In the public interest

The Scandinavian countries are much admired all over the world for their enlightened social policies. Sweden has evolved an excellent system for protecting the indivial citizen from high-handed or incompetent public officers. The system has worked so well, that it has been adopted in other countries like Denmark, Norway, Finland, and New Zealand. Even countries with large populations like Britain and the United States are seriously considering imitating the Swedes.

The Swedes were the first to recognize that public officials like civil servants, collectors can make mistakes or act over-zealously in the belief that they are serving the public. As long ago as 1809, the Swedish Parliament introced a scheme to safeguard the interest of the indivial. A parliamentary committee representing all political parties appoints a person who is suitably qualified to investigate private grievances against the State. The official title of the person is 'Justiteombudsman', but the Swedes commonly refer to him as the 'J.O.' or 'Ombudsman'. The Ombudsman is not subject to political pressure. He investigates complaints large and small that come to him from all levels of society. As complaints must be made in writing, the Ombudsman receives an average of 1200 letters a year. He has eight lawyer assistants to help him and he examines every single letter in detail. There is nothing secretive about the Ombudsman's work, for his correspondence is open to public inspection. If a citizen's complaint is justified, the Ombudsman will act on his behalf. The action he takes varies according to the nature of the complaint. He may gently reprimand an official or even suggest to parliament that a law be altered. The following case is a typical example of the Ombudsman's work.

A foreigner living in a Swedish village wrote to the Ombudsman complaining that he had been ill-treated by the police, simply because he was a foreigner. The Ombudsman immediately wrote to the Chief of Police in the district asking him to send a record of the case. There was nothing in the record to show that the foreigner's complaint was justified and the Chief of Police stoutly denied the accusation. It was impossible for the Ombudsman to take action, but when he received a similar complaint from another foreigner in the same village, he immediately sent one of his lawyers to investigate the matter. The lawyer ascertained that a policeman had indeed dealt roughly with foreigners on several occasions. The fact that the policeman was prejudiced against foreigners could not be recorded in he official files. It was only possible for the Ombudsman to

find this out by sending one of his representatives to check the facts. The policeman in question was severely reprimanded and was informed that if any further complaints were lodged against him, he would be prosecuted. The Ombudsman's prompt action at once put an end to an unpleasant practice which might have gone unnoticed.

斯堪的納維亞半島各國實行開明的社會政策，受到全世界的推崇。在瑞典，已逐漸形成了一種完善的制度以保護每個公民不受專橫的和不稱職的政府官員的欺壓。由於這種制度行之有效，已被其他國家採納。

是瑞典人首先認識到政府工作人員如文職人員、警官、衛生稽查員、稅務人員等等也會犯錯誤或者自以為在為公眾服務而把事情做過了頭。早在1809年，瑞典論會就建立一個保護公民利益的制度。議會內有一個代表各政黨利益的委員會，由它委派一位稱職的人選專門調查個人對國家的意見。此人官銜為“司法特派員”，但瑞典人一般管他叫“J.O.”，即“司法特派員”。司法特派員不受任何政治壓力的制約。他聽取社會各階層的各種大小意見，並進行調查。由於意見均需用書面形式提出，司法特派員每年平均收到1,200封信。他有8位律師作他的助手協助工作，每封信都詳細批閱。司法特派員的工作沒有什麼秘密可言，他的信件是公開的，供公眾監督。如果公民的意見正確，司法特派員便為他伸張正義。司法特員採取的行動因意見的性質不同而有所不同。他可以善意地批評某位官員，也可以甚至向議會提議修改某項法律。下述事件是司法特派員工作的一個典型例子。

