CHANGING MANNERS

Many Americans believe that manners have gotten worse and official figures confirm this In a recent survey, nearly 70%said that people are (3) than they were 20 or 30 years ago This is true of both large and small towns, although 74% of (4) living in cities said that people have become ruder, compared with 67% in rural areas However, few people believethat they have bad manners themselves! For example, only 8% in the questionnaire (5) they have ever used their cellphones in public in a loud or annoying way Many people (6) new technology for our changing manners Computers,MP3 players, and cell phones take us away from face-to-face contact, as well as being very annoying in public places "All

of these things result in a world with more stress, more chances for people to be rude to each other," said Peter Post, aninstructor on business manners

But what can we do about it? Some people would like to see a rail car (7) for cell phone users so that the rest of us cantravel in peace and quiet In fact, one train company, Amtrak, has banned cell phones in one car of some trains, which iscalled a "Quiet Car"

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 08 to 14.

COMEDIANS

What drives moderately intelligent persons to put themselves up for acceptance or disparagement? In short, what sort ofindividual wants to be a comedian? When we hear the very word, what does the label suggest? Other professions, callingsand occupations attract separate and distinct types of practitioner Some stereotypes are so familiar as to be cheaplylaughable examples from the world of travesty, among them absent-minded professors, venal lawyers, gloomy detectives andcynical reporters But what corny characteristics do we attribute to comedians? To a man or woman, are they generallyparsimonious, vulgar, shallow, arrogant, introspective, hysterically insecure, smug, autocratic, amoral, and selfish? Readtheir superficial stories in the tabloids and so they would appear

Rather than look at the complete image, perhaps we need to explore the initial motives behind a choice of career Considerfirst those who prefer a sort of anonymity in life, the ones who’d rather wear a uniform The psychological make-up ofindividuals who actively seek to resign their individuality is apparent among those who surrender to the discipline of amilitary life The emotional and intellectual course taken by those who are drawn to anonymity is easily observed but noteasily deflected They want to be told what to do and then be required to do it over and over again in the safety of a routine,often behind the disguises of a number of livery If their egos ache with the need for recognition and praise, it’s a pain thatmust be contained, frustrated or satisfied within the rut they occupy The mere idea of standing up in front of an audienceand demanding attention is abhorrent

Nor will we find our comics among the doormats and dormice, the meek There’s precious little comedy in the lives ofquiet hobbyists, bashful scholars, hermits, anchorites and recluses, the discreet and the modest, ones who deliberately select

a position of obscurity and seclusion Abiding quietly in this stratum of society, somewhere well below public attentionlevel, there is humour, yes, since humour can endure in the least favourable circumstances, persisting like lichen inAntarctica And jokes Many lesserknown comedy writers compose their material in the secret corners of an unassumingexistence I know of two, both content to be minor figures in the civil service, who send in topical jokes to radio and TVshows on condition that their real names are not revealed

In both cases I've noticed that their comic invention, though clever, is based upon wordplay, puns and similar equivoques,never an aggressive comic observation of life Just as there may be a certain sterility in the self-effacement of a humble life,

so it seems feasible that the selection process of what’s funny is emasculated before it even commences If you have no

ginger and snap in your daily round, with little familiarity with strong emotions, it seems likely that your sense of fun will belimited by timidity to a simple juggling with language

Trang 2

If the comedian’s genesis is unlikely to be founded in social submission, it’s also improbable among the top echelons ofour civilisation Once again, humour can be found among the majestic Nobles and royals, statesmen and lawmakers, havetheir wits Jokes and jokers circulate at the loftiest level of every advanced nation, but being high-born seems to carry no

compulsion to make the hoi polloi laugh Some of our rulers do make us laugh but that’s not what they’re paid to do And,

so with the constricted comedy of those who live a constricted life, that which amuses them may lack the common touch Having eliminated the parts of society unlikely to breed funnymen, it’s to the middle ranks of humanity, beneath theexalted and above the invisible, that we must look to see where comics come from and why And are they, like nurses andnuns, called to their vocation? As the mountain calls to the mountaineer and the pentameter to the poet, does the need of themirthless masses summon forth funsters, ready to administer relief as their sole raison d’etre? We’ve often heard it said thatsomeone’s a ‘born comedian’ but will it do for all of them or even most of them? Perhaps we like to think of our greatestjesters as we do our greatest painters and composers, preferring to believe that their gifts are inescapably driven toexpression But in our exploration of the comedy mind, hopefully finding some such, we are sure to find some quiteotherwise

SO MUCH TO SAVE

The idea of preserving biological diversity gives most people a warm feeling inside But what, exactly, is diversity? Andwhich kind is most worth preserving? It may be anathema to save-the-lot environmentalists who hate setting such priorities,but academics are starting to cook up answers

Andrew Solow, a mathematician at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, and his colleagues argue that in the eyes ofconservation, all species should not be equal Even more controversially, they suggest that preserving the rarest is not alwaysthe best approach Their measure of diversity is the amount of evolutionary distance between species They reckon that ifchoices must be made, then the number of times that cousins are removed from one another should be one of the criteria This makes sense from both.a practical and an aesthetic point of view Close relatives have many genes in common Ifthose genes might be medically or agriculturally valuable, saving one is nearly as good as saving both And different formsare more interesting to admire and study than lots of things that look the same Dr Solow's group illustrates its thesis with anexample Six species of crane are at some risk of extinction Breeding in captivity might save them But suppose there wereonly enough money to protect three Which ones should be picked?

The genetic distances between 14 species of cranes, including the six at risk, have already been established using

a technique known as DNA hybridisation The group estimated how likely it was that each of these 14 species would becomeextinct in the next 50 years Unendangered species were assigned a 10% chance of meeting the Darwinian reaper-man; themost vulnerable, a 90% chance Captive breeding was assumed to reduce an otherwise endangered species' risk to the 10%level of the safest Dr Solow's computer permed all possible combinations of three from six and came to the conclusion thatprotecting the Siberian, white-naped and black-necked cranes gave the smallest likely loss of biological diversity over thenext five decades The other three had close relatives in little need of protection Even if they became extinct, most of theirgenes would be saved

Building on the work of this group, Martin Weitzman, of Harvard University, argues that conservation policy needs to takeaccount not only of some firm measure of the genetic relationships of species to each other and their likelihood of survival,but also the costs of preserving them Where species are equally important in genetic terms, and - an important andimprobable precondition - where the protection of one species can be assuted at the expense of another, he argues for makingsafe species safer, rather than endangered species less endangered

In practice, it is difficult to choose between species Most of those at risk - especially plants, the group most likely to yielduseful medicines - are under threat because their habitats are in trouble, not because they are being shot, or plucked, toextinction Nor can conservationists choose among the millions of species that theory predicts must exist, but that have notyet been classified by the biologists assigned to that tedious task

This is not necessarily cause for despair At the moment, the usual way to save the genes in these creatures is to find thebits of the world with the largest number of species and try to protect them from the bulldozers What economists requirefrom biologists are more sophisticated ways to estimate the diversity of groups of organisms that happen to live together, aswell as those which are related to each other With clearer goals established, economic theory can then tell environmentalistswhere to go [from The Economist]
