被誉为“杂交水稻之父”的袁隆平是中国最著名的科学家之一。然而，他把自己看作是一位农民，因为在研究过程中他不断耕耘土地。确实，他瘦削但结实的身躯，与其为之奉献毕生的千千万万的中国农民无异。

袁隆平1930年出生于北京。他的父母希望他从事科学或医学职业，然而，他最关心的是农民经常粮食歉收，有时甚至出现严重的食物短缺。为了应对这一危机，他选择学习农业，在位于重庆的西南农学院接受教育。弥漫意思

science or medicine. However, what concerned him most was that farmers often had poor harvests and sometimes even had a rious shortage of food to eat. To tackle this crisis, he cho to study agriculture and received an education at Southwest Agricultural College in Chongqing.
1953年大学毕业后，他成为了一名科研人员。袁隆平意识到，解决问题的办法并不是扩大农田面积，而是农民们需要提高他们已有土地上农作物的产量。如何实现这一目标成为当时一个颇具挑战性的问题。袁隆平确信答案可以在杂交水稻的培育中找到。杂交指的是两个或者两个以上品种的交叉。杂交作物的一个特点就是它们通常能获得比传统作物更高的产量。
After graduating in 1953, he worked as a rearcher. Yuan Longping realid that larger fields were not the solution. Instead, farmers needed to boost yields in the fields they had. How this could be done was a challenging question at the time. Yuan was convinced that the answer could be found in the creation of hybrid rice. A hybrid is across between two or more varieties of a species. One characteristic of hybrids is that they usually attain a higher yield than conventional crops.
然而，是否可能开发出水稻等自花授粉作物的杂交品种，仍众说纷纭。当时普遍认为这是不可能实现的。历经千辛万苦，袁隆平攻克了艰巨的技术难题，研发出了可用于耕作的第一代杂交水稻，并于1974年开始耕种。这种杂交水稻极大地提高了农民的产量。
However, whether it was possible to develop a hybrid of lf-pollinating plants such as rice was a matter of great debate. The common assumption then was that it could not be done. Through inten effort, Yuan overcame enormous technical difficulties to develop the first hybrid rice that could be ud for farming in 1974. This hybrid enabled farmers to expand their output greatly.
