To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, changes in my hometown

From 1978 to 2007, my country's economy achieved leapfrog development, with its GDP growing from 364.52 billion yuan to 24661.9 billion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of nearly 10%, and the economic aggregate leaping to the world's largest Fourth place; the output of major agricultural products and industrial products such as grain, cotton, meat, steel, coal, fertilizer, cement, etc. ranks first in the world; the total import and export trade increased from 20.64 billion U.S. dollars to 2.1738 billion U.S. dollars, becoming the world's third largest trading country ; Foreign exchange reserves increased from US$167 million to US$1,528.2 billion, ranking first in the world; per capita disposable income of urban residents increased from 343.4 yuan to 13,786 yuan; per capita net income of farmers increased from 133.6 yuan to 4,140 yuan. At the same time, political construction, cultural construction, and social construction have also achieved world-renowned achievements. The comprehensive national strength has been significantly enhanced, the international status has been continuously improved, and the socialist modernization drive has entered a new stage of development.

In the past 60 years, our country has solved the problem of food and clothing for 1.3 billion people, basically achieved a moderately prosperous level, and reduced the number of poor people from 200 million to more than 20 million in 60 years. The success of one country, two systems, the spectacular construction of the Three Gorges Project, the ascent of the Shenzhou manned spacecraft, the passion for the development of the western region, the complete success of the Olympic Games, the "reunion" of the three links across the Taiwan Straits... Countless great achievements are displayed in front of us, inspiring us Towards the next 60 years!

Changes in the 60th Anniversary of the Founding of the People’s Republic of China 60 years can be said to be a blink of an eye! 60 years of personal experience have allowed me to feel the pulse of social progress. 60 years of reform and opening up have benefited the lives of every Chinese. In December 1978, the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Party was successfully held, ushering in a new historical period of reform and opening up. This was a great turning point with far-reaching significance in the history of our Party since the founding of the People's Republic of China. The national economy has developed rapidly in the past thirty years, and our living and working conditions have also undergone tremendous changes in these thirty years. Everything from food, clothing, housing, transportation, living environment, and working conditions has been transformed. I heard from my mother that during the planned economy period, when vouchers were provided, you could buy at most two new clothes a year, and they were ordinary plain cloth. The expectation of "wearing new clothes during the Chinese New Year" was probably a wish shared by their peers at that time. If they could wear new clothes before the Chinese New Year, the satisfaction and pride they would feel when they were the envy of their neighbors would make today's young people unable to Understand, not to mention that every little angel now has at least multiple sets of clothing with good styles and textures and four distinct seasons. The supply of food is even more unforgettable for my mother. It is natural to buy meat with a ticket, but there is absolutely no choice between fat and thin, not to mention having to queue in an overcrowded open-air queue and worrying about whether there will be enough food when it is your turn. No goods are available for purchase. The scramble for food caused adults to quarrel and even grab each other, which frightened the children. When my mother was a teenager, what she was most afraid of was having her parents yell at her to queue up. She would often say stiffly when accepting this task, "I would rather not eat meat." Don’t stand in line.” Materials were extremely scarce in the 1960s and 1970s. A piece of brown sugar, fermented bean curd, or even chili noodles with a little salt were once shared snacks. The relish of eating them at that time was no less exciting than when children eat the latest food on the market today. To a certain extent, the pleasure after being numbed by chili peppers is no less satisfying than the pleasure after eating hot pot. Thirty years ago, many families had only one room. The layout was almost the same. A bed or a large cupboard was placed in the middle of the house. The curtain was drawn to separate the room into two rooms. The front was the living room and dining room. Mom It is said that they can only sit on the bed when playing, and those with better conditions can prepare one or two small horses or small wooden stools; families with many children must be designed with bunk beds, and behind the bed is the integration of another bedroom and storage room. . Now that conditions have improved, most people live in three-bedroom apartments assigned to them by their work units and have their own independent kingdoms. The excitement is self-evident. Not to mention how advanced the current automated office conditions are, just for drinking boiled water, I don’t know how many types of water heaters have been replaced. In the late 1950s, boiled water could only be pumped in the boiler room during the morning supply time to ensure that all water heaters were supplied. God's needs. Nowadays, when I sit at work, I reach out to the water dispenser to fill up pure water, and drink hot or cold water by myself. It feels so uncomfortable. There are also changes in communication tools. In the 1980s, hand-cranked telephones were used, which gave me a headache every time I needed to make contact. Not to mention that I had to get through to the operator at the post and telecommunications office first, and then transfer to a certain place or unit. The signal to the other party is not very good, so we have to make several calls, and sometimes it even takes a whole day to get through. In the 1990s, the pioneers of reform and opening up carried BB radios across their waists and used paging signals to call out at any time. Every time they made a call, they would deliberately pretend not to hear it and let it ring a few more times..., holder The pride is self-evident. By the turn of the millennium, Big Brother had become a status symbol. The holder not only had to shout in a voice that was disproportionate to his height, but also mixed it with local dialects at the same time to feel like he was a saint in front of others. Today in the 21st century, everyone has more than one mobile phone in their hand. No matter where they go, they are close to each other, achieving both work efficiency and economic benefits. All the changes in the past sixty years have made me deeply moved, but what I have experienced is only a small microcosm of the lives of millions of Chinese people. China's thirty years of reform and opening up have completed the course of hundreds of years of Western capitalist countries, and the great achievements it has made are hard-won.

