1984年的金色10月,正当党的十二届三中全会召开之际,我有机会到山东省的泰安市、莱芜市、蒙阴县、济宁市等地区走了一圈。沿途所见,到处是一派喜人的丰收景象。在宽阔的公路两旁,在千家万户的庭院里,无不堆晒着农民们新收获的粮食。那黄灿灿的玉米和白花花的地瓜干,象金子和银子一样,在灿烂的阳光下,闪耀着诱人的光辉。 In 1984, when the Third Plenary Session of the 12th CPC Central Committee was held in October, I had the opportunity to go to Tai’an City, Laiwu City, Mengyin County and Jining City in Shandong Province. As you can see along the way, there are many gratifying harvests everywhere. On both sides of the wide road, in the homes of millions of families, all the new crops harvested by the peasants were sun-dried. The yellow corn and white sweet potato dry, like gold and silver, in the bright sun, shining attractive radiance.
