2025-2026学年广西贵港初一(上)期末试卷英语

1、阅读下面短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

There was a time when farmers were hard-working but only got a little. As an old poem（诗）goes, 1. “Who knows the meal in the dish, each rice is full of hard work.” At this time, Father of Hybrid Rice（杂交水稻）, Yuan Longping, grew up.

After seeing many people die of hunger in the 1960s, Yuan started to challenge hybrid rice. He spent four years looking for a new kind of rice. In 1964, he found it! 2. 在1973年，他成功种植了世界上第一批杂交水稻。That’s why he is called “Father of Hybrid Rice”. But Chinese would like to call him Grandpa Yuan to show our love for him. Hybrid rice ended hunger for millions of people not only in China, but around the world. It is also grown in over 40 countries, including India, the US and Brazil. 3. 它已经成为现代中国最重要的发明之一。In fact, Grandpa Yuan is a normal person like you and me. For example, he liked to study English, geography and chemistry, but he wasn’t a fan of math. His hobbies included volleyball, swimming and violin. Yuan also loved to ride a motorcycle. 4. When he was in the face of difficulties, it was relaxing for him to ride it.

Grandpa Yuan once said he had two dreams. One was to enjoy the shade under rice crops and these crops were taller than men. The other was that people could grow hybrid rice all over the world. To our sadness, Grandpa Yuan passed away on May 22nd, at the age of 91. 5. But we Chinese people will remember him forever and try our best to make his dreams come true.
