Se me va la olla

大家晚上好啊，我是丹霞。您现在收听的是中文台词频道，今天的台词出自电影《七月与安生》，由周冬雨和马思纯主演。

        “十三岁到十五岁，是七月和安生形影不离的三年。 有时候七月是安生的影子，有时候安生是七月的影子。她们在书里读到：如果踩住一个人的影子，那个人一辈子不会离开。但是安生说一辈子太长了，她只想活到二十七岁。

        初中毕业，七月考上了最好的高中，安生进了职业学校。用安生的话说，熬了九年终于考进了一所 不需要交作文、没有操行评分的学校，正和她的胃口。”

                                                                                                           ——电影《七月与安生》/<Soulmate>

"From 13 to 15 years old, Qiyue and Ansheng have been always together for three years. Sometimes Qiyue is the shadow of Ansheng, and sometimes Ansheng is the shadow of Qiyue. They read in the book: if you keep stepping on a someone's shadow, that person will never leave. But Ansheng said that a whole lifetime is too long, and she only wants to live up to 27.

After graduating from junior high school, Qiyue was admitted to the best high school, and Ansheng entered a vocational school. In Ansheng's words, after nine years hard life, she finally got into a school that doesn't need to hand in a composition and doesn't have a code of conduct. It was just to her taste. "

June and Yuli have a talk about Chinese Blind Date, this episode is part 2: Why do Chinese parents set their children up on blind dates, you will learn how to say 【intervene,force of public opinion】 ect. (This is casual talk so there're some repetition and unnecessary words, which is also very natural authentic dialogue.)
--------------------------------------------------
It is recommended that you study in the following ways:
1st time: listen without looking at the text.
2nd time: look at the text and write down the new words, later look up the dictionary. 
3rd time: listen again without looking at the text.
4th time: repeat after it without looking at the text.
-------------------------------------------------- 
June：那刚刚有提到中国的父母喜欢给孩子安排相亲，但是我们知道很多西方国家的父母不太去管，或者是插手孩子的，比如说谈恋爱或者是什么时候结婚这件事。那你觉得为什么中国的父母喜欢给孩子安排相亲呢？
Yuli：我父母他们说是他们觉得这个像一个任务一样，他觉得说把我养大，然后看着我结婚成家，他觉得这个才是他的一个任务的完成。然后我觉得还有一个就是社会大环境是这样，所以是一个舆论压力。他们会觉得说周围的同龄人特别是我们同龄的那些亲戚，还有他们自己的朋友的小孩，这个年纪或甚至是比我年轻的都结婚了，生小孩了，他们就觉得说应该跟别人一样，就别人这样做你也应该这样做。
June：我觉得还有一点就是中国的一个传统观念就是传宗接代，还有一个养儿防老。父母会担心，现在有可能自己一个人过得挺好，但是将来你也有老了的一天或者是你生病了，那等父母都不在这个世界上了，他们希望会有一个人来照顾你，所以我觉得这个就是为什么他们想要给孩子安排相亲（的原因）。
