A young college student thought that he chose the wrong major at a common college so he drank every day and didn't study at all. He became more and more frustrated. But he was never absent from Professor Yang's biology class. He liked the course. Besides,Yang's class was so interesting that he always listened carefully, never caring about whether the other students were paying attention or not in class. Once he put a note in the homework he handed in,saying:"Professor, it is said that today's college students are cheaper than potatoes. Do you agree?"

That day Professor Yang sent for him after class. When he came,he found the professor at a table with a plate of food. They drank happily with their meal. When they became half drunk, the professor produced a small potato that was sprouting. "Do you know how much this costs?" he asked the young man. "It's soft but poisonous. Nobody will take it even if it's free." He then threw the potato away. The professor then showed him another potato. It was half the size of a football and perfectly round. "This potato is organic. It is not only large and fresh but also free of pollution. It is in high demand and quite expensive. " The young man was impressed by what he'd heard. " Be such a potato,"said the professor.
