英语翻译第四段There is another note that must be made for the year 2004.Due to rampant land takings pushed by local govern- ments in violation of existing laws and policies,the central gov- ernment instituted a six-month moratorium of all land takings from April to October 2004.Clearly,the upward trajectory resumed after the moratorium.The urgent need for reform of land-taking laws and practices is underlined by the further findings discussed here.第五段The Chinese Constitution grants the state the authority “to expropriate land,in the public interest,for its use.” The LML also provides that “[t]he State may,in the public interest,lawfully requisition land owned by collectives,” without offer- ing any further details on what could constitute “public inter- est.”However,this constitutional mandate of “public inter- est” is made inoperative by the broad requirement in the LML that all uses of land for non-agricultural purposes must use state-owned land.The operation of the LML is in effect an authorization of state expropriation of rural land for all pur- poses,including pure commercial purposes as disclosed in the survey results,resulting in a state monopoly of the non-agricul- tural land market.Under the present legal regime,a farmer has no power to negotiate or make a private transfer of his or her land rights for a non-agricultural use.If a commercial de- veloper is interested in converting a piece of agricultural land for non-agricultural use,he or she has to ask the responsible government agency or local government to exercise its emi- nent domain power so that the use nature of the land can be legally changed.
