Who touched the hearts of Chinese people in the past year? Luo Yang, 51, the father of China’s carrier jet, who devoted his whole life to the aircraft industry, is no doubt one such person.
Luo was the head of production for the new J-15 fighter. On November 25, he was joining in fighter jet landing exercises for the Liaoning as usual. Shortly after the successful landing of the J-15, Luo experienced a sudden heart attack. He was soon sent to the hospital but the doctors couldn’t save his life.
Luo was given an award for his special contribution（贡献）to the country by China Central Television on February 19.
As general manager of the Shenyang Aircraft Corp, Luo didn’t use his power to improve the quality of his life. He gave up the chance to move into a new apartment. His suit was ten years old and his watch strap（带）was faded（褪色的）.All he focused on was the aircraft industry.
Luo seldom had the time for a good chat with his wife and daughter. He always started work at 6 am and returned home around midnight when they were sleeping.
When devoted to his work, Luo always forgot about everything else. His final days were all spent on the J-15. At one point, he felt unwell, but he didn’t leave the carrier or see a doctor.
“I spent eight days on the carrier with Luo. He worked all day and night under huge pressure,” recalled Meng Jun, one of his colleagues（同事）.
Luo’s death is a big loss to the country. His example, however, has inspired many people. “It’s a pity Luo Yang died when the aircraft carrier achieved success. It’s good to see more young people are entering this career now,” said Yang Yu, a commentator（评论员）for China Central Television.What was Luo Yang famous for?
| A．He and his team invented the high speed train. |
| B．He and his team produced the new J-15 fighter successfully. |
| C．He and his team bought the latest carrier fighter（舰载机）. |
| D．He and his team invented a new type of mobile phone. |

| B．one of the most successful pilots in the world |
| C．one of the most popular managers in 2013 |
| D．one of the most creative scientists in 2013 |
