Sample Sentences

老外收养中国孤儿也很不容易，手续繁琐，费用很高，还要等好几年。所以提出申请的一般都是非常爱小孩儿而且有一定经济条件的人。就像那个小女孩，养父母那么疼爱她，肯定比在孤儿院要幸福一万倍！
lǎowài shōuyǎng Zhōngguó gū\'ér yě hěn bù róngyì ，shǒuxù fánsuǒ ，fèiyòng hěn gāo ，hái yào děng hǎojǐnián 。suǒyǐ tíchū shēnqǐng de yībān dōu shì fēicháng ài xiǎoháir érqiě yǒu yīdìng jīngjì tiáojiàn de rén 。jiù xiàng nàge xiǎonǚhái ，yǎngfùmǔ nàme téng ài tā ，kěndìng bǐ zài gūér yuàn yào xìngfú yīwàn bèi ！
It's also very difficult for foreigners to adopt Chinese orphans. The process is complex, the fees are high, and you have to wait a number of years. Therefore, those who apply generally really love children and have a certain level of economic security. It's just like that little girl. Her foster parents love her so deeply. It's definitely much, much better than living in an orphanage!
