Don't waste 400 words of composition.

After the new national leaders took office, they proposed to be diligent and frugal and oppose extravagance and waste, and I supported them with both hands. Diligence and thrift are the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation, and we should inherit the fine traditions of the nation.

"Looking ahead to the sage countries of the past, turning frugality into extravagance and failure". This is a profound warning for people of insight in the historical trend from the experiences and lessons of countless families, countries and dynasties. This sentence is telling us that if the country wants to be rich and strong, it must be thrifty. According to incomplete statistics, only the food wasted on the dining table every year is enough for 654.38+100,000 people to eat for one year. "Diligence and thrift" has now become almost synonymous with "small-scale peasant economic thought". Luxury is regarded as "style" while "economy" is regarded as "incompetence". Some people are not ashamed of extravagance and waste, but are proud of it, enjoying life and spending. Although our country is much richer than before, people no longer worry about eating and drinking. But we must not forget that there are still more than 29 million poor people in rural areas of China who have not been able to solve the problem of food and clothing; There are still more than180 thousand people whose urban net income is below the minimum living security line; Many teachers in poor areas can't pay their salaries, and children can't afford to go to school. Many places rely on financial subsidies from the central government to maintain their balance of payments.

Since ancient times, frugality is the cause of failure, and luxury is the cause of failure. We should form the good habit of saving a drop of water, electricity, a piece of paper, a drop of oil and a grain of rice. Carry forward the fine traditions of our Chinese nation.
