Yuan Longping is a famous scientist who considers himself a farmer. Born into a poor farmer’s family in 1930, he graduated from Southwest Agricultural College in 1953. When he was young he saw hunger in the countryside and dreamed of huge rice plants that could feed more people. In 1974 he grew a super hybrid type of rice that could produce a third more rice than other types, which meant harvests could increase without making fields larger. In 1950 farmers in China could produce 50 million tons of rice now with his rice they can produce 200 million tons. He is not interested in money though and gives money to other researchers as he believes people with less money have fewer problems and dreams cost nothing. One of his dreams is to export his rice and feed people all over the world. (By Ray Cama)Task II. 略Task III．略Task IV．略。
