Is There Anybody Out There?

We have seen them in films, we have read about them in books and we have heard about them in the news. But do those green creatures with big heads really exist? The astronomer, Ros Watts, has just written a new book called Is there anybody out there? Here, Carl Jackson interviews her.

CJ: Professor Watts, you go to a lot of international conferences on astronomy. Where have you been this month?

RW: Well, I have just come back from Puerto Rico. We have just had a meeting there to discuss radio signals from space.

CJ: Have we ever received signals from outer space?

RW: No, we haven’t. But scientists have begun a programme to look for them. They are using radio telescopes.

CJ: And have scientists sent messages into space?

RW: Yes, we have. In fact, we have just sent a new message. We’ve used mathematics to try to communicate with aliens. But we haven’t had a reply!

CJ: And what about space exploration? What have scientists found? Have you ever seen signs of life?

RW: We haven’t discovered ‘life’ but we’ve seen conditions for it. A spaceship has just taken new pictures of Mars. They show that there was water on the planet once. And, we have just made a very interesting discovery – there is ice at the poles of the Moon!

CJ: Wow, that’s interesting. One last question, Professor Watts. Have you ever seen an alien or a UFO?

The City of Melbourne

Melbourne is a very large city situated on the south-eastern coast of Australia. It is made up of a Central Business District (C.B.D.) and many surrounding suburbs. Melbourne covers an area of more than 6,000 square kilometers, which is about the size of London.

In one hundred and fifty years, Melbourne has grown from a small campsite into a city of three and a half million people. Most families live in the suburbs in a detached house with its own garden. This means that people have to travel long distances to school and work or to go shopping. Almost everyone has a car and although most streets are wide, there is a traffic problem. Many motorways have been built to make it easier to get into the C.B.D. but there are always traffic jams during the rush hour!

Melbourne is a beautiful city with many parks and gardens. There are a lot of monuments, interesting buildings and sights to see. It has the world’s third largest zoo, which houses famous Australia animals such as the kangaroo and koala bear. There is also a lot to do in the evenings. Melbourne has many nightclubs, bars and restaurants which offer food from all over the world. So if you ever visit Australia, make sure you spend a few days in the ‘Garden City’.

  1. Melbourne is situated near the sea.
  2. Melbourne is about 150 years old.
  3. Melbourne is bigger than London.
  4. Melbourne has a population of about 3,500,000.
  5. Most people drive to work in Melbourne.
  6. There are traffic jams in Melbourne because the streets are so wide.

Most people have heard of Alexander Graham Bell, who invented the telephone in 1876. But it was a little-known English priest called Henry Hunnings who made the first big improvement. Bell’s model could transmit a voice up to about 23 km. A year after its invention, Thomas Edison improved on the model by attaching a solid-carbon button inside the mouthpiece. But Hunnings decided to experiment with granular carbon (11) …………. . This improved the voice clarity and extended the voice-transmission distance to about 72 km. Hunnings was granted a patent for his invention in December 1878.

Hunnings was born in 1843 near London. He became a priest in Yorkshire and although much of his time was taken up with Church matters, he had a profound interest in all sorts of gadgets, (12)…………… . A friend of Hunnings with similar interests, called Cox Walker, built a telephone receiver. In 1880, an American called Anders visited England and asked Walker (13) …………… . He was impressed and offered Hunnings 1,000 pounds for the patent. The offer was accepted and the Globe Company was formed (14)…………… In 1881, Hunnings was granted two patents in the United States for his invention. But by this time so many people and companies were involved in telephone design and manufacture (15) ……………. . There was a famous court case in 1882 when the United Telephone Company took the Globe Company to court for an alleged infringement of its patents. At first it failed to have the Hunnings patent declared invalid (16) ………….. . It then bought the rights to the entire patent from Hunnings.
