23、I believe in the power of the unknown. I believe that a sense of the unknown pushes us forward in all of our creative activities, from science to art.
When I was a child, after bedtime I would often go to the window and stare at the stars. I had so many questions. How far away were those tiny points of light? Did space go on forever and ever, or was there some edge? And if so, what lay beyond the edge?
Another of my childhood questions: Did time go on forever? I looked at pictures of my parents and tried to imagine their parents, and so on, back through the generations. Does time go on forever? Or is there some beginning of time?
When I grew up, I became a professional astrophysicist. Although I never answered any of these questions, they continued to challenge me, to haunt me, to drive me in my scientific research, and to cause me to live on tuna fish and no sleep for days at a time while I was crazy about a science problem. These same questions, and questions like them, challenge and haunt the leading scientists of today.
Einstein once wrote that “the most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the beginning of true art and true science.” What did Einstein mean by “the mysterious?” I don’t think he meant that science is full of unpredictable or unknowable or supernatural forces. I think that he meant a sense of awe, a sense that there are things larger than us, that we do not have all the answers at this moment, and that we can stand right at the boundary between known and unknown.
Scientists are happy, of course, when they find answers to questions. But scientists are also happy when they become stuck, when they discover interesting questions that they cannot answer. That is when their imaginations and creativity are set on fire. That is when the greatest progress occurs.

24、 All armed criminals must be treated as dangerous. They are usually nervous and unpredictable. Some may also be under the influence of drugs or alcohol. What should you do?
Above all, remain calm. Remaining calm can have two effects: It can reduce the chance of the criminal becoming disturbed and reduce the risk of violence. Tell yourself what to do, i.e. "be calm" rather than what not to do, i.e. "don't panic”. Some helpful phrases are: be brave; keep quiet; move naturally, and above all, remain calm.
Then, appear obedient. Speak only if you need to answer the criminal and always reply honestly. Keep your answers short, clear and positive, using simple words and phrases, e.g. "The safe is closed and locked. I only have the money in the cash drawer.”
Remain as far away from the criminal as possible. When asked to hand over the money, place it on the counter and take a step back. This will ensure you don't crowd the criminal and go into his or her comfort zone.
Keep your hands in sight at all times with the palms facing the criminal If you need to move your hands out of the criminal's sight, ask them for permission. Wait for their approval before moving them.
Turning side on to the criminal can make you look less threatening by making you look smaller. It also presents less of a target to the criminal to hit and allows you to protect yourself with your arm.
Alarms should only be raised when it is completely safe to do so.
Assist the police by noting the time of the robbery, the time the criminal left the scene and in which direction he went, the weapons used, a description of the criminal and any evidence at the scene.
Observe criminals in a suitable way. Avoid direct eye contact with the criminal look at the chin of the criminal and use your glance to obtain details. Record as much detail as you possibly can. You never know what may seem unimportant may turn out to be a vital piece of evidence that can solve the case.
