Given that Yuan’s hybrids made him quite wealthy, one might think he would have retired to a life of leisure. However, this is far from the case. Deep down, Yuan was still very much a farmer at heart. As a man of the soil, he cared little for celebrity or money. Instead, he made large donations to support agricultural research.

Yuan cared little for fame or wealth.
Why
He was very much a
farmer at heart.
He thought himself a
man of soil.
How did he deal with his wealth
He is indeed passionate about agriculture and research.
What impressed people most about Yuan Longping was his ongoing ability to fulfil his dreams. Long ago, he envisioned rice plants as tall as sorghum, with each ear of rice as big as a broom, and each grain of rice as huge as a peanut. He succeeded in producing a kind of rice that could feed more people at home and abroad. His latest vision for “seawater rice” also became a reality, and potentially opened up nearly one million square kilometres of salty land in China for rice production. Even in his later years, Yuan Longping was still young at heart and full of vision, and everyone was always excited to see what he would dream up next.

The Person I Admire Most
I am very glad to share my topic with you. The person I admire the most is Yuan Longping, an agricultural pioneer of China. It’s known that there exists hunger in many countries. To help more people to get enough food, Yuan Longping devoted himself to improving the output of hybrid rice. Thanks to his research, the output of hybrid has been doubled. More importantly, Yuan Longping was willing to share his achievement with others, which contributes to ridding the world of hunger.
As for me, Yuan Longping was the greatest person in the world. It is his devotion that made him successful and his commitment inspired me a lot. Actually, I have some difficulty in learning English. However, where there is devotion, there is a way. I really believe that my devotion can make me expert in English.
I sincerely hope that everyone can learn from the person you admire and thus make great contributions to the whole world.
Thank you for your listening. That’s all.
