Language Points.
It was important to him that everyone should show the same kindness and care to everyone else, whether they were family, friends, or strangers.
对他而言,所有人都应当对他人施以同样的仁慈与关怀,不论对方是家人、朋友还是陌生人,这一点至关重要。 (教材P19 3a)
whether (conj.) 意思是 “不管......(还是); 或者......(或者); 是否”
作为 “不管...(还是); 或者...(或者)” 的意思时常与 or (not)连用,引导让步状语从句。
eg: Whether you are a student or a teacher, running is a great way to keep fit.
作为 “是否” 的意思时,引导宾语从句,有时可与if互换。
eg: You can ask your sister whether she will come to the party.

The person I admire most is Yuan Longping, a great scientist who was known as the “Father of Hybrid Rice”. It was great of him to develop a new kind of rice and help reduce hunger. Yuan was born in 1930, but it’s a pity that he passed away on 22 May 2021 in Changsha.
At a young age, Yuan Longping saw many people go hungry. He made up his mind to grow more rice to feed the world.For many years, he worked in the field day and night, testing different kinds of rice plants. Finally, he developed hybrid rice, which greatly increased rice production and helped millions of people out of hunger. In September 2019, he was awarded the Medal of the Republic.
Though he passed away in 2021, his spirit lives on. I think he is still a great inspiration to young people today. He inspires us to value science and hard work. His story tells us that with hard work and a kind heart, we can make the world a better place.
