你明显歧视中国农民嘛!现在农民的生活可是起了翻天覆地的变化。国家已经取消了农业税,外国农民可是要交很多税的哦!政府还提高了粮食收购价,农民再也不是靠天吃饭了。而且现在农民也懂得市场规律了,什么好卖种什么。没听说过吗,还有城里人去农村包地种红薯,都发了!

Obviously, you look down on Chinese farmers. There have been earth-shaking changes in farmers' lives recently. The government has abolished the agricultural tax-- farmers in other countries have to pay so much in taxes! The government has also raised the purchase price of grain, so farmers will never again have to rely on Nature to eat. And modern farmers understand the laws of the market, so they plant things that will sell well. Haven't you heard: there are urban dwellers who go to the villages, rent land, and plant sweet potatoes, and they've gotten rich on it!
