情景交际-跨国婚姻(在线收听

   S: why? Did tom pop the question?

  N: not yet. But I wonder if I can get my parents’ consent.
  S: let me guess, your parents want you to marry a Chinese man, right?
  N: you are right. It is giving me a real headache. I feel like I’m between a rock and a hard place.
  S: I used to have the same problem when I was with my ex.
  N: oh, how did you deal with it?
  S: I just let it go and continued dating with my Korean boyfriend. But finally we broke up.
  N: oh, it’s a pity. What was the matter?
  S: simple. We had personality clashes and there were too many cultural differences.
  N: like what?
  S: he hoped to live in the Korean way and asked me to give up working and stay at home to take care of the family.
  N: Oh, I see. In their culture women should put family first.
  S: yes, he said it would be batter for me and for the whole family. But I simply can not quit working.
  N: so that's why it’s hard to have a happy marriage with a foreigner.
  S: not really. There are many successful mixed marriage around us.
