Traditional superstitions and beliefs   16   disappear altogether; they assume new forms and   17 to contemporary conditions.   18   in the 21st century people may dismiss their forefather's customs and practices as superstition, many are still current. A Friday which falls on the 13th of a month is widely feared as   19   , and so are spilling and walking under a ladder. Belief   20   the power of mascots is far from   21   ; the lucky rabbit's foot, like the horseshoe, is a popular charm. Certain foods, too,   22   their ancient lore. Many people, for example, accept the old adage "an apple a day keeps the doctor away". One aspect of traditional   23   which is still very much   24   today is folk medicine. When the causes of illness were totally   25   , and disease seemed to strike without any reason, it was often   26   to evil spirits taking over the body. To   27   the patient, the demons of disease must be driven out, and many "cures" were spells and charms intended to exorcise these usurpers. Until   28   modern times even “official” medicine was very unpleasant, with no anaesthetics or pain-killers, and a low success rate. Few people,   29   , could afford it, and most relied on folk healers and magic. There was an enormous range of herbal cures, some of which have since been found to have actual healing properties. Charms were worn to ward off disease; and a wide   30   of seemingly strange objects, such as church furnishings, were credited with powers of healing.  JJC Y M

Whatever may be said against mass circulation magazines and newspapers, it can hardly be argued that they are out of touch with their readers' daydreams, and therefore the inducements they hold out to them must be a near. accurate reflection of their unfulfilled wants and aspirations. Study these and you will assuredly understand a good deal of what it is that makes society tick. }OpUG  
STp9Gh-  
Looking back, for example, to the twenties and thirties, we can see that circulation managers unerringly diagnosed the twin obsessions which dominated that era of mass unemployment -- economic insecurity and a passionate concern for the next generation. Thus it was that readers were recruited with offers of free insurance policies for the one, and free instant education for the other. The family whose breadwinner lost an eye in a double railway derailment, or an arm in a flood, could confidently expect to collect several hundred pounds from the Daily This or the Evening That. The family who could not afford to send their son to grammar school could find consolation in equipping him with the complete works of Shakespeare in one magnificent, easy to read volume. #h5lz%2g

After the war the need to fall into step with the new consumer society was soon realized. If you were flanked by neighbors who, unlike you, could afford a holiday abroad, then winning an easy competition could set you up with a fortnight in an exotic sunspot. Dishwashers, washing machines, slow-cookers and deep-fat-friers were - and still are- available by the same means. 1f`De`zXzr

Thirty years ago the Today program was unpredictable to the point of chaos with presenter Jack da Manio improvising and thinking aloud, always eager for a joke or a prank. Through the studio trooped a procession of English eccentrics ---- a man who ate light bulbs, another who ate spiders, a chap who was touring the country leapfrogging all the pillar boxes, a hard-headed individual who could play Rule Britannia by hitting himself on the head with a nine-inch spanner ---- and many others. Talking dogs and singing cats were almost common place. 1!zd#TX  
/K2[`+-  
By the mid-70s, however, Today had got to the point where, for example, it had on one morning Libby Purves making the first "live" radio broadcast from China, someone else in Dublin covering the pope's visit, another presenter in Margate where the Liberals were conferring, and an anchorman in London. ~JRq :  
%Ja0:e  
When you have reached this stage, there is no room for talking dogs, and humor and whims have to be confined to odd corners. K7s[Fa6J  
vAP1PQX;  
Despite its more serious approach, however, Today has somehow retained its character and its tone of voice. And being a live, high-risk program, it can still go horribly wrong. Only recently an eminent doctor launched into a lengthy on-air harangue against the production team and refused to listen to the questions he was supposed to be answering. Such things can always happen ---- and so can studio rows, sometimes even involving the presenters. There was a memorable spat not long ago when a rattled Nigel Lawson accused Redhead of being a well-known supporter of the Labor party. {JdXn  
26}3  
But rows or no rows. Today is where the ministers and would-be ministers want to be heard. As Brian Redhead is fond of saying: "If you want to plant a word in the nation's ear, come on Today." His other favorite remark is: "We set the agenda for the day." Both statements are true of a program with a steady weekly audience of 6 million ---- easily the largest on Radio 4. $mT)<N ;w