一個住在瑞典鄉村的外國人寫信給司法特派員，抱怨說他受到警察的虐待，原因就是因為他是個外國人。司法特派員立即寫信給當地警察局長，請他寄送與此事有關的材料。材料中沒有任何文字記載證明外國人所說的情況符合事實，警察局長矢口否認這一指控。司法特派員難以處理。但是，當他又收到住在同一村莊的另一個外國人寫的一封內容類似的投訴信時，他立即派出一位律師前去調查。律師證實有個警察確實多次粗魯地對待外國人。警察歧視外國人的事在官方檔案中不可能加以記載，司法特派員只有派他的代表去核對事實才能了解真相。當事的警察受到嚴厲的斥責，並被告知，如果再有人投訴他，他將受到起訴。司法特派員及時採取的行動，迅速制止了這一起不愉快的事件，不然這件事可能因未得到人們注意而不了了之。

Instinct or cleverness?

We have been brought up to fear insects. We regard them as unnecessary creatures that do more harm than good. Man continually wages war on item, for they contaminate his food, carry diseases, or devour his crops. They sting or bite without provocation; they fly uninvited into our rooms on summer nights, or beat against our lighted windows. We live in dread not only of unpleasant insects like spiders or wasps, but of quite harmless ones like moths. Reading about them increases our understanding with out dispelling our fears. Knowing that the instrious ant lives in a highly

organized society does nothing to prevent us from being filled with revulsion when we find hordes of them crawling over a carefully prepared picnic lunch. No matter how much we like honey, or how much we have read about the uncanny sense of direction which bees possess, we have a horror of being stung. Most of our fears are unreasonable, but they are impossible to erase. At the same time, however, insects are strangely fascinaing. We enjoy reading about them, especially when we find that, like the praying mantis, they lead perfectly horrible lives. We enjoy staring at them entranced as they go about their business, unaware (we hope) of our presence. Who has not stood in awe at the sight of a spider pouncing on a fly, or a column of ants triumphantly bearing home an enormous dead beetle ?

Last summer I spent days in the garden watching thousands of ants crawling up the trunk of my prize peach tree. The tree has grown against a warm wall on a sheltered side of the house. I am especially proud of it, not only because it has survived several severe winters, but because it occasionally proces luscious peaches. During the summer, I noticed that the leaves of the tree were beginning to wither. Clusters of tiny insects called aphides were to be found on the underside of the leaves. They were visited by a laop colony of ants which obtained a sort of honey from them. I immediately embarked on an experiment which, even though it failed to get rid of the ants, kept me fascinated for twenty-four hours. I bound the base of the tree with sticky tape , making it impossible for the ants to reach the aphides. The tape was so sticky that they did not dare to cross it. For a long time, I watched them scurrying around the base of the tree in bewilderment. I even went out at midnight with a torch and noted with satisfaction (and surprise) that the ants were still swarming around the sticky tape without being able to do anything about it. I got up early next morning hoping to find that the ants had given up in despair. Instead, I saw that they had discovered a new route. They were climbing up the wall of the house and then on to the leaves of

the tree. I realized sadly that I had been completely defeated by their ingenuity. The ants had been quick to find an answer to my thoroughly unscientific methods!

我們自幼就在對昆蟲的懼怕中長大。我們把昆蟲當作害多益少的無用東西。人類不斷同昆蟲斗爭，因為昆蟲弄臟我們的食物，傳播疾病，吞噬莊稼。它們無緣無故地又叮又咬;夏天的晚上，它們未經邀請便飛到我們房間里，或者對著露出亮光的窗戶亂撲亂撞。我們在日常生活中，不但憎惡如蜘蛛、黃蜂之類令人討厭的昆蟲，而且憎惡並無大害的飛蛾等。閱讀有關昆蟲的書能增加我們對它們的了解，卻不能消除我們的恐懼的心理。即使知道勤奮的螞蟻生活具有高度組織性的社會里，當看到大群螞蟻在我們精心准備的午間野餐上爬行時，我們也無法抑制對它們的反感。不管我們多麼愛吃蜂蜜，或讀過多少關於蜜蜂具有神秘的識別方向的靈感的書，我們仍然十分害怕被蜂蜇。我們的恐懼大部分是沒有道理的，但去無法消除。同時，不知為什麼昆蟲又是迷人的。我們喜歡看有關昆蟲的書，尤其是當我們了解螳螂等過著一種令人生畏的生活時，就更加愛讀有關昆蟲的書了。我們喜歡入迷地看它們做事，它們不知道(但願如此)我們就在它們身邊。當看到蜘蛛撲向一隻蒼蠅時，一隊螞蟻抬著一隻巨大的死甲蟲凱旋歸時，誰能不感到敬畏呢?

