Every grain of rice is hard work

The ancients said: "It is noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat is dripping from the soil. Who knows that every grain of rice on the plate is hard work." This poem has always been popular. Ringing in my ears.

The past events have merged into the ocean of my memory. How many silvery waves often appear in my heart, letting me recollect, let me treasure, and let me experience the true meaning and joy of life.

I remember one time when I was eating, I didn’t eat much because the food didn’t taste good. My father saw only grains of rice in my bowl and said sincerely: "Food is hard to come by, but you must cherish it! It is very hard for the farmer uncle to grow this food." Then, my father told me about the farmer uncle. How did he grow rice? He also said that he would take me to the fields to experience the hardships of the farmer uncle.

The fields are green, like big green blankets spread there. On this green blanket, there are many people busy doing farm work, some are plowing the fields, and some are Picking up seedlings, some... Look, a farmer in his thirties over there is throwing out seedlings. He takes out the green seedlings from a strange board and scatters them into the field to let them grow on their own. Every time he scattered a handful of seedlings, the sweat on his arms flew to the field along with the seedlings. In addition, there was a farmer's mother-in-law who was weeding. The mother-in-law gently bent down and touched the dirty weeds and mud with her clean hands. Although the weeds came out, her clean hands were dirty. The flaming sun shone on every farmer's back, and beads of sweat soaked through each of their clothes. Every farmer walked out of the field covered in mud and sweat.

Suddenly, I saw a sixty-year-old man working in the fields. He bent down for about five or six minutes, then stood up to stretch his waist, and kept beating his waist with his hands. The sun was scorching hot, and the beads of sweat on my head were falling drop by drop on the field without even having time to wipe them. At this time, I couldn't help but think of a poem: "It's noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat is dripping from the soil. Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard work."

I remember my grandfather told me before, When they were young, they often ate bark and wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger. If someone’s whole grains could fill their stomachs, that would be great. At that time, my grandfather’s biggest wish was to be full and have a bowl of white rice every meal. Hearing what he said, I suddenly woke up and decided to cherish food and not waste it in the future.

For food, farmers braved the severe cold and heat to work hard in the fields; for food, literati have chanted the touching poem "every grain of grain is hard work" over and over again.

From now on, whenever I eat fragrant rice. You can't help but think of the food that the farmer uncles exchanged for drop by drop of sweat.

Let us cherish the food that the farmer uncles have worked hard to cultivate, and every grain of it is covered with sweat.

With the gradual development of the times, from the past "food is the most important thing for the people" to "food is the most important thing for the people", more and more novel, weird and varied foods appear on our tables. Let everyone gradually forget the original meaning of food.

During the holidays, many people often come to the house as guests. Sets of traditional dishes are served. The eyes of the old people are full of smiles and satisfaction, while the children are holding the dishes next to them. Chopsticks muttered: "Why are these dishes again?"

I remember that day, when the dishes were served on the table, my cousin began to complain: "I have become tired of these dishes after eating them for so many years. Let's go out Eat KFC and McDonald's." The table was banged, and the grandparents were a little angry. There was a sense of vicissitudes in their brows. They stared at the dishes with far away eyes: "You kids. , now I think about good food all day long, and in fact some of it is already very good. I think back then we didn’t even have meat for every meal.”

Sitting aside! The adults also began to discuss: "Mom and Dad, this is the 21st century. Don't always talk to your children about things from the old days. Children, they always want to eat something good. It's human nature. The past is the past. Don't think about it again after it's over."

After hearing this, my grandparents looked a little embarrassed and disappointed, and shook their hands helplessly: "That's true, but..." "Okay, okay. Come on, stop talking about this." They were interrupted before they finished speaking, and they sighed deeply.

After the meal was finished, there were a lot of leftovers on the table. Looking at these dishes, my grandparents wanted to say something but still hesitated. They sat quietly beside me and at the same time I seemed to Their sighs were heard.

Sitting aside, I listened to everyone's chatter and thought about the articles I had read in the book. How could life get better now? What about those who were invaded by the war? They were not like their grandparents. Are they the same as their elders? Many people didn't have enough to eat because of the war. They didn't think about eating well, because even eating seemed a bit extravagant to them. Although our living standards have improved now, we can't think of ourselves everywhere. Maybe by saving a little food and a little water resources, those people will not be so poor.

Think about it, the whole world is now advocating low-carbon environmental protection, reducing carbon dioxide emissions, and reducing pollution to the earth. When we start to use less plastic bags, when we go out, we use less cars and walk more. , when we advocate that the world turns off the lights for an hour, we must also think about it, is it not within our power to save some food? Stop picking things at the dinner table, stop being addicted to fast food, and let the hard work reap the fruits of sowing. Isn't it more meaningful for food to fulfill its original duty than to leave a pile of leftovers on the table?

