英语自学网

　　The term “acquaintance blind date” literally means “exchanging grass”, with
grass referring to young men. Such events are usually initiated by “leftover
women” — single women who have passed the best age for getting married. These
women may bring single male friends, colleagues or relatives to a get-together
and expect to find their Mr. Right among their peers’ male friends.
        　　“换草运动”其实就是熟人召集的相亲会，这里的“草”指年轻男子。这种活动多数都是由大龄单身女们组织的，她们会把各自身边的男性朋友、同事或亲戚组织到一起参加聚会，希望能从对方带来的朋友中找到自己的另一半。
        　　This event originates from an online post that proposed to exchange male
friends or colleagues with other single women since it’s not a good idea to
develop a romantic relationship in the same office.
        　　“换草运动”是由网络上的一个帖子引发的，发贴人提议，既然大家都不方便发展办公室恋情，那就跟别的单身女交换认识身边的男性朋友或同事。
