 Topic1 Love hunters25-year-old Gao Yongxiang is one of China's premier1 "love hunters", a new breed of matchmakers who differentiate2 themselves from the more conventional end of the trade. His job involves searching out potential wives for some of China's richest bachelors. The company that employs Gao, Diamond Love and Marriage, caters3 to China's nouveau riche men - and occasionally women - who are willing to pay at least 10,000 yuan to outsource the customized search for their ideal partner.

Why? Is there demand?
Topic2 40% middle school students in loveShanghai local media reported a study of adolescent romance found that 40 percent of high school students have been involved in a romantic relationship. Researchers interviewed 738 students in four middle schools and four high schools in Yangpu district of Shanghai. The finding shows that a majority of students remain wary4 about sex and romance as many parents and educators hold fast to the belief that young love is something best delayed. Is the number high? Is it being under-reported still?
Topic3 How to Woo A GirlOutright confession5 of love or indirect hints, which is more effective at wooing girls? This is the topic of a debate competition between Central China University of Science and Technology and Zhongnan University of Economics and Law.
This is a bit of a dull topic, but it’s probably dull because everyone talks about it. But do you think it’s weird6 or suitable to talk about such a topic on a debate competition?
Topic4 Eight standards to define puppy loveHow to deal with young couples on campus is always a headache for middle school teachers. A middle school in Xiamen starts tackling this headache by carefully defining what puppy love is. Recently, Xiang’an No.1 middle school in Xiamen drafted eight standards about how to define a love relationship between male and female students, which raised a hot debate about puppy love among teenagers.
Why define it? Is puppy love a problem?
Topic5 College love reportMost people believe that in college, relationship is one of the most important subjects for students to learn. So when it’s time for graduation, 40% of the students decide to end their relationships right way.
Recently, a dating website issues a report about how the college students deal with their relationships. It seems that these youngsters know very well what they want from campus romance.
Is there anything in the report that jumps out at you?
Topic6 60% Girls Hate Public Confession of LoveOn the internet, we always see boys profess7 their love in public, for example, sending 999 roses to the girl on the street, or singing a song under her window. Though it sounds very romantic, a recent survey shows that the success rate is low. 60% of the girls think such profession of love is unacceptable.
Is public confession of love such a bad idea?
Topic7 The 20-yuan pocket money husbandA recent online post by a wife saying that her husband usually takes only 20 yuan with him every day as emergency allowance has surprised many.
The discussion has got quite heated among Chinese women about how much money a husband should bring with him as pocket money.
How much allowance should a husband get? And who should control the family purse?
