Li Denghai, with his muddy boots and tanned(晒黑的) face, may not look like he is one of China’s famous agricultural pioneers. But the 61-year-old man from Shandong Province has made scientific breakthroughs(突破), which made great contributions to China’s food security(安全). His main work has been in achieving the higher output of corn production.
Li, who holds the world record for the highest output of summer corn, once says, “Corn has a life; it sings and dances. If you listen clearly, it can speak to you.” He started his research in 1969 when he was 20 and just dropped out of a high school. He then read an article which pointed that corn output per mu in the USA was six times higher than that in China. He was shocked and set out to work on just a small piece of land round the clock to see if he could increase the output. He often went to the field with a flashlight late at night, if he had been away during the day. By careful nurturing (照料) he managed to double the output.
Li Denghai was awarded the “China Award for Significant Contribution to the Maize (玉米) Industry” in 2005, and the same year the company named after his own name came into the market on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Li, however, is never happier than when he is in the middle of his cornfields. “I can forget my tiredness when talking to my corns,” he says.

(答案→)B 解析：本文介绍了对中国食品安全作出巨大贡献的玉米专家Li Denghai情况。【小题1】B 细节题。根据第二段3，4,5段He then read an article which pointed that corn output per mu in the USA was six times higher than that in China. He was shocked and set out to work on just a small piece of land round the clock to see if he could increase the output.可知他很震惊中国的玉米产量如此之低。故B正确。【小题2】A 推理题。根据下一句He often went to the field with a flashlight late at night, if he had been away during the day. By careful nurturing (照料) he managed to double the output.可知他经常半夜起来看玉米的生长情况，说明该词是指day and night。故A正确。【小题3】.D 推理题。根据文章最后2行Li, however, is never happier than when he is in the middle of his cornfields. “I can forget my tiredness when talking to my corns,” he says.可知他对于自己所从事的种植玉米的事业非常热爱。故D正确。
