Chapter 10, THE BOOK THAT SAVES THE EARTH

~Summary~

–by Claire Boiko 

Historian Talks about a Book that Saved Earth

It is the twenty-fifth century. The scene is set at the Museum of Ancient History. The department is that of twentieth century. Historian tells the people that twentieth century was called the Era of the Book. There were books on everything. They covered all aspects of life. She tells that Martians (people of Mars) decided to invade Earth in 2040. Everyone was surprised to know that it was a book that saved the Earth. She turns on the projector and shows how it all happened.

यह पच्चीसवीं शताब्दी है। दृश्य प्राचीन इतिहास के संग्रहालय में सेट है। विभाग बीसवीं सदी का है। इतिहासकार लोगों को बताते हैं कि बीसवीं सदी को किताबों का युग कहा जाता था। हर चीज पर किताबें थीं। उन्होंने जीवन के सभी पहलुओं को कवर किया। वह बताती हैं कि मार्टियंस (मंगल ग्रह के लोगों) ने 2040 में पृथ्वी पर आक्रमण करने का फैसला किया था। हर कोई यह जानकर हैरान था कि यह एक किताब थी जिसने पृथ्वी को बचाया। वह प्रोजेक्टर चालू करती है और दिखाती है कि यह सब कैसे हुआ।

Think Tank Orders the Invasion of Earth

The ruler of Mars, the Mighty Think Tank, is a proud creature whose head is full of himself. He calls Earth a ridiculous planet. He commands his trainee Noodle to call the space probe that is invading the Earth.

शक्तिशाली थिंक टैंक, मंगल का शासक एक घमंडी प्राणी है जिसका सिर खुद से भरा हुआ है। वह पृथ्वी को एक हास्यास्पद ग्रह कहता है। वह अपने प्रशिक्षु नूडल को पृथ्वी पर आक्रमण करने वाली अंतरिक्ष जांच को बुलाने का आदेश देता है।

Space Probe Lands in Centerville Public Library

The space probe finds itself in a Centerville Public library. They are puzzled. They are not familiar with books. They do not understand what are those thousands of objects.

अंतरिक्ष यान खुद को सेंटरविल पब्लिक लाइब्रेरी में पाता है। वे हैरान हैं। वे किताबों से परिचित नहीं हैं। वे नहीं समझते कि वे हजारों वस्तुएँ क्या हैं।

Guesses made by Martians about the Books

Sergeant Oop thinks that the books are hats. But Think Tank calls them sandwiches and orders the crew to eat them. The wise noodle gently suggests that they may be devices of communication. Think Tank asks the probe team to listen to them. They do not hear anything. Again, Noodle very politely suggests that earthlings watched them. They cannot read the books and come to a conclusion that the printed lines and pictures must be some kind of code.

सार्जेंट ऊप सोचता है कि किताबें टोपी हैं। लेकिन थिंक टैंक उन्हें सैंडविच कहता है और क्रू को उन्हें खाने का आदेश देता है। बुद्धिमान नूडल धीरे से सुझाव देते हैं कि वे संचार के उपकरण हो सकते हैं। थिंक टैंक जांच दल को उनकी बात सुनने के लिए कहता है। उन्हें कुछ सुनाई नहीं देता। फिर से, नूडल बहुत विनम्रता से सुझाव देता है कि धरती के लोग उन्हें देखते थे। वे पुस्तकें पढ़कर इस निष्कर्ष पर नहीं पहुँच सकते कि छपी हुई पंक्तियाँ और चित्र किसी प्रकार का कोड होना चाहिए।

 Think-Tank Commands the Team to Take Vitamins

Think Tank asks the probe team to eat the vitamins given to them. They follow him and are able to read the book. The lines are about Mistress Mary and her garden of cockle shells and silver bells.

थिंक टैंक जांच दल को उन्हें दिए गए विटामिन खाने के लिए कहता है। वे उसका अनुसरण करते हैं और पुस्तक पढ़ने में सक्षम होते हैं। ये पंक्तियां मिस्ट्रेस मैरी और उनके कॉकल सीप और चांदी की घंटियों के बगीचे के बारे में हैं।

Mighty Think-tank is Alarmed

Think Tank thinks that the earthlings were very advanced. They grew shells and silver. They had taught animals culture and music. He thought they were about to send cows for an invasion to the moon. He is further terrified when he is sent the picture of the fallen Humpty-Dumpty. He thinks it to be his picture.

थिंक टैंक सोचता है कि पृथ्वीवासी बहुत उन्नत थे। वे शंख और चाँदी उगाते थे। उन्होंने जानवरों को संस्कृति और संगीत सिखाया था। उसने सोचा कि वे गायों को चंद्रमा पर आक्रमण के लिए भेजने वाले हैं। जब उसे गिरे हुए हम्प्टी-डम्प्टी की तस्वीर भेजी जाती है तो वह और डर जाता है। उसे लगता है कि यह उसकी तस्वीर है।

Think-Tank Calls Off the Invasion

He cancels the invasion. He asks his probe to leave. He orders his fleet to escape to the star Alpha Centauri and evacuate Mars. He wants to be as far away as possible from earthlings.

वह आक्रमण रद्द कर देता है। वह अपनी जांच छोड़ने के लिए कहता है। वह अपने बेड़े को स्टार अल्फा सेंटॉरी से बचने और मंगल ग्रह को खाली करने का आदेश देता है। वह पृथ्वीवासियों से यथासंभव दूर रहना चाहता है।

Martians and Earthlings are Friends in Twenty Fifth Century

The Historian reveals that it was ‘Mother Goose’, a book of rhymes, that saved the Earth. Anyway, Noodle succeeded Think Tank and became the head of Mars. Mars and Earth were now friends. Earthlings had even set up a library in their capital, Marsopolis. Funnily, however, Martians could never gather the courage to read the ‘Mother Goose’ book.

इतिहासकार ने खुलासा किया है कि यह ‘मदर गूज’ थी, जो तुकबंदी की एक किताब थी, जिसने पृथ्वी को बचाया। वैसे भी, नूडल थिंक टैंक में सफल हुआ और मंगल ग्रह का प्रमुख बन गया। मंगल और पृथ्वी अब मित्र थे। पृथ्वीवासियों ने अपनी राजधानी मार्सोपोलिस में एक पुस्तकालय भी स्थापित किया था। मजे की बात यह है कि मंगल निवासी कभी भी ‘मदर गूज’ पुस्तक को पढ़ने का साहस नहीं जुटा सके।

Conclusion of The Book That Saved the Earth

In the chapter – The Book That Saved the Earth states how Mother Goose, which is a well-known English nursery rhymes book, saves Planet Earth from a Martian invasion. It teaches students that a person who thinks greatly of himself but has little knowledge can be dangerous.

अध्याय में – द बुक दैट सेव्ड द अर्थ में बताया गया है कि कैसे मदर गूज, जो कि एक प्रसिद्ध अंग्रेजी नर्सरी राइम्स बुक है, ग्रह पृथ्वी को मंगल ग्रह के आक्रमण से बचाती है। यह छात्रों को सिखाता है कि एक व्यक्ति जो अपने बारे में बहुत सोचता है लेकिन कम ज्ञान रखता है वह खतरनाक हो सकता है।