When carrying out low-carbon environmental protection, we should not forget the diet and food conservation that we should do in the first place. It is the simplest and most appropriate contribution we need to make.

The Story of Mooncakes

It’s the annual Mid-Autumn Festival again. In the evening, I happily went to my grandma's house for dinner with my parents.

As soon as I entered the door, my grandma greeted me cheerfully: "Ai Ai, come and try the fresh meat mooncakes that grandpa just bought!" When I heard this, my heart suddenly went cold and I shouted loudly. He muttered: "I don't want to eat this kind of moon cake, it's really off-putting!" The father on the side shook his head in embarrassment: "You are so happy, some of them are delicious!" Grandma also sighed with emotion: "When I was a child, I still I cried because I couldn’t eat mooncakes!”

It turns out that when I was a child, my grandma not only had to spend money to buy things, but also had to use tickets. She used food stamps to buy rice and meat stamps to buy meat... During the holidays, What's more, I have to get up very early and rush to town before dawn to queue up. I have to wait at least four or five hours to buy a certain amount of food. Now that I think about it, it’s really hard!

Grandma said she would always forget that Mid-Autumn Festival. That year, it was dark and misty, and as the eldest grandma in the family, my grandmother went shopping with a basket as usual. At that time, the line of people buying food was like a long queue, and grandma was so squeezed that she could hardly breathe. It was getting daylight, and grandma wanted to take out a delicious thing from her pocket-a small piece of moon cake to fill her stomach. When she touched her pocket, she was immediately dumbfounded: the mooncakes turned into mud and stuck to the pocket of her clothes. Grandma was extremely sad: The four children in the family shared the mooncakes, but I was reluctant to eat them. I didn’t expect that now I was so crowded that I couldn’t eat them. After shopping for groceries, she walked home dejectedly. When she saw her grandmother and mother, she burst into tears and was so sad that she couldn't say a word.

As I listened, my eyes couldn’t help but moisten. I was born in a world of blessings and don’t know how to be blessed. I am always picky about my meals. Now that I think about it, my grandmother’s childhood life is really incredible! Thinking of this, I looked at the edamame, taro, and moon cakes on the table, smiled shamefully, and then slowly started eating, suddenly realizing that the food I didn't like to eat turned out to be so delicious.

On this special day, remember the bitterness and remember the sweetness. Although the gloom of that era has long gone, our bright life does require our "growth" to last forever!

Sing the song of conservation and move towards a low-carbon future

Save food - a word I have heard countless times. China has a population of 1.3 billion, a quarter of the world's population! What is the area of ??cultivated land in our country? It only accounts for 7% of the world's arable land, but supports 22% of the world's population. Many people may not know this. From the ancient people who said "the day of hoeing is at noon" to the precise figures collected by people now, all of them show that food is hard-won. There are so many procedures from sowing to harvesting, how much hard work and sweat, how many pairs of hungry eyes are longing...Looking back, how many people who do not cherish food pour the hot steamed white rice into garbage bags. Seeing the indifferent and disdainful faces of the classmates in school and their actions without any hesitation, I couldn't help but feel a little chilled.

“If you are a drop of water, have you nourished an inch of the land? If you are a ray of sunshine, have you illuminated an inch of darkness? If you are a grain of food, have you nurtured useful life? ? If you are the smallest screw, will you always stick to your position in life? "Thrift is a virtue that the Chinese nation is proud of, a backbone that the Chinese people will never bend, and a concept that everyone firmly believes in. But now why our behavior has deteriorated? Saving is no longer considered a virtue, but is regarded as stingy and stingy.

Nowadays it seems that when talking about saving, everyone can’t help but think of the word low carbon. The establishment of Low Carbon Day is also imperative. Low Carbon Day aims to arouse human beings' awareness of caring for the earth and protecting their homeland, and promote the coordinated development of resource development and environmental protection. On this day, we will mobilize ordinary residents of the global village to participate in creating national and global solutions to pressing issues such as climate change through individual and group actions, and launch specific ideas for large-scale community "low-carbon life" activities in various places. Global warming is not only a challenge to mankind, but also a good opportunity to create a new era, a new economy, and a new culture. It is the driving force for technological innovation, industrial innovation, and value innovation.