去年夏天，我花了好幾天時間站在花園里觀察成千隻螞蟻爬上我那棵心愛的桃樹的樹干。那棵樹是靠著房子有遮擋的一面暖牆生長的。我為這棵樹感到特別自豪，不僅因為它度過了幾個寒冬終於活了下來，而且還因為它有時結出些甘甜的桃子來。到了夏天，我發現樹葉開始枯萎，結果在樹葉背面找到成串的叫作蚜蟲小蟲子。蚜蟲遭到一窩螞蟻的攻擊，螞蟻從它們身上可以獲得一種蜜。我當即動手作了一項試驗，這項試驗盡管沒有使我擺脫這些螞蟻，卻使我著迷了24小時。我用一條膠帶把桃樹底部包上，不讓螞蟻接近蚜蟲。膠帶極粘，螞蟻不敢從上面爬過。在很長一段時間里，我看見螞蟻圍著大樹底部來回轉悠，不知所措。半夜，我還拿著電筒來到花園里，滿意地(同時驚奇地)發現那些螞蟻還圍著膠帶團團轉。無能為力。第二天早上，我起床後希望看見螞蟻已因無望而放棄了嘗試，結果卻發現它們又找到一條新的路徑。它們正在順著房子的外牆往上爬，然後爬上樹葉。我懊喪地感到敗在了足智多謀的螞蟻的手下。螞蟻已很快找到了相應的對策，來對付我那套完全不科學的辦法!

From the earth: greatings

Radio astronomy has greatly increased our understanding of the universe. Radio telescopes have one big advantage over conventional telescopes in that they can operate in all weather conditions and can pick up signals coming from very distant stars. These signals are proced by colliding stars or nuclear reactions in outer space. The most powerful signals that have been received have been emitted by what seem to be truly colossal stars which scientists have named 'quasars'.

A better understanding of these phenomena may completely alter our conception of the nature of the universe. The radio telescope at Jodrell Bank in England was for many years the largest in the world. A new telescope, over twice the size, was recently built at Sugar Grove in West Virginia. Astronomers no longer regard as fanciful the idea that they may one day pick up signals which have been sent by intelligent beings on other worlds. This possibility gives rise to interesting speculations. Highly advanced civilizations may have existed on other planets long before intelligent forms of life evolved on the earth. Conversely, intelligent being which are just beginning to develop on remote worlds may be ready to pick up our signals in thousands of years' time, or when life on earth has become extinct. Such speculations no longer belong to the realm of science fiction, for astronomers are now exploring the chances of communicating with living creatures (if they exist) on distant planets. This undertaking which has been named Project Ozma was begun in 1960, but it may take a great many years before results are obtained.

Aware of the fact that it would be impossible to wait thousands or millions of years to receive an answer from a distant planet, scientists engaged in Project Ozma are concentrating their attention on stars which are relatively close. One of the most likely stars is Tau Ceti which is eleven light years away. If signals from the earth were received by intelligent creatures on a planet circling this

star, we would have to wait twenty-two years for an answer. The Green Bank telescope in West Virginia has been specially designed to distinguish between random signals and signals which might be in code. Even if contact were eventually established, astronomers would not be able to rely on language to communicate with other beings. They would use mathematics as this is the

only truly universal language. Numbers have the same value anywhere. For this reason, intelligent creatures in any part of the universe would be able to understand a simple arithmetical sequence. They would be able to reply to our signals using similar methods. The next step would be to try to develop means for sending television pictures. A single picture would tell us more than thousands of words. In an age when anything seems to be possible, it would be narrow-minded in the extreme to ridicule these attempts to find out if there is life in other parts of the universe.