We live in such a beautiful golden age, and this happy, stable and harmonious situation also needs us to cherish and maintain it. Through our efforts and struggle, the motherland will become more prosperous and stronger, and people's lives will become better and better!

I came to my hometown, ah! So beautiful! Is this my eyesight? I rubbed my eyes, okay? The previously bumpy and bumpy road has now become a smooth asphalt road. Both sides of the road are planted with flowers, plants and trees, bees are singing, butterflies are dancing, and tall buildings are rising from the ground. My father and I came to my uncle's house. Wow, my uncle's house has also changed. The walls were painted snow-white, as if they were made of pink jade or wrapped in silver. The furniture is also brand new, engraved with dragon and phoenix patterns. The house is very big. They no longer use stoves for cooking, but replace them with gas stoves, which is convenient and fast... I feel like I have arrived in a fairyland on earth. My uncle took me into a room and opened a piece of floral cloth. Ah, this is something I am very familiar with - a computer. The uncle manipulated the computer skillfully, as if talking about the piano. My sister also has a computer and she is pretty good at playing computer games. The old social concept of favoring boys over girls is gone now. I never imagined that the quality of people in my hometown would improve so quickly! After lunch, I took a leisurely walk and saw farmers in the distance no longer plowing the fields with old oxen, but using various tractors to plow the fields. The sound of plowing is like praising the changes in my hometown.

The people in my hometown have changed, the land has changed, the transportation has become more convenient, and there are telephones and so on. But what has changed? I was puzzled, and at this time, two women were chatting and laughing. One said: "It's better for the government. I don't favor boys over girls. Now I realize that girls are so great!" "So is my daughter..." I suddenly realized that this is the credit of the government! I think: If we get to the future, this place will definitely become better!

The gratifying changes

When I was a child, I often heard adults tell me that the world is constantly changing and everything around you will not remain the same for a lifetime. At that time, I didn’t quite understand it. I just felt strange why everything changed and even became completely unrecognizable. It's like a face change in a movie.

After a few years, I have become sensible and seem to understand a little bit. All things are developing, just like time is constantly passing away. Although the development is fast or slow, they will all evolve. Becoming different from before is the magic of development and the driving force that promotes their continuous development.

When I grew up, I saw people and things coming and going around me, and the environment was constantly changing. I fully understood the importance of development, let’s take Hangzhou as an example. No, if we want to talk about the changes in Hangzhou, I’m afraid we can’t finish it in just a few days and nights. Let’s narrow the scope and talk about Wen Er Road, which is neither long nor short.

My elders told me that about twenty years ago, there were not so many houses there, and most of them were farmland and cemeteries, which were very desolate. Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I can probably imagine what it was like at that time.

I have lived in that area since I was a child. When I was a primary school student, because the school was near my home, I walked around there very frequently. At that time, the road was better than before. There are many, but in the end it can only be regarded as a small alley at best. When the wind blows, the dust flies and the eyes are foggy. When it rains, it's not much better. If you walk there, you have to wash your shoes once, because the ground seems to be covered with a thick layer of mud.

