As a famous biology professor at Fudan University, he spent over 16 years traveling across the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to collect wild plant seeds. When he first went to the high plateau, few people understood his work. The weather there was terrible: cold, thin air and sudden heavy rains. Every year, he spent more than 150 days in wild mountains. He carried heavy bags of tools and walked for hours to find rare wild plants. Local villagers often told him it was too dangerous to keep working there, but he never gave up. Zhong Yang had a simple but great dream. He worried that many special plants on the plateau might disappear because of climate change. If people lost these plants, we would lose valuable genes for new crops and medicine. In sixteen years, he collected more than 40 million seeds from over 1,000 kinds of wild plants. All the seeds were stored in national seed banks to protect plant resources forever. Besides collecting seeds, he trained lots of young local college students. He taught them how to study wild plants and hoped they would continue this important work after him. Sadly, Zhong Yang died in a car accident in 2017 while returning from a seed-collecting trip. Today, many young scientists follow his steps. People remember him not only for his great research results, but also for his spirit of selfless devotion and persistence. He teaches us that great achievements always come from long hard work and sticking to our dreams. 1. Where did Zhong Yang spend most of his research time? A. Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. B.
