　　1. Nothing wrong with a parent trying to set their kids up, so long as the kid is receptive to it. And at times it works¹ out and a happy ending follows.

　　父母给孩子安排婚事没有错，只要小孩能接受。有时候这样也行得通，而且会有好的结果。

　　2. The parents may mean well, but it's not appreciated when they tell their daughters that you're too old to get a good man, or that you have to take on any guy who wants you.

　　家长可能是好意，但是如果家长告诉女儿说是他们年纪大了，没办法找到好人，或者随便找个男的就行，这样就不太好了。

　　3. I've been married 46 years and it hasn't been easy and that's with someone I wanted to marry. So to be forced or pushed to marry someone you don't know would be very tough going.

　　我结婚46年了，这个事并不容易，不过我是和喜欢的人结婚的。所以被逼婚或者去和自己不认识的人结婚，将来也不好过。
