根據(jù)表中所給的數(shù)字,自1970年至1990年中國農(nóng)民的個人收入穩(wěn)步增長。70年代中期農(nóng)民的收入還是相當(dāng)?shù)偷摹F鋫€人收入約為180元。但是,1980年平均個人收入增加將近50%,達(dá)到270元。如表中所示,他們的收入在1985年翻了一翻,總計為540元。此后收入的增加呈持續(xù)的趨勢??傊谶@20年中,農(nóng)民收入迅速增加。
中國農(nóng)民收入增加的主要原因有兩點。首先,我國政府一直在貫徹執(zhí)行改革開放政策。大量的鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)已在農(nóng)村建立起來了。這就大大促進(jìn)了農(nóng)村經(jīng)濟的發(fā)展。其次,中國的農(nóng)業(yè)政策進(jìn)行了巨大的改革,黨的政策調(diào)動了農(nóng)民的積極性。因此,農(nóng)業(yè)產(chǎn)量不斷上升。所有這一切使農(nóng)民的收入不斷增加。
我認(rèn)為,隨著一系列新的農(nóng)業(yè)政策的貫徹執(zhí)行,中國的農(nóng)業(yè)將得到更為迅速的發(fā)展。毫無疑問,農(nóng)民的生活水平將大幅度提高。
According to the figures given by the graph, the Chinese farmers’ personal income rose steadily from 1970 to 1990. In the middle of 1970’s their income was rather low. Their annual personal income was about 180 yuan. But in 1980 the average personal income increased approximately 50%, reaching 270 yuan. As is shown by the graph, in 1985 their income doubled, amounting to 540 yuan. After that there was a consistent tendency for income to grow. In a word, during the period of 20 years the farmers’ income had gone up rapidly.
There were two reasons for the increase in the farmers’ income in China. Firstly, the Chinese government had been carrying out a reform and opening policy. A large number of county-run enterprises had been set up in the rural areas. Secondly, a significant reform of agricultural policy had been carried out in China. The Party’s policy had brought farmers’ initiative into full play. As a result, the agricultural output had been on the rise all the time. All these factors resulted in the steady growth of farmers’ income.
I believe that with a series of agricultural policies being carried out, there will be even more rapid development in China’s agriculture. There is no doubt that the farmers’ living standard will be improved to a great extent. (220 words)
