Give your opinion on an interview

Mandarin Corner films long, unscripted conversations with ordinary people in China, with Chinese, pinyin and English subtitles. Agree or disagree with one.

Pick one of the street or sit-down interviews on Mandarin Corner (life in a big city, work, family, money) and watch at least ten minutes with the Chinese subtitles on. Then leave a comment in Mandarin giving your own view: do you agree with the person, and why? Two or three sentences, typed with the Pinyin keyboard built into your computer or phone (Windows, macOS, iOS and Android all ship one), or in pinyin.

I agree with her. Life in a big city is stressful, but there are more opportunities too. What do you all think?
