Sample Sentences

老外收养中国孤儿也很不容易,手续繁琐,费用很高,还要等好几年。所以提出申请的一般都是非常爱小孩儿而且有一定经济条件的人。就像那个小女孩,养父母那么疼爱她,肯定比在孤儿院要幸福一万倍!

It's also very difficult for foreigners to adopt Chinese orphans. The process is complex, the fees are high, and you have to wait a number of years. Therefore, those who apply generally really love children and have a certain level of economic security. It's just like that little girl. Her foster parents love her so deeply. It's definitely much, much better than living in an orphanage!