About ten years have passed, and Wen'er Road has completely changed. It is like a grown up child, showing its charm. Although it can't be compared with the city center, it still has a look. Shops on the roadside have been opened and renovated again and again. The road has also become wider, and cars are passing by on it, making it look like it is connected in all directions. This is no longer the old Wen'er Road. It represents the most significant change in the new century and represents Hangzhou's progress towards a higher level.

The joy lies in the change.

On December 8, 2008, a meeting to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was held grandly in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Hu Jintao, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, President of the State, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, delivered an important speech at the meeting. He said: "Comrades! On December 18, 1978, 30 years ago today, the third session of the Eleventh Congress of the Communist Party of China was held. The Plenary Session of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was solemnly convened. This meeting achieved a great turning point of far-reaching significance in the history of our party since the founding of New China, and opened a new era in the history of my country's reform and opening up..." 2008 was an exciting era. It is the year of the Olympic Games, the 59th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the 30th anniversary of reform and opening up! Reform and opening up has brought China step by step towards prosperity, and the Chinese people can live and work in peace and contentment. The Qinghai-Tibet Railway is an almost impossible railway, but the Chinese people have achieved it; the speed of trains has been increased many times, making people's lives more convenient; the construction of Olympic venues, and the successful hosting of the Olympic Games have made the whole country cheer... China is using its own wisdom and Sweat accomplishes one feat after another!

The following will introduce one by one the four aspects of "food, clothing, housing and transportation" before and after the reform.

Clothing: Due to low income, most farmers have to live a tight diet, and their clothing is very simple. Those who have cotton clothing for one or two seasons all year round are considered rich. Dad said: "During the Chinese New Year, the family I just bought a new piece of clothing. "My mother said: "At that time, there were many children in the family, and the eldest brother wore the clothes that were too small for the second child, and the second child gave them to the third child... and finally tore them into small pieces to use as patches. "Now, the clothes are now. At least one or two hundred yuan, and it's colorful, and the workmanship skills have improved a lot.

Food: 30 years ago, people needed to buy daily necessities with tickets, which was a "planned economy"! Now we can buy with banknotes, and there is no longer a "planned economy". Grandpa said: "When I was a child, my family had a large population. I was the eldest among the children. There was no food at home and the Japanese army raided it, so I worked as a coolie. I was given a few kilograms of millet a month or a week, which was enough for the family. People can afford it." After hearing this, I thought with a tremor: "You have to work hard to get a few kilograms of millet, but it is so easy to buy it now." In the past, they rarely ate white rice, and they could not even eat it. When we arrived, we couldn't even have enough to eat, but now we have to eat every meal. People in the past were always thin because they never had enough to eat. Their staple food is just some home-grown vegetables and sweet potatoes. It used to be difficult to find a fat person, but now it's even harder to find a skinny person.

Accommodation: In terms of housing, 30 years ago, a family of six people lived in an old mud house with an area of ??less than 40 square meters. A bigger house. In summer, they sleep on the street at night; when it rains, they put straw mats on the roof to prevent leakage; in winter, the whole family stays together to maintain the temperature. Nowadays, housing is in high-rise buildings, and several families live in a 90-square-meter house, which is very convenient. In summer, the air conditioner delivers cool air; in rainy days, it does not leak; in winter, the heater keeps the room warm.

OK: When it comes to "OK", everyone has witnessed it. From bicycles to motorcycles, from motorcycles to cars, then from cars to ships, and then from ships to airplanes... Chang'e 1 and Shenzhou 7 sailed into space and attracted worldwide attention. What exciting times will happen this year?

The Chinese nation is like a giant, standing in the east of the world. In order to realize our glorious mission, we must study hard and arm ourselves with the most advanced scientific and technological knowledge and the splendid culture of mankind. Learn the ability to see the motherland well. Dedicate your talents to your job tomorrow. I firmly believe that with our unremitting efforts, the sky will be bluer, the mountains will be greener, the water will be clearer, the economy will be more prosperous, the people will be happier, and the country will be stronger. brilliant!

In recent years, with the development of science and technology, social progress, transportation has become increasingly developed, and people's travel methods have become increasingly diversified. However, behind this phenomenon, there is also a major issue that cannot be ignored - traffic safety.

