Yuan Longping is a great scientist who developed hybrid rice(杂交水稻) in China. His research greatly solved the problem of the food shortage in the world.
Yuan Longping started the research in 1964. He put forward the idea of hybrid rice, did experiments(实验) on the farm, and succeeded in 1973. The new technology was tested in many areas of South China in 1974, and then he continued to test it in other areas. China has become the first country that can produce hybrid rice. Yuan made it possible to grow hybrid rice in large amounts, and he is called the "Father of Hybrid Rice".
Besides being a respected(受人尊重的) scientist, he is also a romantic husband and a caring grandfather.
Yuan's granddaughters remembered that when he traveled to Hong Kong, he wanted to buy his wife a new watch, but it was too expensive, so he bought a candy instead. When he was 90 years old, his family held a birthday party. Hundreds of people came to the party. There was a moving moment: Yuan cut the first piece of cake and immediately gave it to his wife. They also said that their grandfather paid much attention to their English and math studies. No matter how tired he was after work, he would still ask about their studies.
Yuan Longping loved playing the violin, swimming and driving. What's more, he had a special habit-playing mahjong(麻将) with friends for an hour every evening to train his brain. Just like common people, the scientist laughed when he won and didn't hide his disappointment when he lost. When his requirement(请求) to build a research center was agreed to, he was very excited.
This is Yuan Longping: an ordinary(普通的) person who made great achievements.

① With most people staying at home because of COVID-19, livestreaming(直播) has taken off. It is not only fun and interesting, but has also provided a new stage(舞台) for traditional culture artists.
② On video sites and apps such as Douyin and Bilibili, many traditional artists are trying livestreaming for the first time. Some of them sing Peking Opera, some show their hand-made products, while others perform classical Chinese music.

Dear Tony,
I'm so glad to hear from you. If you want to improve your Chinese, I think you can connect it with something interesting.
It’s a good way to listen to Chinese songs or movies. Also, practise it as much as you can. Speaking and listening are both important in learning languages. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes, just speak it aloud, and be confident in yourself. If you have any questions, you can ask me for help.
Of course, I have changed a lot. I used to be shy, but now i become more outgoing and join lots of clubs. I didn’t like sports at all in the past. Now i’m active in all kind of sports and I become strong and fit.
Hope to see you soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
