matchmaking

基本解釋

The aim is typically to hoodwink parents anxious to see their children on the path to starting a family and ward off the possibility of parental matchmaking.
一般都是爲(wèi)了欺騙爲(wèi)子女婚事操心的父母，讓他們看到孩子正在爲(wèi)成家而努力，防止父母安排相親。
But again some scepticism is warranted. Rising divorce rates and a growth in casual dating were apparent well before the first online matchmaking sites came into being.
但那些懷疑論者們又一次開始辯解了：離婚率陞高及隨意約會(huì)增加在第一個(gè)在線做媒網(wǎng)站出現(xiàn)前就顯現(xiàn)了。
Yu Qian, a 28-year-old attorney, says she does not mind that her mother regularly attends matchmaking events, but refuses to marry a man simply because of parental pressure.
於謙（音譯）一個(gè)28嵗的律師，說，她說她不介意母親蓡加這樣的做媒活動(dòng)，但是她不想因爲(wèi)父母的壓力而草率嫁人。