One of the good things for men in women’s liberation is that men no longer have to pay women the old-fashioned courtesies. G9am}qr  
A n`*![  
In an article on the new manners, Mrs. Holmes says that a perfectly able woman no longer has to act helplessly in public as if she were a model. For example, she doesn’t need help getting in and out of cars. “Women get in and out cars twenty times a day with babies and dogs. Surely they can get out by themselves at night just as easily.” |N)),/R_  
ux!YVvTPd  
She also says there is no reason why a man should walk on the outside of a woman on the sidewalk. “Historically, the man walked on the inside so he caught the garbage thrown out of a window. Today a man is supposed to walk on the outside. A man should walk where he wants to. So should a woman. If, out of love and respect, he actually wants to take the blows, he should walk on the inside--because that’s where attackers are all hiding these days.” ~b X~_\  
."O%pL]!/b  
As far as manners are concerned, I suppose I have always been a supporter of women’s liberation. Over the years, out of a sense of respect, I imagine, I have refused to trouble women with outdated courtesies. D:IG;Rsc  
3HuGb^SNg  
It is usually easier to follow rules of social behaviour than to depend on one’s own taste. But rules may be safely broken, of course, by those of us with gift of natural grace. For example, when a man and woman are led to their table in a restaurant and the waiter pulls out a chair, the woman is expected to sit in the chair. That is according to Ms. Ann Clark. I have always done it the other way, according to my wife. =O8>[u;  
9iM%kY#)W  
It came up only the other night. I followed the hostess to the table, and when she pulled the chair out I sat on it, quite naturally, since it happened to be the chair I wanted to sit in. q &{<HcP  
.oLV\'HAR  
“Well,” my wife said, when the hostess had gone, “you did it again.” :/E s%z D  
v2:i'j6  
“Did what?” I asked, utterly confused. h7T),UL  
nSBhz  
“Took the chair.” ( C).Vj~  
5F ^VvzNn

Also, it has always been my custom to get in a car first, and let the woman get in by herself. This is a courtesy I insist on as the stronger sex, out of love and respect. In times like these, there might be attackers hidden about. It would be unsuitable to put a woman in a car and then shut the door on her, leaving her at the mercy of some bad fellow who might be hiding in the back seat. `=,emP&(H&

  Does a drink a day keep heart attacks away? Over the past 20 years, numerous studies have found that moderate alcohol consumption--say, one or two beers, glasses of wine or cocktails daily-- helps to prevent coronary heart disease. Last week a report in the New England Journal of Medicine added strong new evidence in support of that theory. More important, the work provided the first solid indication of how alcohol works to protect the heart. Kx__&a  
c3A\~tHW  
  In the study, researchers from Boston's Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School compared the drinking habits of 340 men and women who had suffered recent heart attacks with those of healthy people of the same age and sex. The scientists found that people who sip one to three drinks a day are about half as likely to suffer heart attacks as nondrinkers are. The apparent source of the protection: those who drank alcohol had higher blood levels of high-density lipoproteins (脂蛋白), the so-called good cholesterol (胆固醇), which is known to repel heart disease. jVj5; }  
 T~TP  
  As evidence has mounted, some doctors have begun recommending a daily drink for patients of heart diseases. But most physicians are not ready to recommend a regular happy hour for everyone. The risks of teetotalling are nothing compared with the dangers of too much alcohol, including high blood pressure, strokes and liver troubles--not to mention violent behaviour and traffic accidents. Moreover, some studies suggest that even moderate drinking may increase the incidence of breast and colon (结肠) cancer. Until there is evidence that the benefits of a daily dose of alcohol outweigh the risks, most people won't be able to take a doctor's prescription to the neighbourhood bar or liquor store. k_al*iM>H