天文學方面最新發展使得我們能夠在銀河系和其他星系發現行星。這是一個重要的成就，因為相對來說，行星很小，而且也不發光。尋找行星證明相當困難，但是要在行星上發現生命會變得無比艱難。第一個需要解答的問題是一顆行星是否有能夠維持生命的條件。舉例來說，在我們的太陽系裡，對於生命來說，金星的溫度太高，而火星的溫度則太低。只有地球提供理想的條件，而即使在這里，植物和動物的進化也用了40億年的時間。

一顆行星是否能夠維持生命取決於它的恆星——即它的“太陽”——的大小和亮度。設想一下，一顆恆星比我們的太陽還要大，還要亮，還要熱20倍，那麼一顆行星為了維持生命就要離開的它的恆星非常遠。反之，如果恆星很小，維持生命的行星就要在離恆星很近的軌道上運行，而且要有極好的條件才能使生命得以發展，但是，我們如何才能找到這樣一顆行星呢?現在，沒有一台現存的望遠鏡可以發現生命的存在。而開發這樣一台望遠鏡將會是21世紀天文學的一個重要的研究課題。

使用放置在地球上的望遠鏡是無法觀察到其他行星的生命的。地球周圍溫暖的大氣層和望遠鏡散出的熱量使得我們根本不可能找到比行星更小的物體。即使是一台放置在圍繞地球的軌道上的望遠鏡——如非常成功的哈勃望遠鏡——也因為太陽系中的塵埃微粒而無法勝任。望遠鏡要放置在木星那樣遙遠的行星上才有可能在外層空間搜尋生命。因為我們越是接近太陽系的邊緣，塵埃就越稀薄。一旦我們找到這樣一顆行星，我們就要想辦法將它的恆星射過來的光線遮暗，這樣我們就能徹底“看見”這顆行星，並分析它的大氣層。首先我們要尋找植物，而不是那種“小綠人”。行星上最容易生存下來的是細菌。正是細菌生產出我們在地球上呼吸的氧氣。在地球上發展的大部分進程中，細菌是地球上唯一的生命形式。作為地球上的居民，我們總存有這樣的希望：小綠人來 拜訪 我們，而我們可以和他們交流。但是，這種希望總是只在科幻小說中存在。如果我們能夠在另一顆行星上找到諸如細菌的那種低等生命，那麼這個發現將徹底改變我們對我們自己的看法。正如美國國家航空和宇宙航空局的丹尼爾.戈爾丁指出的“在其他地方發現生命會改變一切。任何人類的努力和想法都會發生變化。”

一見鍾情的火星,非常歡迎並沒有出現任何類型的生活。它有少量的氧和水,夜間溫度低於- 50和大風100英里每小時引起嚴重的沙塵暴。然而,這一行星的表面似乎顯示,水水流過它,在過去某個時間,認為有足夠兩極冰覆蓋行星的水,如果它溶化,盡管在火星上沒有生命像現在一樣,一些科學家認為也許曾經有過某種形式的生命已經是很久以前的事了在那個時候,火星上有活火山,氣氛更厚和溫暖,在那裡水。事實上,在某些方面火星可能是類似於地球,在地球上的生命力所在。
有些人相信火星能維持生命的將來如果合適的條件了。第一步是使大氣變暖使用某些氣體吸收太陽的熱能,在這顆行星的大氣層。與溫馨,水和二氧化碳,簡單的植物可以開始生長。這些植物可以慢慢使火星更適合人類居住,據估計,整個過程可能費時10萬到20年。與此同時,人們開始能夠在這個星球上生活環境特殊關閉他們會提供很多的用處信息火星上條件和存在的問題與住在那裡。