In the 60 years since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, major improvements have been made in transportation. The streets are less crowded and more orderly. 60 years ago, "When you open the door, you will see a mountain, when you raise your head, you will find a slope, and when you take a step, you will find a hurdle. The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to reach the sky." 60 years later, the three-dimensional transportation hub network constructed by water, land and air allows us to "all roads lead to Rome" ". Data from the Municipal Transportation Commission shows that since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the city's transportation landscape has undergone earth-shaking changes, with highway mileage alone increasing 5.8 times. Although the city's citizens' views on traffic safety have improved, they still need to be promoted.

It is understood that in 2006, 378,781 road traffic accidents occurred in *** nationwide, a decrease of 15.9% from the previous year. The death toll from road traffic accidents fell below 90,000 for the first time since 2000, with 89,455 people killed, a decrease of 9.4% from the previous year.

In our modern society, urban roads are not only passages for the movement of people and objects, but also a testing ground that reflects the level of civilization of a country or region. Many countries attach great importance to traffic safety education. Children receive traffic knowledge education from an early age, and everyone travels in strict accordance with traffic regulations.

Although our country also attaches great importance to traffic safety and traffic civilization, compared with other countries, it has not done enough. Every day, pedestrians, bicycles, and vehicles that do not obey traffic rules are everywhere on the road. For example, non-motor vehicles cross the line when encountering a red light, drive in the wrong direction on the lane, illegally carry people and goods, pedestrians do not use the sidewalk, cross the guardrail at will, and cross the motor vehicle lane indiscriminately, etc. Sometimes when I cross the road, I often see pedestrians ignoring the traffic light and running through the red light when the light is red, or cars taking advantage of the time difference at the intersection to speed up and rush past pedestrians crossing the road when the light is green. my country's traffic regulations clearly stipulate: "Vehicles passing through a crosswalk must stop or slow down to give way when there is a traffic signal to let pedestrians pass; when passing a crosswalk without signal lights, they must pay attention to avoid pedestrians." In real life, there are traffic signals The intersections are better. The intersections without traffic signals are a chaotic scene, with heavy traffic and no concessions. In our modern society, vehicles drive in accordance with the law and pedestrians drive in accordance with the law. This is part of traffic civilization. In addition, traffic police management in accordance with the law and civilized enforcement are another part of traffic civilization. Only when these two parts are "displayed" on the road at the same time can a complete traffic civilization be formed.

1. Colorful costumes

①The period of the founding of the People's Republic of China - the transition between the old and the new, revolutionary characteristics

When New China was first founded, people's clothing still retained the styles of the Republic of China. Urban citizens generally wear robes with buttons on the sides, and women wear cheongsam. Rural men generally wear Chinese-style cardigans and trousers, while women wear left-cardigan shirts and trousers, and some even wear a long skirt. At that time, most of the fabrics people used to make clothes were woven "foreign cloth", cheesecloth, and linen. In addition, suits and tunic suits are also in fashion. In his later years, Sun Yat-sen often wore clothes that stood out among his robes, mandarin jackets, suits and leather shoes. People called this kind of clothes the Mao suit, and associated its style with Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary beliefs and principles. For example, the four pockets symbolized the four dimensions of the country. , namely etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame; the three buttons on the sleeves represent the Three People's Principles of nation, civil rights and people's livelihood. The Mao suit has become a symbol of the national revolution. In fact, the Kuomintang has already betrayed the revolution.

After the founding of New China, dressing up and revolution were closely linked. Suits and cheongsam are regarded as bourgeois sentiments, and they have gradually disappeared from people's lives for nearly 20 years. Mao suits and Lenin suits have become common choices for people. During the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China, the leaders of New China made a collective appearance on the Tiananmen Gate for the first time. The image of Mao Zedong and the leaders around him wearing Chinese tunic suits attracted world attention. Men wear Chinese tunic suits to look dignified and energetic. The Chinese tunic suit is very orthodox, with many buttons on the top and four flat pockets, but the style is too rigid and lacks innovation. Later it evolved into people's clothing with certain improvements. From that time on, a double-breasted uniform from the Soviet Union, the "Lenin suit", became popular among working women. It is named after Lenin often wore it before and after the October Revolution. The style is a suit with an open collar, double-breasted, three buttons each, and a cloth belt at the waist. This clothing later became the most admired and favored "fashion" of countless Chinese women. Among them, almost all revolutionary female cadres must wear Lenin clothing to show their revolution.

