The “Father of Hybrid Rice”
Yuan Longping, known as the “Father of Hybrid Rice”, passed away in 2021, but his legacy lives on. His discovery of hybrid rice helped feed millions of people around the world.
Born in 1930, Yuan saw many people starve during a serious food shortage. This experience made him decide to study agriculture. In 1964, he found a natural hybrid rice plant, which was rare. For the next nine years, he and his team worked hard to develop a high-yield variety. In 1973, they finally succeeded. Their hybrid rice produced 20% more rice per unit than traditional varieties.
Yuan was not only a great scientist but also a humble man. He often wore simple clothes and worked in the fields himself. Even in his 80s, he continued to research new types of rice. He once said, “I have two dreams: one is to enjoy the cool under the rice crops taller than men; the other is that hybrid rice is grown all over the world.”
Thanks to Yuan’s efforts, China can now feed its large population. His work also helped other countries, such as India and Vietnam, increase their rice production. He was awarded the Medal of the Republic in 2019.

That day, Wang was walking near the park when he heard cries for help. He saw the girl struggling in the icy water. Without hesitation, he lay down on the ice and crawled toward her.

Unsung Heroes: Delivery Workers
When we think of heroes, we often overlook delivery workers. But during the COVID-19 pandemic, they became everyday heroes. They delivered food, medicine, and hope to millions of locked-down families.
Take Chen Ming, a 35-year-old deliveryman in Shanghai, for example. In April 2022, when the city was under lockdown, Chen worked 18 hours a day. He slept in his van and ate instant noodles. Once, he delivered medicine to an elderly woman who lived on the 20th floor without electricity. He climbed the stairs to ensure she got her medicine on time.
Chen was not alone. Thousands of delivery workers risked infection to keep the city running. They often faced discrimination and exhaustion, but they never stopped. “We are not heroes, but we are doing our job,” Chen said. “If we don’t deliver, people will starve.”
Their efforts did not go unnoticed. Many people thanked them online. Some even left drinks and snacks at their doorsteps. After the lockdown, the government honored many delivery workers for their contributions.
Delivery workers may not wear capes, but they are heroes in our daily lives. They teach us that heroism is not about fame, but about responsibility and kindness.

The Hero in My Heart
When we talk about heroes, many people think of famous figures like soldiers or scientists. But in my heart, a hero doesn’t have to be famous. My hero is my father.
He is an ordinary worker, but his qualities make him extraordinary. Every day, he works hard to support our family. Even when he is tired, he never complains. What impresses me most is his honesty. Once, he found a wallet on the street. Instead of keeping it, he waited for hours to return it to the owner. His action taught me the importance of integrity.
My father inspires me to be a responsible and kind person. He shows me that true heroism lies in everyday actions. I want to be like him—reliable, hardworking, and always ready to help others. He is not just my father, but my lifelong role model.
