和
社交网络让我们的工作变得简单,也变得方便和时效。
The Internet has changed
the way we work, take a look at all kinds of the
work now, almost no one is able to
leave the Internet, we can send
messages through the network, rather
than send a letter; we use the
Internet
to communicate, not necessarily to meet together;
we can even
work at home , rather than
in the company; we can collect some business
information through the network, expand
business channels, trading and
other
products through a sales network, the Internet, in
short, the Internet
and social networks
make our work becomes simpler, more convenient
and more efficient.
5.
Do young
people in China feel pressured to get married? If
so, at what
age and who exerts the
pressure, e.g. family, peer groups, etc.? Is the
pressure greater on the man or
woman?
男生压力大
Yes,
young
people
in
China
feel
pressured
to
get
married.
And
at
their
marriageable age, or
at their age that they do not have anything.
Because
nowadays in China, if you want
to get marriage, you should have some a
solid foundation, such as
house
、
car and money. After
you get marriage,
you should support
your family.

Is the internet and social network
drawing people closer or make
people
more isolated?
疏远
互联网和社会媒体让我们彼此之间变得更加疏远,
人们每时每刻都是
盯着自己的手机,
或者完全忽视对方的存在;
朋友或者家庭
聚会的时
候,就算是一个接着一个坐着,彼此也不会有太多的交流,彼此也不
会有什么感情的投入,就像陌生人一样。
Internet and social media makes us more
distant from each other, people
are
staring at their phones all the time, or
completely ignore each other's
existence; when friends or family get
gatherings, even a sitting one after
each other there will not be much
communication, there will not be any
emotional investment in each other,
like strangers.

(Assigned roles:1) Moderator 2)
Gentleman A

B)
不是
也是,
shopping is
still a SOCIL activities.
Social activity means make some
communication between people in the
society. In the social activity, people
use certain tools to convey
information, exchange ideas in order to
achieve some kind of social
activity
purposes. Social activity is to maintain social
relations of
interdependence and
interconnection of social groups to hold a variety
of
collective activities. But shopping
is a action that happens between buyer
and seller. After the trade, there is
no connection between them, and both
of
them just get what they need. Their activity are
not for a common
Purpose, such as
relations of interdependence and interconnection
of
social groups. In addition, the
shopping activity is a personal action
instead of collective activities. Like
you shop online, it is just a action
happens between you and you will say
you and your
friends go shopping
together, you can communicate with your friends,
that can be called social activity. But
that is just a communication, not
shopping.
