Much of the language used to describe monetary policy, such as steering the economy to a soft landing or a touch on the brakes, makes itself sound like a precise science.
Nothing could be further from the truth. The link between interest rates and inflation is uncertain. And there are long, variable lags before policy changes have any effect on the economy.
17
Hence there is an analogy that likens the conduct of monetary policy to driving a car with a blackened windscreen, a cracked rearview mirror and a faulty steering wheel.
Given all these disadvantages, central bankers seem to have had much to boast about of late. Average inflation in the big seven industrial economies fell to a mere 2.3% last year, close to its lowest level in 30 years, before rising slightly to 2.5% this July. This is a long way below the double-digit rates which many countries experienced in the 1970s and early 1980s.
It is also less than most forecasters had predicted. In late 1994 the panel of economists which The Economist polls each month said that America"s inflation rate would average 3.5% in 1995. In fact, it fell to 2.6% in August, and is expected to average only about 3% for the year as a whole.
18
In Britain and Japan inflation is running half a percentage point below the rate predicted at the end of last year, this is no flash in the pan; over the past couple of years, inflation has been consistently lower than expected in Britain and America.
19
Economists have been particularly surprised by favourable inflation figures in Britain and the United States, since conventional measures suggest that both economies, and especially America"s, have little productive slack.
America"s capacity utilisation, for example, hit historically high levels earlier this year, and its jobless rate (5.6% in August) has fallen below most estimates of the natural rate of unemployment—the rate below which inflation has taken off on the past.
Why has inflation proved so mild? The most thrilling explanation is, unfortunately, a little defective.
20
Some economists argue that powerful structural changes in the world have upended the old economic models that were based upon the historical link between growth and inflation.

In the past year, a lot has changed in the field of human
spaceflight. (46) {{U}}In January, President George Bush brushed aside the fact
that America's entire space-shuttle fleet was grounded when he announced
grandiose plans to put people back on the moon, and then to launch a manned
mission to Mars. {{/U}}(47) {{U}}In June, Burt Rutan, an American aeronautical
engineer, showed that human spaceflight was no longer the preserve of
governments by sending a man to the edge of space in Space Ship One, a privately
financed vehicle that cost about the same to build as a luxury yacht.{{/U}} That
was followed in September by Sir Richard Branson, the British entrepreneur
behind the Virgin brand, announcing that he had signed a deal with Mr Rutan to
work on plans for a fleet of five suborbital vehicles developed from Space Ship
One. (48) {{U}}Now, in the dying days of the year, America's
Congress has passed a bill that unravels a tangle about who would be responsible
for regulating the fledgling industry, and under what terms.{{/U}} (49) {{U}}The
hill also allows passengers to fly on the understanding that this new generation
of vehicles may not be as safe as taking a commercial flight between, say, New
York and London.{{/U}} The official line from Virgin Galactica,
as Sir Richard's latest venture is modestly named, is that this coming change in
the law makes no practical difference to the firm's plans, since they do not
intend to fly unless they can make their spacecraft as safe as a private jet.
But it must surely come as some sort of relief. In any case, Will Whitehorn,
director of corporate affairs at Virgin's headquarters in London, and soon to
become the president of Virgin Galactica, says that work is under way on a mock
up of the inter[or of a new spacecraft that will hold five passengers. (50)
{{U}}Virgin has already committed $20m towards licensing the SpaceShipOne
technology from Mr Rutan and his financial backer Paul Allen, a software
billionaire.{{/U}}

问答题Since the dawn of human ingenuity, people have devised ever more cunning tools to cope with work that is dangerous, boring, burdensome, or just plain nasty. That compul sion has resulted in robotics the science of conferring various human capabilities on ma chines. And if scientists have yet to create the mechanical version of science fiction, they have begun to come close. As a result, the modern world is increasingly populated by intelligent gizmos whose presence we barely notice but whose universal existence has removed much human labor. Indeed the quest or true artificial intelligence has produced very mixed results. Despite a spell of initial optimism in the 1960s and 1970s when it appeared that transistor circuits and microprocessors might be able to copy the action o the human brain by the year 2010, researchers lately have begun to extend that ~orecast by decades if not centuries.
