Yuan Longping is known as the "Father of Hybrid Rice".
His lifelong choice is to develop hybrid rice and help people get enough food.
It was a great challenge for him. He never gave up. He spent most of his time doing field research. Through years of hard work, he succeeded.
I’ve heard that he worked until his old age. His choice kept him busy but full of hope.
Because of his achievements, many people around the world have enough rice to eat.

Host: Thank you for watching "Shining Youth". Today our guest is Linda Brown. Welcome, Linda!
Linda: Hello! Thank you for inviting me here.
Host: As an outstanding 16-year-old student at a local middle school, you made a surprising choice a year ago. Why did you choose to be a car mechanic?
Linda: From a young age, I've loved playing with cars. I've always been really interested in taking them apart. It was fun to see how they worked. So it was an easy decision for me.
Host: Pardon me for saying so, but in many people's eyes, this is an unusual choice, especially for girls. The work may make you

dirty and tired. And it can be very challenging. Were your parents OK with that?
Linda: At first they weren't happy. They would rather I worked for the family business.
Host: Right, I love the butter biscuits your family make. But you didn't want to join the trade. So what changed your parents' minds?
Linda: Well, I did lots of research into the job. I also worked as a part-time mechanic for a year. My parents talked to my boss. They knew the skills required. They understood my love for the work, so they decided to support me.
Host: That's really touching! Now, a year has passed. Do you find studying car repair difficult?
Linda: Yes and no. On the one hand, I have to use computers and operate other high-tech machines. I have to learn a lot about physics and chemistry. On the other hand, I find the subjects interesting. It's worth the effort.