② Before reform and opening up - simplicity and monotony

People in the 1950s believed that labor was the most glorious, and simplicity was fashionable. Young girls once fell in love with men's overalls and plaid shirts. In 1956, the three major renovations began to be carried out vigorously. As people's lives improved day by day, the popular colors also changed from blue and gray to rich and colorful. The dress "Braj" introduced from the Soviet Union became the most popular garment. The popularity of Bragi skirts in China is attributed to a Soviet leader. When the leader visited China, he suggested that China's clothing did not conform to the image of a major socialist country and that "women should all wear colorful clothes to reflect the flourishing face of socialism." As a result, brightly colored Bragi skirts have become the most beautiful scenery in major and medium-sized cities.

In an era where diligence and frugality were important, most of the beautiful clothes were made at home. Skilled girls and mothers made their own military uniforms fit and cotton shirts beautiful according to the clothing cutting patterns in the pictures. At this time, the Chinese tunic suit became the most solemn and common clothing in China. At that time, owning a woolen tunic suit was an enviable thing, and inserting one or even two pens in the upper right pocket of the tunic suit was a symbol of knowledge and ability. cultural expression. Later, based on the characteristics of the Chinese tunic suit, someone designed more concise and lively "people's clothing", "youth clothing" and "student clothing". There is also a slightly improved version of the tunic suit, in which the neckline is enlarged and the lapels are also enlarged from small to large, which is very popular among people. At that time, Mao Zedong, the leader of the Republic of China, especially liked to wear this style of tunic suit. Later, some people abroad called this style of Mao-style Mao suit "Mao-style Mao suit." Since then, the popularity of the Mao suit has lasted for nearly 30 years.

The early 1960s was the most difficult period in the history of New China. Due to three years of natural disasters, cotton production was significantly reduced from 1959 to 1960, and the cotton cloth ration was 21 feet per person. People buy clothes, cotton cloth and daily textiles with cloth coupons. In order to save as much as possible, the criteria for buying clothes are wear resistance and resistance to stolen goods. Gray, black and blue have become popular colors on the street. They are all the same regardless of season. , Men's and women's clothing styles are also more popular. A cartoonist once vividly described the situation where "everyone is dressed in blue".

During the "Cultural Revolution", owning a military uniform was the ideal of countless young people of that era. Teenagers like to wear grass-green military uniforms, grass-green military caps, and carry grass-green schoolbags on their shoulders. This outfit was considered very luxurious and elegant at the time. Of course, hardship and simplicity were still the most mainstream fashion at that time. In order to show their hard work and simplicity, some people even wear newly bought clothes in water, or put a few patches on undamaged clothes. This kind of behavior seems quite ridiculous to people today, but it became popular during the ten years of the Cultural Revolution. The jingle at that time went like this: Three years of new life, three years of old life, three more years of sewing... There is also a song that also floated in the streets and alleys in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China: Diligence and thrift are our good traditions, socialism Construction is inseparable, inseparable...

However, even in an era of single color, people's love for beauty will still be revealed. A photographer called this expression "unstoppable" "Living in the spring light", this naturally conveyed pursuit of beauty is a deep imprint of an era left in people's minds.

③Since the reform and opening up - colorful, fashionable and individual

Since the reform and opening up, the colors and styles of clothing have become more diversified, and the fabrics and textures have also undergone great changes.

1980 is the third year of China’s reform and opening up. With the development of the times, people's clothing has become more and more diverse, and the colors have changed from single blue to gray to colorful. The domestic feature film "Love in Lushan" released at that time became a favorite film among young people. The long-lost love story and the novel fashion of the heroine in the film all give people a refreshing feeling. How many sets of clothes she changed in the film became a hot topic among young people at the time. During this period, wearing sunglasses, long hair, bell-bottoms, and bat shirts became fashionable. Many people were not used to it, but young people found their individuality and sense of self.

The first fashion model team in mainland China was established in 1981. Although it only enrolled students in the name of "Clothing Advertising Art Performance Class" at that time, what surprised the organizers was the number of people who came to sign up. Four times as much as expected. Three years later, the performance team toured Europe and caused a sensation. Western public opinion exclaimed: "Mao Zedong's children are wearing fashion!" The fashion whirlwind from China has brought a new image of openness to the world.

