问题 单项选择题

A县乡镇企业局与B市公安局一同到吉林省购买木材。木材运回后,暂时存放在A县乡镇企业局院内。后A县乡镇企业局未与B市公安局商量,擅自将属于公安局的80立方米木材变卖。后公安局多次向A县乡镇企业局索要变卖货款均未果。为要回货款,公安局于2004年5月18日将到B市出差的A县乡镇企业局工作人员乘坐的轿车扣留,并发给工作人员一份交通违章处罚通知书。A县乡镇企业局对此处罚决定不服,诉至法院。就此案而言,人民法院受理本案后对公安局的具体行政行为作出的处理正确的是:( )。

A.判决维持
B.判决撤销
C.判决其在一定期限内履行
D.判决变更行政处罚

答案

参考答案:B

解析:[考点] 行政诉讼判决的种类
[详解] 根据《行政诉讼法》第54条第 (二)项的规定,本案属于明显滥用职权的行为,应予撤销。该法同条第(四)项规定“行政处罚显失公正的,可以判决变更”。必须注意此项与第(二)项规定的关系。行政诉讼一般只对行政行为的合法性进行审查,但“行政处罚显失公正的,可以判决变更”是对行政处罚这一特殊的具体行政行为的合理性进行审查。对合理性进行审查的基础是该行政处罚是合法的,如果该行政处罚是违法的,也就没有进行合理性审查的必要。该案中,行政处罚明显违法,属于“滥用职权”,按照《行政诉讼法》第54条第(二)项的规定,应判决撤销,故B项正确D项错误。根据同法第 (三)项之规定,“被告不履行或者拖延履行法定职责的,判决其在一定期限内履行。”一般适用于行政主体的消极不作为,故C项不应选。

问答题

The theory of evolution by natural selection was put forward in the 1850s independently by two men. One was Charles Darwin; the other was Alfred Russel Wallace. Both men had some scientific background, of course, but at heart both men were naturalists. Darwin had been a medical student at Edinburgh University for two years, before his father who was a wealthy doctor proposed that he might become a clergyman and sent him to Cambridge.Wallace, whose parents were poor and who had left school at 14, had followed courses at Working Men’s Institutes in London and Leicester as a surveyor’s apprentice and pupil teacher. The fact is that there are two traditions of explanation that march side by side in the ascent of man. One is the analysis of the physical structure of the world. The other is the study of the processes of life: their delicacy, their diversity, the wavering cycles from life to death in the individual and in the species. And these traditions do not come together until the theory of evolution; because until then there is a paradox which cannot be resolved, which cannot be begun, about life. The paradox of the life sciences, which makes them different in kind from physical science, is in the detail of nature everywhere. We see it about us in the birds, the trees, the grass, the snails, in every living thing. It is this, the manifestations of life, its expressions, its forms, are so diverse that they must contain a large element of the accidental. And yet the nature of life is so uniform that it must be constrained by many necessities. So it is not surprising that biology as we understand it begins with naturalists in the 18th and 19th centuries: observers of the countryside, bird-watchers, clergymen, doctors, gentlemen of leisure in country houses. I am tempted to call them, simply, "gentlemen in Victorian England", because it cannot be an accident that the theory of evolution is conceived twice by two men living at the same time in the same culture — the culture of Queen Victoria in England.
