The development and changes of the motherland

Over the past 30 years of reform and opening up, with the rapid development of China's economy and society, the income of urban and rural residents has been increasing, and the living standards of residents have been significantly improved. Back to our real life, earth-shaking changes have taken place in the past 30 years.

This season is the season for planting rice in rural areas, and it is also the busy season for farmers in summer. Thirty years ago, when tractors first entered the countryside, farmers were still curious. Nowadays, traditional farming methods are gradually being replaced by roaring tractors, harvesters and other agricultural machinery. Many farmers are no longer satisfied with the traditional production and life style of "work at sunrise and rest at sunset". It is no longer unusual for farmers to buy tractors or cars. Now, in cities, buying a car is no longer a distant dream. On Fengjing Road, family cars of brands such as "Volkswagen" and "Nissan" run freely, which shows that 30 years of reform and opening up have greatly changed the lives of China citizens.

Thirty years ago, the lifestyle of residents was "four generations under one roof, ten square meters, and five generations under one roof". Today, with the improvement of living standards, farmers have built new buildings, and urban residents have changed from the previous bungalows to the present small high-rise duplex houses. People's living is developing in the direction of "higher, more spacious and more environmentally friendly", which reflects the great improvement of people's housing conditions, air conditioning and duplex housing. In the 1970s and 1980s, the "three things" that urban residents could not live without, such as sewing machine, black-and-white TV set and bicycle, have been replaced by high-grade household appliances. Imagine that in the summer of 30 years ago, people could only shake the cattail leaf fan to cool off the heat, but now it has been replaced by air conditioning.

Thirty years ago, due to the low family income, the limited funds were mainly for eating, and the planned economy implemented by the state for a long time, the production capacity was very limited. Ordinary residents can only rely on two legs to go to work and travel, and only a few people with better family conditions can use bicycles to travel. Nowadays, after 30 years of reform and opening up, the construction of urban basic roads and transportation facilities has been greatly improved. People usually have various tools to go to work and travel, such as bicycles, electric cars, motorcycles, buses and private cars. When they travel far away, there are trains and cars, planes in the sky and boats in the water. They can choose any combination at will, so that residents can feel convenient and fast everywhere.

Thirty years ago, people's entertainment was simple. After the reform and opening up, the state vigorously advocated the unity of material civilization and spiritual civilization, and spiritual civilization has been greatly developed. Film and television singing and dancing, reading newspapers, playing chess, painting and calligraphy, flowers, birds, insects and fish, surfing the Internet, traveling and hiking, and exercising and fitness, which once belonged to the rich, entered the homes of ordinary people and greatly enriched their spare time.

In the past 30 years of reform and opening up, with the reform of the national medical system, from establishing and improving the basic medical security system for urban workers, to the new rural cooperative medical system, and then to the health service system all over urban and rural areas, the public welfare of public medical and health undertakings has been well interpreted, making it possible for everyone to enjoy basic medical services. Many families have no worries and are no longer afraid of getting sick. Coupled with the rapid improvement of family income and living conditions, residents usually pay attention to their physical and mental health from subtle points, which has greatly changed from the phenomenon of "minor illness cured, minor illness not cured".

Thirty years of hardships and hardships, thirty years of vicissitudes. Reform and opening up have made China's economy flourish; Reform and opening up make people live and work in peace and contentment. Looking into the future, we have reason to believe that China will have a better tomorrow and our life will be richer and richer!
