中國(guó)的郵局一般不會(huì)使人聯(lián)想到愛情。不過，據(jù)英國(guó)廣播公司報(bào)道，北京的這家郵局現(xiàn)在正推動(dòng)一項(xiàng)計(jì)劃，希望能遏制中國(guó)持續(xù)攀升的離婚率。? |
| Newly-wed couples are being offered the chance to send sealed love letters which will be delivered seven years after their big day. The idea is that couples thinking of splitting up will receive a timely reminder of why they got together in the first place. |
新婚夫婦可以互相寫一封情書，不過這封情書在七年之后才能送到對(duì)方手中。此舉是為了七年之癢到來之時(shí)，想要分手的夫妻能夠得到一個(gè)及時(shí)的提醒，告訴他們當(dāng)初為何選擇在一起。 |
| Once rare, divorce is now common in China. The number of failed marriages has doubled in the last decade. |
