In the past, people greeted each other by saying Have you had your rice? Some people still say it today. China is the worlds largest rice-growing country. In 2003, China grew 166 million tons of rice. But it is not easy to feed the worlds largest population. In the 1960s, thousands of Chinese died because they had no food to eat. In the 1970s, a Chinese scientist, Yuan Longping, grew a new kind of rice called hybrid rice(杂交稻). It makes 20 percent more rice than other types of rice. Hybrid rice is much stronger than common（普通的） rice. It can grow in lots of water or in not much water. It also doesnt easily get diseases or worms(虫子). Yuan is known as the father of hybrid rice. At the end of last month, he won the World Food Prize for his work to help feed so many people. Today, half of Chinas rice plants are Yuans special hybrid. China uses Yuans hybrid to grow much more rice than before. 1. In the past, Chinese people greeted each other by saying _”. A. How are you B. How old are you C. Have you had your rice D. Where are you going 2. China is the worlds largest rice-growing country means_ . A. Chinas rice is bigger than other countries rice B. China is a big country C. China is becoming bigger D.

Types of rice in China C. How to Grow Rice D. Rice Harvesting BToday there are 6 billion people on the earth. By the year 2050 there may be 12.5 billion. This is a lot of people to feed. We need more food. One way to produce more food is by growing stronger plants. For thousands of years, farmers have made plants better. Every season, they pick the best plants for the next season. It works very slowly. Since 1983, scientists have been able to change plants more quickly by changing their genetic material (遗传物质). Foods from plants grown in this way are called genetically modified foods (转基因食品), or GM foods. By changing the genetic material of a plant, it is possible to make new plants. They make plants which are strong against plant diseases. They can also help in our diseases: a kind of rice is being prepared(准备) ,for example, which stops people from becoming blind. Rich countries produce GM foods because they are easy to grow and bring in more money. Poor countries are interested in them because they help produ
