题目：
What do you think is the ideal time for people to get married?
满分答案：
Um, by "ideal time", do you mean at what age should people get married?
Well, to be honest, I'm not quite sure about this.
I know that in China, the age limit for people to tie the knot is ... um ... it's 22 or older for men and 20 or older for women. In some European countries, as far as I know, it's a lot younger - 16 or even 14.
What I think is that if people get hitched way too early, they're actually not mature enough to handle some problems in life, like financial difficulties and raising children, and this might give rise to more serious problems in their marriage.
So yeah, thinking about it, I think the Chinese age limit is pretty good.
