W: Hi, Mr. White. Can I speak to you for a few minutes?
M: of course, go ahead.
W: The entrance exam is coming. I've some questions about what to study in the future.
M: What do you like?
W: I'm interested in literature, especially world literature. But my parents want me to study physics. They said physics was more useful than literature. What's more, it would be easier for me to find a job after graduation.
M: It's too early to think of finding jobs now. And physics and literature are both sciences, although quite different. Literature is as useful as physics. There re many outstanding scientists. There're also many great writers. You can't tell who are more important. All of them have made great contributions to their countries and to the whole world and mankind as well.
W: Yes. How nice it would be if only my parents could see things this way!
