  孩子大了，父母最急的是什么？在中国，有儿子的父母最急的就是帮儿子找媳妇，有女儿的父母最急的就是赶紧把女儿嫁出去。可如果孩子自己不急，那做父母的该怎么办呢？可怜天下父母心，幸亏老祖宗给这些父母留下了一条妙计——相亲。被父母逼着去相亲，虽然被提倡自由恋爱的年轻人所排斥，但背负“单身”骂名的年轻人哪敌得过父母的唠叨呢？于是，在全国各地掀起了一股强劲的“相亲热”。想进一步了解这股“相亲热”吗？想知道现在的相亲跟古代的相亲有什么不同吗？那就赶快来学习一下吧。

哟，怎么这么多人围在一起？还有照片？他们都在找失踪的人吗？
yō ， zěnme zhème duō rén wéi zài yīqǐ ？ hái yǒu zhàopiàn ？ tāmen dōu zài zhǎo shīzōng de rén ma ？
不是，这是相亲。都是父母给自己的孩子物色对象。孩子自己不来，他们就带着照片来。
bù shì ， zhè shì xiāngqīn 。 dōu shì fùmǔ gěi zìjǐ de háizi wùsè duìxiàng 。 háizi zìjǐ bù lái ， tāmen jiù dài zhe zhàopiàn lái 。
真奇怪。这种事情当然要自己看咯。怎么能让父母代劳呢？
zhēn qíguài 。 zhèzhǒng shìqing dāngrán yào zìjǐ kàn lo 。 zěnme néng ràng fùmǔ dàiláo ne ？
传统思想的影响吧。以前都是父母做主，孩子没有选择的权力。
chuántǒng sīxiǎng de yǐngxiǎng ba 。 yǐqián dōu shì fùmǔ zuòzhǔ ， háizi méiyǒu xuǎnzé de quánlì 。