I am going to mobilise public opinion sufficiently to bring to the very top of the nation's conservation agenda the several endangered species I have in mind. I think all I ask now, is that the mangel-wurzel be not allowed to die out. 6#w>6g4V~R  
u#05`i:Z  
The mangel has been a great friend to the traditional British farmer. It is the easiest of crops to grow and is seemingly resistant to any disease. There is a price to be paid in that it is a delicate crop that cannot be lifted by machine or it will be bruised and rot, so has to be hauled by hand which is expensive. But why, just because it is a sensitive soul, should it be allowed to pass away? I have now grown five crops and each has been better than the previous one. I had high hopes that we might achieve that happy state, where the mangels were so huge it took two men to lift one. But my dreams lie shattered across the desks of the seed merchants who insist there is no mangel seed to be found. sA0 Ho6  
<J%qzt}  
Things have been on the decline for some years. A catalogue from the 1920s listed more than 30 varieties, yet the most I have ever been offered is a choice of two. This year there is no choice at all. The next question that arises is how I am going to break this to the livestock, and to the cows in particular who have done spectacularly well when winter arrived and I stopped feeding them corn and gave them mangels instead. How can I bring myself, next New Year, to offer them miserable pellets of something indescribable when they have spent the whole of the autumn looking forward to the day when their jaws will sink into that crisp, ruddy root and the sweet juices will flow? 7j& t{q5  
9#E *o~1  
The seed suppliers tell me things will be better next year but I am not certain I trust them. Our only hope now is to create a demand for mangels, make them into a fashion item, get them into Habitate. As a crop, they would be quite easy to grow in a garden and whilst not the most attractive of border plants they make wonderful wine, I am told. Zl V  
+]l?JKV  
This may all sound far-fetched, but the situation is serious and demands an urgent and imaginative response: any ideas you may have would be welcome. My Farmers' Cyclopedia of 1912 tells me that mangel-wurzel means, roughly translated from German, "root of scarcity". Let us hope that it does not live up to its name. "+DA)K

I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that if it weren’t for my job I would immediately head out for the open space and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But how realistic is the dream? 'q}Ud10c  
<mX5VGY9^  
Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in massive tower blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window is sky, or other blocks of flats. Children become aggressive and nervous—cooped up at home all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world. Strangely enough, whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don’t even say hello to each other. `&I6=,YLp  
P]"@3Z&w  
Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a village, it is also true that you are cut from the exciting and important events that take place in cities. There’s little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on an expedition to the nearest large town. The city-dweller who leaves for the country is often oppressed by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet. JP!e'oWxi  
/5%'q~  
What, then, is the answer? The country has the advantage of peace and quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off; the city breeds a feeling of isolation, and constant noise batters the senses. But one of its main advantages is that you are at the centre of things, and that life doesn’t come to an end at half past nine at night. Some people have found (or rather bought) a compromise between the two: they have expressed their preference for the “quiet life” by leaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of large cities. They generally have about as much sensitivity as the plastic flowers they leave behind—they are polluted with strange ideas about changes and improvement which they force on to the unwilling original inhabitants of the villages. 3SM'vV0[

What then of my dreams of leaning on a cottage gate and murmuring “morning” to the locals as they pass by. I’m keen on the idea, but you see there’s my cat, Toby. I’m not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass. I mean, can you see him mixing with all those healthy males down the farm? No, he would rather have the electric imitation-coal fire any evening. C,,T7(: k

Intellectual property is characterized by heavy fixed costs relative to marginal costs. It is often very expensive to create, but once it is created the cost of making additional copies is low, dramatically so in the case of software, where it is only a slight overstatement to speak of marginal cost as zero. Without legal protection, the creator of intellectual property may be unable to recoup his investment, because competitors can free ride on it; and so legal protection can expand output rather than, as in the usual case of monopoly, reduce it. At the same time, legal protection of intellectual property may operate to deflect consumers to more costly substitutes. The owner of the patent or copyright will charge a positive price for copying, even though the marginal cost may be zero; the positive price will deflect some consumers to substitutes. To prevent these defections would require perfect price discrimination, which is infeasible because it would require the seller to have complete information about the elasticity of the demand for his product by all his customers and potential customers.
