15．In offering Michael Jackson ticket holders the choice to take a refund or receive their unusable tickets as souvenirs，AEG have introduced music fans to one of the most unmanageable problems in the mathematical sciences．If nearly everybody takes the refund then the tickets，designed by the King of Pop himself，will become collectors'items and worth a fortune．However，if ail 750，000fans take their tickets then they will all hold worthless bits of fancy paper．
The choice facing fans is similar to the El Farol bar problem，which has been the subject of hundreds of academic papers and inspired a whole field：minority game theory．That is，if you reason that every Michael Jackson fan will take a refund then you should take the ticket，but they will reason in the same way and there will be a flood of souvenirs，so you should ask for your money back，but then…
So，with the benefit of the hundreds of academic papers from scientists around the world，what should a Times reader who holds a ticket do？The research tells us that，if you assume everybody else will use the same strategy as you，then the best you can do is to throw a dice（骰子）：deciding whether or not to keep the ticket according to a probability determined by demand for tickets and price．However，working out the probability is tough and most fans，without the benefit of minority game theory，won't be tossing a dice．
There is one huge factor in the Michael Jackson problem which isn't in the standard El Farol bar problem．Hype （炒作）•If the owners of the El Farol bar distributed fliers （传单） announcing it was going to be quiet next week，then it would be a safe bet to stay at home with a glass of wine．So my advice would be to read the newspapers and decide what to do on the basis of the experts'advice．If all the articles you read say the tickets will be collectors'items then ask for a refund，and if they all accuse AEG of cheating crazy fans then take the ticket．It was，after ail，designed by Michael Jackson．

12．Most tourist destinations around China are witnessing travel peaks during the eight-day Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays that run through Sunday．In Beijing，the Palace Museum，or the Forbidden City，attracted 182，000 tourists on Tuesday，the biggest number on a single day，as millions of visitors arrived in the national capital．"We saw absolutely nothing but people's heads，''said Guo Zhijun，42，of Henan province．"We wanted our 11-year-old son to learn something from the trip，but we only ended up very tired．"
  Earlier，from Sunday noon to midday Monday，garbage collected at Tian'anmen Square in the heart of the city amounted to 7.9 tons，a quarter more than that in the same period of last year．
    In the eastern coastal city of Qingdao，its top five major tourist sites attracted more than 200，000 visitors on Tuesday．
    Yesterday，thousands of cars jammed two 20-kilometer mountain roads winding to and out of the Lushan Mountain scenic area in the eastern province of Jiangxi．The area，with about 3，000 car parking spaces，was unable to contain at least 8，000 inbound cars，said head of the Lushan Mountain public security bureau．
    The Lushan Mountain tourism administration temporarily stopped selling entrance tickets to prevent the traffic from growing on Tuesday afternoon．Similar measures could be taken during the rest of the holidays，a police officer said．
  Emergency measures have been taken at other scenic sites．Crowded visitors overwhelmedthe capacity（承载量）of the cable cars at Huashan Mountain，in Shaanxi province，leaving tens of thousands stuck at the peak late into Tuesday night．According to China Central Television，restless visitors demanded refunds from the tourism committee，and a lot of visitors had to give up and walk down the mountain．
    Chen Li，deputy director of the Shaanxi Provincial Public Security Department，said on his micro blog that more than 300 policemen and government officials climbed up the mountain to help trapped visitors．Fearing that tourist sites might become too crowded，many people are staying at home，going shopping or making short suburban trips．A resident Mr．Wang in Nanchang，capital of Jiangxi，canceled long-distance travel plans after learning of heavy traffic on many highways during the first two days of the holidays．Instead，Wang，his wife and son went fishing in the suburbs before having a picnic．

19．Poorer children would be offered the chance to attend lessons on Saturday to help catch up with their middle?class peers （同龄人），the shadow schools secretary，Michael Gove，said today．The Conservatives would give English state schools the freedom to choose to have longer teaching hours and extra classes at the weekend，he told the Association of Teachers and Lecturers'annual conference．
Gove said the move would help to close the achievement gap with richer children whose parents could afford extras such as tutoring and music lessons．
He told delegates （代表） in Manchester："For children who come from homes where parents don't have the resources to provide additional stretch and cultural experiences，there are benefits in having those children in the learning environment，in school，for longer．"
"Parents would love to have schools starting earlier in some circumstances，and certainly going on later in the afternoon，given the reality of their working lives，"he said．He held up the example of Kipp （Knowledge is Power Program） schools in the US，which are often based in the poorest communities and open from 7：30am to 5pm on weekdays，plus Saturdays．
But it would be up to schools to decide to offer longer hours，Gove added．
Parents said Saturday classes could become a"badge of dishonor"if pupils were forced to go，while teachers raised concerns about their workload．
Margaret Morrissey，of Parents Outloud，said："I think the suggestion the government made about one-to-one teaching for these kids would be a more preferable way of improving these children's performance．I'm just not sure whether taking away a child at weekends is actually going to make them cleverer in the week．"
The ATL's general secretary，Mary Bousted，said："If we want Saturday schools，then we need more teachers doing the extra hours，not the same teachers working longer．"
