here.‎ 如果你宁愿独自呆着，那我们都离开这儿。‎ ‎(2)would rather与than连用，可构成另一个惯用句式，即“would rather do...than do...”，意为“宁愿……(而)不愿……；与其……不如……”，用来表达主语的意愿，强调经过选择后做其中一件事，而不愿做另一件事。也可改写成“would do...rather than do...”，其用法及含义不变。‎

before.用他的杂交水稻种子，农民们种出的粮食比以前多了一倍。‎ 用法点拨 twice as large as是表示倍数的句型，意为“是……的多少倍”。“A＋be＋倍数＋as＋adj./adv.原级＋as B”表示A是B的几倍，倍数常用a quarter，half，twice，...times等。‎ This table is twice as big as that one.‎

尽管是中国最著名的科学家之一，袁隆平仍然认为自己是个农民，因为他在田间耕作，进行科学研究。的确，他那被太阳晒得黝黑的脸庞和手臂，以及他那瘦削而又结实的身躯，就跟其他千百万中国农民一样，过去50年来，他一直在努力帮助他们。袁隆平博士种植的是被称为“超级杂交水稻”的稻种。1974年，他成为世界上第一位种植高产水稻的农业先驱。这种特殊的稻种使得同样的田地多收获三分之一的产量成为可能。如今中国每年出产的稻米有60%以上出自这种杂交稻种。‎ 袁博士于1930年出生在一个贫穷的农民家庭，1953年毕业于西南农学院。从那时起，找到种植更多水稻的方法就成为他一生的目标。年轻时，他就看到了稻田增产的巨大需求。当时，饥荒是许多农村地区面临的一个令人不安的问题。袁博士要在不增加土地面积的基础上寻求达到增收稻米的途径。1950年，中国农民只能生产五千万吨稻米，而近来却生产了将近两亿吨稻米。这一粮食产量的增加意味着中国用仅仅占世界7%的耕地养活了世界22%的人口。袁博士现在在印度、越南和很多欠发达国家传播提高水稻产量的知识。由于他的研究，联合国在消除世界饥饿的战斗中有了更多的方法。用他的杂交水稻种子，农民们种出的粮食比以前多了一倍。‎ 袁博士对生活非常满足。但是，他对成名并不关心，并且觉得出名后搞科研就不那么自由了。他宁愿把时间花在自己的业余爱好上。他喜欢听小提琴乐曲、打麻将、游泳和读书。在自己身上花钱或者享受舒适的生活对袁博士来说意义也不大。事实上，他认为一个人有了太多钱，他的麻烦事只会更多，而不是更少。于是，他拿出好几百万元帮助其他人进行农业科学研究。‎ 然而，梦想是不花本钱的。很久以前，袁博士曾在梦里看到水稻长得像高粱一样高，稻穗跟玉米穗一样大，而每粒稻米像花生米一般大。袁博士从梦中醒来，希望能种植一种能养活更多人的水稻。许多年后的今天，袁博士还有另外一个梦想：他的稻谷可以出口并长遍全 球。一个梦想并不足够，尤其对一个热爱和关心人民的人来说更是如此。 ‎ ‎ ‎ Ⅰ.单词拼写 ‎1．He is sunburnt (晒黑的)from a day
