给禾苗锄草的时候，正是太阳当空照的中午，农民的汗水滴落进禾苗下面的泥土里。有谁知道那盘子里的饭食，一粒一粒中都凝聚着农民的千辛万苦。
It is at noon that the sun hangs high up in the sky when the peasants are getting rid of the weeds in the paddyfields. Their sweat runs down and mixes with the soil. Do you know that each grain of rice in your bowl is the result of their hardship and toil?
