Episódio 3 - A literatura brasileira - 1ª parte

Dear Russian language learners!

If you travel to big cities in Russia - Moscow, Saint Petersburg or my native hometown Ekaterinburg (by the way it's absolutely beautiful and clean) you will need to buy a ticket (or a token) to use it. When buying a metro ticket you will absolutely need to use Russian language. 
Piece of advice: check online what type of tickets exist at the moment, plan which one is best for you and go exploring! 

Ваш преподаватель и поклонница поездок на метро,

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【二胎】的话题。
这个话题应该是中国独有的一个话题。为了解决人口问题和发展问题，1982年计划生育被定为中国的基本国策。随着中国社会的迅速发展，这个政策也带来了人口老龄化问题。这些年，中国的生育政策不断在调整、完善。
2013年，启动实施一方是独生子女的夫妇可生育两个孩子的政策。
2015年，全面实施一对夫妇可生育两个孩子的政策。
2021年，实施一对夫妻可以生育三个子女的政策。
在二胎政策开放后，并不是所有的父母都选择再生一个孩子。这背后有很多原因，比如经济因素，在大城市养一个孩子的成本太高了。而且如果夫妻双方都去上班，谁来帮忙带小孩也是个问题。家里的老人不一定能帮忙，请保姆的话又不放心。第一个孩子好不容易长大了，很多职场女性也不愿意再生二胎牺牲自己的职业发展。选择生二胎的夫妻，也有他们的考虑。
1.因为我两个孩子都是女儿，她们的这个成长之路是比较不孤单的。成长的过程中，两个人都会互相地去学习。
2.应该是幸福大于心酸，我觉得的话就是每一个孩子他都是一个独立人格嘛，只要按照他的特性来发展（就好了）。
3.独生子女更容易被这种爷爷奶奶加上外公外婆再加父母亲6个大人宠一个，其实有时候小孩子会比较骄纵。可是如果多个的话这种就比较分散一点，一些事情可以彼此去讨论，他们自己可以讨论，就形成一个小的同侪关系。我觉得这样是比较好的。
你会选择生二胎吗？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
