Sample Sentences

想得美！你是不是去过几次“农家乐”，就以为全国农民都很悠闲自在？典型的农民守着一亩三分地，面朝黄土背朝天，你吹空调吃冰激凌的时候，他们还在烈日下除草施肥呢！

That's wishful thinking! Is it because you've been on a few "Happy Peasant Household" tours that you think all peasant life is so carefree and relaxing? The typical peasant is resigned to his plot of land and toils over it with his back to the sky. While you're eating ice cream with the air conditioning on, they're weeding and spreading fertilizer under the hot sun!
