1. 完成文本主要信息填空（斜體字部分設空）：As a witness to farmers’ poor harvests and even a severe shortage of food, Yuan Longping was determined to devote his life to tackling this crisis. After graduation, he realized that what farmers needed most was to boost yields in the fields. Yuan was convinced that the answer lay in the creation of hybrid rice, one characteristic of which is that it usually achieve higher output than conventional crops. However, it was no easy job. The first difficulty he needed to overcome was scientists’ general assumption that this could not be done. Through trial and error, Yuan managed to generate this incredible crop. It is estimated that about 60 percent of domestic rice consumption in China was comprised of crops generated from Yuan’s hybrid strains. His innovation has enabled Chinese farmers to considerably expand their output and helped feed the world. Unwilling to retire early to a life of leisure and unconcerned about celebrity or fortune, Yuan continues to turn one vision after another into realities.2. 模仿寫作：Do some research via the Internet and introduce another agricultural scientist, Chen Risheng（陳日勝）, using the structure, expressions and writing techniques you have learnt from the text “A Pioneer for All People”.【設計意圖】任務1是對文本內容和詞匯學習成效的檢測。任務2借助文本中學到的詞匯和寫作手法仿寫另一位科學家，提升學生遷移運用詞匯、文體結構和寫作方法的能力。
