众所周知，中国人和美国人的差异非常大。
就连两国人民平时的对话区别就很大。
相信我们的七大姑八大姨们肯定懂!
于是，有一个美国人，在美国知乎quora
网站上，问道。
接下来看看外国人是如何回答的吧!

Here is a conversation which has happened to me fairly frequently. I get approached by a man or woman who is in her 60s or 70s and the conversation starts like this:
这是一段经常发生在我身上的谈话。我被一个六七十岁的大爷或大妈搭讪，谈话通常是这样展开的:
"Are you married?"
“你结婚了吗?”
"No."
“没有。”
"Why not? Do you like men instead?"
“为什么没有?难道你喜欢男人啊?”
"No I like women. I guess I have just not met the right one."
“不，我喜欢女人。我觉得我只是还没遇到对的那个人”
"How much money do you make?"
“你月收入多少?”
"I make xxx."
“我月收入XXX。”
"Do you own a house?"
“你有房吗?”
"No I don't."
“不，我没有。”
"You seem like a decent person. Why aren't you married?"
“你看起来人很好。为什么还没结婚啊?”
"I have had some bad luck."
“我运气有些不好吧。”
"Would you be interested in meeting my daughter? She is 40 years old and not married yet. I was wondering if you could meet and become friends?"
“你有兴趣见见我的女儿吗?她今年40岁了，还未婚。我想知道你是否愿意与她见个面交个朋友啥的?”
By this time my mind is whirling madly. If agree to meet their hopes are very high and if things don't work out I will end up hurting them. Time for some honesty.
每到此时我的思绪总会翻滚。如果同意见面，会增高他们的期望值，这样如果最后事情没成，我最终会伤害到他们。该是我展现自己诚实面的时候了。
"If you give me a way to contact her I will contact her directly and we can have dinner. But I don't want you to be involved in the process if that's OK with you."
“你可以给我她的联系方式，我会直接联系她一起出去吃顿晚饭。但是如果你觉得可以的话，我不想你介入其中。”
"OK. Do you have a recent photo? I will give it to her and ask her. And give me your phone number so that she can contact you directly."
“好的。你有近期照的照片吗?我会把照片给她并征询她的意见。也把你的电话号码给我吧，这样她好直接和你联系。”
"Here you go. Thank you."
“给您，这是我的近照，谢谢。”
In fairness this kind of conversation has happened to me in the US too but only among Chinese.
平心而论，这种对话在我在美国的时候也发生过，但是只发生在与中国人的交谈中。
There are a lot of desperate Chinese parents out there.
这世上有很多极端的中国家长啊。
不知道各位网友看了有什么感想吗?
