You are interested mostly useless news.L: really cool! The news said: Chongqing, a testing center data show that last year received 600 cases of paternity, 90 per cent natural, 90% made by men, mostly from the couple parted ways. A pregnant woman in April, and examination of the three did not know who the father is.R: So what? Now free love, pregnant women do not know who the father is there are a lot. Suspect their children married non-biological forgiven. Now rising divorce rate, determine who raise children, to the hospital for a paternity test normal divorce.L: So in the future you have to be careful not raised your own children.R: Youre boring. Now there is a protocol called the prenuptial agreement.L: You have to sign a prenuptial agreement when you get married?R: Why not? A prenuptial agreement is a guarantee. After marriage, the couple owned property is common property. But feelings are ever-changing, if one day choose to divorce, with a prenuptial agreement can be a good solution to the dispute between husband and wife, in particular aspects of the property.L: You are too pessimistic. I think even without signing a prenuptial agreement, as husband and wife for many years, the property will not fight the divorce order.R: You are too naive. Once the crushing feelings of the people is the most important property. There are many divorce because of property issues and continue to go to court in the world.L: If you do this it will hurt both sides of the trust and affection. Why not build trust between the two sides of it? I think it is good not to sign a prenuptial agreement.R: Signing a prenuptial agreement does not mean to use it. Things change, with a guarantee emotional life was better.L: Youre desperate!场景3H：李，你怎么了？看起来有点不高兴。L：不是什么大问题。W：你和荣吵架了？L：不是，只是谈话不欢而散。H：这不是什么大问题。你们谈论什么？L：婚前协议。他认为结婚前应该签定结婚协议，我认为没必要。W：原来是这样。结婚协议不是什么坏事，你应该公正对待。L：难道你也认为结婚前应该签订婚前协议？这件事难道不会伤害夫妻间的感情和相互信任？H：冷静冷静。你先听我说。前些天我哥哥和嫂子犹豫要不要签订结婚协议而差点不能结婚。L：所以还是不要签订婚前协议最好，对吗？H：不，不是。经过他们的商量和讨论最终签订了一份婚前协议。你知道，女人对于婚姻是没有安全感的，不管是过去还是现在，女人都希望拥有一位全心全意爱护自己的丈夫。特别是现在，人们对感情的忠贞度越来越低，婚前协议其实是一种保护双方感情和责任的手段。W：我也这样认为。签订了婚前协议，不仅绝大多数的人没有因此离婚，而且会更让人安心。现在，婚前协议是家庭幸福的保障。有了婚前协议的约束，夫妻间的责任感和忠诚度都会增强。L：你说的很对，既然是协议，那便是双方的意愿。我应该对荣道歉。W：看！荣，来了。L：荣，不好意思。我对婚前协议的看法太简单了。R：没事。我没放在心上。恋爱虽易，协议虽易，婚姻不易，且行且珍惜。W：真好，幸福的结局。我们一起去上课吧！Action3H: Lee, how do you? Looks a bit upset.L: Is not a big problem.W: You and Rong fight?L: No, just the conversation broke up.H: Its not a big problem. What are you talking about?L: Prenuptial agreements. He believes that marriage should be signed before the marriage agreement, I think it is not necessary.W: So it is. Marriage agreement is not a bad thing, you should be treated fairly.L: Do you think that it should sign a prenuptial agreement before marriage? Would not it hurt the feelings and mutual trust between husband and wife?H: Calm and cool. You listen to me. A few days ago my brother and sister-in-law do not hesitate to enter into an agreement to marry and almost cannot get married.L: They still do not sign a prenuptial agreement is best, right?H: No, it is not. After their talk and discussion eventually signed a prenuptial agreement. You know, a woman for marriage is no sense of security, whether past or present, women want to have a dedication to caring for her husband. Especially now, people are more loyal to feelings of low degree, a prenuptial agreement is actually a means to protect both affection and responsibility.W: I think so
