     Joe was the best potato farmer in the state of Idaho, maybe the best in the whole world. He took pride in
his work and did the best he could to grow the best and healthiest potatoes.
     At harvest time, Joe would spend his time making sure that his potatoes were ploughed out of the ground
in a proper way so that they wouldn't get damaged (损害). Joe was looking forward to a great potato crop.
     Joe and his workers had a great potato crop but they couldn't finish the harvest yet. There was a big piece
of land that was so hard that the plough (犁) was not able to dig it up. So Joe decided to leave it till the next
day.
     The next day Joe went to dig his shovel (铁锨) into the land. He discovered that it was one big potato. He
thought this must be the biggest potato in the world. But how could he get it out? This potato was bigger than

and asked them for their help. He called the Guinness World Records (吉尼斯世界纪录), to introduce the
