他是一位真正的耕耘者。当他还是一个乡村教师的时候，已经具有颠覆世界权威的胆识；当他名满天下的时候，却仍然只是专注于田畴。淡薄名利，一介农夫，播撒智慧，收获富足。他毕生的梦想，就是让所有人远离饥饿。喜看稻菽千重浪，最是风流袁隆平！

---袁隆平在2004感动中国中的颁奖词

有人曾经风趣地说，中国农民吃饭靠“两平”，一是靠邓小平的责任制，二是靠袁隆平的杂交水稻。今天中国水稻种植面积中，约有一半是采用袁隆平培育的杂交产品，每年生产的稻谷可以多养活6000多万人。2004年，袁隆平领导的超级杂交稻项目不断取得重大突破，在育种方面提前一年实现了大面积亩产超过800公斤的目标，这意味着每年又可以多养活7500万人。ResumeName:Nationality:Dateofbirth:appearance:Education:personality:Achievements:Dreams:Hobbies:YuanLongpingChinese1930sunburnt,slim,strongSouthwestAgricultureCollegecarelittleaboutmoneyandfamesuperhybridriceproduceexportviolin,mah-jong,swimmingPara1A.DrYuan’sdreams.Para2B.DrYuan’spersonality.Para3C.DrYuan’sbiography.Para4D.DrYuan’sappearanceandhisachievement.APIONEERFORALLPEOPLEMatchthefollowingheadingswiththerightparagraphs.LanguagepointsinReading1.In1974,hebecamethefirstagriculturalpioneerintheworldtogrowricethathasahighoutput. thefirst...todosth.
