It says every scientist cherishes a childhood dream indicating his or her future success. But for Yuan Longping,dubbed (外號;) as " father of hybrid rice”,the dream is that he cultivates rice as plump as peanuts,1 Yuan won a 5 million yuan State Supreme Science and Technology Award today,known as the Nobel Prize in China,for his outstanding achievements in breeding highyield hybrid rice,2 Yuan came up with the idea of hybridizing rice for the first time in the world in 1960s. Since then,50 percent of China's total rice cultivation fields have grown such rice,3 .
Wrinkles grown on his sunburnt face,a slim figure and coiledup (向上卷的) trousers legs would confuse foreign reporters who came to interview the most famous scientist in China,who would rather be called "a farmer".

By lending his name to the Longping Hightech,a seed company,Yuan obtained a 5 percent stake,or 2. 5 million shares worth 2 million yuan,in the firm.
However,Yuan said his research requires the lifestyle of a farmer,or rather a migrating farmer,as he has conducted extensive research related to the cultivation of new strains of hybrid rice " Super Hybrid Rice" in some 10 provinces.
The "Super Rice" yields are 30 percent higher than those of common rice. The record yield of 17,055 kilograms per hectare was registered in Yongsheng County in Yunnan in 1999.

Email has brought the art of letter writing back to life,but some experts think the resulting spread of bad English does more harm than good.
Email is a form of communication that is changing,for the worse,the way we write and use language,say some communication researchers. 1 These are a few of the recently recognized features of email,say experts,which should cause individual and organizations to rethink the way they use email.
Naomi Baron,a professor of linguistics at American University says , " 2 " She also says the poor spelling,grammar,punctuation and sentence structure of emails reflect a growing unconcern to the way we write.
Baron argues that we shouldn't forgive and forget the poor writing often shown in emails. The professor says , " 3 ”
Others say that despite its poor prose (文字) ,email has finished what several generations of English teachers couldn't: It has made writing fashionable again.
"4 " says Lancashire,a University of Toronto professor of English. "It fills the gap between spoken language and the formal methods of writing that existed before email. It is the purest form of written speech."
Lancashire says email has the mysterious ability to get people who are usually scared by writing to get their thoughts flowing easily onto a blank screen. He says this is because of email's close similarity to speech. "It's like a circle of four or five people around a campfire, " he says.
Still,he accepts that this newfound freedom to express themselves often gets people into trouble. "Almost every day I get emails that are apologies of previous emails,”he reports. In the US,the number of emails sent in a day exceeds the number of letters mailed in a year. 5
A. Email has increased the spread of careless writing habits.
B. But more people are recognizing the content of a typical email message is not often exact.
C. Email is often used to send messages,pictures to their beloved ones.
D. It is also changing the way we interact and build relationship.
E. The more we use email and its tasteless writing,the more it becomes the normal way of writing.
F. Email will replace letters in the near future.
G. Email is a critical new communication technology.