In 1984, when the Chinese women's volleyball team won three consecutive championships at the Los Angeles Olympics, sportswear became popular in Beijing. Brightly colored sportswear has become the first choice for people who love beauty. People wear sportswear almost anywhere and anytime, and it has even become school uniforms for students and factory uniforms for workers.

In the 1990s, people's lives transitioned to a moderately prosperous life, and their ideas became more open. People's clothing is changing rapidly. Dressing emphasizes individuality and change. It is difficult to summarize fashion trends with one style or color. Emphasizing individuality and not chasing fashion has become a fashion in itself.

From the changes in clothing, we can see the progress of the times and the changes in people's inner concepts. Changes in clothing are based on economic development, and also reflect the changes in people's ideas and concepts with the changes of the times, from the past "herd" mentality to "the pursuit of individuality." Changes in clothing are a manifestation of the improvement of people's quality of life.

2. Increasingly rich diet

There is a saying that "food is the first necessity of the people". It can be said that people regard "food" as the minimum standard of life, and at the same time, people also regard "food" as their first priority. "Food" is the highest pursuit and enjoyment of life. From the changes in "food", we can reflect the rise and fall of wealth and poverty in a society, and we can appreciate the changes in social history.

① In the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic of China - living in poverty, not having enough to eat or having a meager diet

② Before the reform and opening up - there was great improvement, but food was scarce and monotonous, tickets were prevalent, and people were undernourished. Some rural areas have not solved the basic problem of food and clothing.

Food stamps are a product of the planned economy. In the early 1950s, there was a food shortage in our country. The Central Government Affairs Council issued an order in October 1953: A nationwide planned supply of grain was implemented and a method of quantitative grain sales based on vouchers was adopted. Food stamps appeared. Since August 1960, the city's catering industry in Beijing has implemented ticket-based dining, and limited supplies of cooking oil, poultry, eggs, meat, soy products, and vegetables have also been implemented. During this period, there were many kinds of bills. In addition to grain, oil and cloth coupons, they also issued subsidized bean coupons, pastry coupons, oil coupons for advanced mental workers, and holiday subsidized oil coupons. In some places, briquette coupons, popsicle coupons, and cigarette coupons were also issued. Liquor, candy and tofu tickets. In the era when tickets were popular, there was also an era of material shortages. Only during the holidays, people could buy some pastries, candies, and dry fruits with tickets, and the portions were very small.

Question: Why do people use tickets on page 112 of the book?

Student answer: Because the productivity level is not high and material supply is tight, vouchers need to be used to limit people's purchasing power.

During the three-year natural disaster period, food and vegetables were in short supply. When they were not full, people often ate carrots to satisfy their hunger. People are a little bloated due to a lack of basic nutrients.

③Since the reform and opening up - not only can you eat well, but you can also eat well, with balanced nutrition and a good mix of thickness and thickness. Green food has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Since the 1990s, food supply and demand have moved toward the market. The demise of food stamps has become a historical necessity. In May 1993, Beijing finally stopped using food stamps, and food stamps completely disappeared from the stage of history. Some cloth stamps, oil stamps, meat stamps, and tofu stamps that symbolized the shortage economy have also withdrawn from people's daily life. Today these symbols of the times have become treasures in the hands of collectors.

Today, our material life has been greatly enriched. We have a wide variety of food in wet markets, supermarkets, and hypermarkets. People's requirements for food are also getting higher and higher. They must not only "eat well", but also eat healthily. The concept of scientific hygiene is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. People pay attention to balanced nutrition, good matching of thickness and light taste. They should eat more fruits and vegetables and less high-fat and high-cholesterol foods. Wild vegetables and whole grains that were used to satisfy hunger in the past due to insufficient food have now become healthy foods on the table.

"Use your brain": Why have wild vegetables and whole grains, which were used to satisfy hunger in the past due to insufficient food, now become delicacies on the table?

Answer: Because in the past, people were short of food and only had wild vegetables and whole grains. People had no choice to satisfy their needs. Nowadays, food supply is abundant, and people not only need to eat enough, but also eat well. People pay attention to nutritional balance, combination of thickness and thickness, and choosing green foods.

The improvement in people's living standards reflects the further development of social productivity and the prosperity of the socialist market economy since the reform and opening up.
