5 . Although he is one of China’s most famous scientists, Yuan Longping considers himself a farmer, for he works the land to do his research. Indeed, his sunburnt face and arms and his slim, strong body are just like those of millions of Chinese farmers, for whom he has struggled for the past five decades. Yuan Longping grows super hybrid rice. In 1973, he became the first agricultural pioneer in the world to grow the super hybrid rice that has a high output. This special strain of rice makes it possible to produce 20% more of the crop in the same fields. Now more than 60% of the rice is from this hybrid strain.

Born in 1930, Yuan Longping graduated from Southwest Agricultural College in 1953. Since then, finding ways to produce more rice has been his life goal. As a young man, he saw the great need for increasing the rice output. At that time, hunger was a problem in many parts of China. Yuan Longping looked for a way to increase rice output without expanding the area of the fields. In 1950, Chinese farmers could produce about 56 million tons of rice, but now nearly 200 million tons per year. Nearly 22% of the world’s people are fed from just 7% of the farmland in the world, which is due to the super hybrid rice grown by Yuan Longping.

10 . “I want to work full-time in China, honey.” An overseas call awakened the wife from sound sleep. “Why?” asked the wife with surprise, in a drowsy (昏昏欲睡的) voice, from the other side of the ocean.

In the United States, he had a great future ahead. At the age of 36, he became the youngest professor in the history of the Department of Molecular Biology at Princeton University, for his academic achievements. At 40, he became a tenured (终身的) chair professor at Princeton.

When everything seemed perfect and admirable to others, he firmly decided to say goodbye to Princeton University, to an affluent life in the United States, and return to China.

The news spread explosively. Many expressed confusion, many persuaded him, many made fun of him, and still many waited to have a good laugh at him.

He said patriotism is the plainest feeling of a person. Who doesn’t love his motherland, after all? In his heart, the American dream is already something past; the Chinese dream is rising.

After returning to China, he devoted all his energy, worked like crazy, and determined to do something big. He formed a life science research team. Every day, he works 12 to 16 hours at his laboratory. He is Shi Yigong, nicknamed “Da Niu” (someone with extraordinary achievements) by Tsinghua students. His given name, Yigong, comes from an idiom that means “devoted to public interest whole-heartedly”. “So far as I’m concerned, awards are of no special meaning.” Shi says calmly.

In his 18 years of study in the United States, he never forgot his Chinese dream. In the next 18 years, the Chinese dream will be more beautiful and greater by the efforts of Shi Yigong and the likes of him.

1. Why was Shi determined to return to China?

A．To serve his motherland.	B．To reunite with his wife.
C．To live a quieter life.	D．To make more money.

2. What does the underlined word “affluent” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A．Normal.

B．Miserable.

C．Wealthy.

D．Adventurous.

3. Why is Shi Yigong called “Da Niu” by his Tsinghua students?

A．To support his life science research.

B．To praise his honesty.

C．To introduce his endless energy in work.

D．To show his unusual achievements.
