The gist of ancient poetry
At noon in summer, farmers weed and loosen the soil for seedlings under the scorching sun. The weather is hot and the labor force is tight. The farmers were so tired that they sweated, and the sweat dripped into the soil under the seedlings. Who knows that every grain of rice in the bowl is bought by farmers through hard work!

Guide reading
This poem illustrates the hard-won grain and urges people to cherish every grain.
One or two sentences: "It was noon when weeding, and sweat dripped down the soil." The poet described the hardships of farmers' labor in plain language. At noon in summer, when the scorching sun is on the head, farmers are still bending over to weed seedlings in the field, and a drop of sweat drips from their faces and falls on the scorching land. Although what is described here is only a typical lens, it summarizes the hard work life of the peasants all year round with their backs to the loess.
The poet's three or four sentences express his feelings and inspire people to think with backchat: "Who knows that every Chinese food is hard." Everyone should know this ordinary truth of life except children who are not sensible. But in fact, those exploiters who are not diligent, do not divide food, and enjoy the success do not even understand this basic common sense and have no sympathy for the sufferings of working people. They ransacked the grain that farmers exchanged for sweat, then squandered it at will, and even piled it in warehouses to rot and turn it into feces. "Who knows" means "who knows", and the implication is that not everyone can really understand the hardships of farmers. Therefore, these two poems are highly targeted, and the lines are full of deep sympathy and deep sighs. & lt/PGN0 182。 TXT/PGN & gt；
