MODEL2 So many people in the United States get divorced!
Script
Kim: Hi Amy.
Amy: Hi! Look at this headline, Kim.
Kim: Wow! So many people in the United States get divorced!
Amy: But this is not uncommon 1 in west. In some places, the divorce rate can be as high as 50 percent.
Kim: It seems strange to me that Westerners fall head heels in love quickly, if not at first sight; but they also leave each other quickly.
Amy: Is it the same in your country?
Kim: I don’t think so. In my country, some marriages break up, but most couples stay together.
Amy: Do people get married young?
Kim: Not really. Not many people get married before the age of 20.
Amy: Hmm. Do woman usually work after they get married?
Kim: No, a lot of women stay home to take care of their families. But more women work now.
