17、 strain.for whom he has struggled为“介词关系代词”引导的定语从句,相当于whom he has struggled for。what is called super hybrid rice是what引导的宾语从句,what在从句中作主语。动词不定式to grow rice作后置定语,修饰the first agricultural pioneer。当名词前有序数词或形容词最高级修饰时,用动词不定式作定语。that引导定语从句,修饰先行词rice,且that在从句中作主语,不能省略。本句中it是形式宾语,真正的宾语是to produce 20% more of