We need to correct the opportunity. It is a shame to waste it. In a sense it is simply "criminal". The most important thing in everything is persistence. Saving money should start from scratch, especially persistence. One or two days is fine, but what about one or two years? What about longer periods of time? Not only for food, but also for saving to become conscious and become a habit. We can't just focus on this short week - the so-called annual food week. In fact, as long as we are willing, every day can be a food saving day. Saving food and low-carbon is not just a slogan, not just a call from us and everyone else. We hope that it will become a complex that is cast in the hearts of you and me, so that we can do it consciously.

Marx once said: "Frugality is tantamount to increasing production. The proposal to build a conservation-oriented society is also based on a clear understanding of China's national conditions and family wealth. Regardless of the amount of resources per capita or the financial resources of the government, enterprises, and families Judging from the situation, we are actually very tight. In a country like ours that is not rich, whether we can reach a higher level in life is related to social harmony and even the future of Chinese society. Cheng Qiu, only when frugality becomes a life attitude, a way of life, and an inner need, will we not be far from a truly frugal society."

"There is a big difference in the power of soil. There is a limit to what can be achieved by human power. If you take it in moderation and use it in an orderly manner, you will always have enough; if you take it in an excessive amount and use it in an undisciplined manner, it will often be insufficient..." The sound of reading is full of vitality. I hope we can put it into practice. The activities of cherishing food and saving food will be carried out in a down-to-earth manner.

Cherish food, save food, eliminate waste, and low carbon start from me

Students, when we see the bright five-star red flag rising, when we sing the majestic During the national anthem, our hearts were filled with pride and happiness. We are proud to be citizens of the great Republic of China, and we sing for today's happy life. But at the same time, are you worried about our motherland?

Our country has a large population. On average, one out of every five people in the world is Chinese. According to the 2000 census, my country's population has reached 1.3 billion. And what about the cultivated land area in our country? It only accounts for 7% of the world's cultivated land, but supports 22% of the world's population. The problem of feeding so many people has become the first big problem in our country. Have you ever worried about this biggest problem in our country?

Yes, we have the leadership of the Communist Party, we have a superior socialist system, and we have already solved the problem of feeding the people that old China could not solve for thousands of years. We should be proud of it! However, through the following figures, we should also see that the heavy population burden not only makes food a big problem, but also affects the speed of socialist construction in our country.

There is such a set of data. In 2000, my country ranked first in the world in terms of grain, cotton, and meat production. However, based on the average population, the per capita food supply is only 362 kilograms, which is lower than the world average and even lower than some developing countries. What’s even more touching is that isn’t New China today many times more prosperous than the Tang and Song dynasties more than a thousand years ago? However, due to the rapid increase in population, the per capita amount of grain was more than 200 kilograms less than in the Tang and Song Dynasties.

Someone has made this analogy: the mouths of 1.2 billion people combined are larger than the largest square in the world - Tiananmen Square. What a big mouth! Just the 15 million new people added every year will eat 5 billion kilograms of food! Therefore, increasing food production and saving food are of particularly great significance to our country.

Students all know that the United Nations designates October 16th every year as World Food Day, and the Party Central Committee and the State Council decided to designate the week of World Food Day as Food Festival Week. We must carry out various theme activities to cherish food and save food. Today, we know the national conditions and further clarify the special significance of cherishing and saving food. Each of our classmates must start from now and take practical actions to share the worries of the party and the country, and carry out the activities of cherishing and saving food. Carry on in a down-to-earth manner.

After taking a shower today, my mother was still washing clothes. I was lying on the bed alone and memorizing: It was noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat was dripping from the soil. Who knew that every particle of the meal was hard to recite... Carrying it on my back, I fell asleep in a daze.

"Sister Tiantian, sister Tiantian, would you like to have dinner with me today?" In the dream, my brother Yangyang and I came to a magnificent hotel for dinner. After a while, the waitress served us many dishes. At this time, Brother Yangyang wanted to eat rice, and the waiter aunt served him a portion of rice. However, the brother only took a small bite and found it unpalatable, so he asked the aunt to bring another portion of bread, but the younger brother removed the jam on the outside of the bread. After licking it, he said the bread was unpalatable and threw it aside.

At this time, a strange scene appeared: suddenly, the bread thrown away by the younger brother jumped up and said loudly to Yangyang: "You little brat, how can you not cherish our food like this? Food is hard-earned. , Now your human resources are getting less and less. If you continue to waste food like this, you will all starve to death one day!" As he said, all the food on the table was gone. At this time, my brother and I were terrified. The delicious food in our mouths disappeared, but I hadn't tasted its deliciousness yet? "Wait..." I shouted anxiously in my dream.

"Baby, wake up, are you dreaming again?"

"Yeah! A strange dream."

Although I answered my mother like this , but I am thinking in my heart: We must cherish the food, otherwise what else will we eat in the future?
