Yuan Longping，the Father of Hybrid Rice（杂交水稻之父），was born in 1930.He became a teacher in Hunan province after graduation.

   He came up with an idea for hybridizing rice in the 1960s when China was caught by many natural disasters（灾难）.To help China get out of the troubles，he did the research on better rice.Because of his effort，China can provide more rice for its people.The hybrid rice also has great meaning to other countries.

   He was not only careful about science study，but also good at English and violin.He was interested in everything around him，so he was full of energy and always looked like a young man.

   Although he was rich and famous，he never paid more attention to money.The true richness lies in a person's heart，not the appearance.Also，the best things in life are free.

   "We can learn a lot from Yuan Longping 's scientific spirit and his life attitude（态度）."

   Wang Ping said. "Though we have enough food to eat，we should eat up the things we buy and stop food waste." Zhang Hua promised.
