Jefferson: chief author of Declaration of Independence (1776); 3d president of the U.S. (1801*09); purchased Louisiana from France, sent Lewis and Clark to explore it; prohibited importation of slaves; instrumental in founding U. of Virginia. From him we can see the importance initially laid upon education. He required his progenies to carve such epitaph on his tombstone as ‘chief author of Declaration of Independence; author of the Freedom Law of Religion in Virginia; Father of the Virginia Uni.’ Without mentioning of his presidency. It reflected vividly what a status of education in Jefferson’s heart and this status was inherited by his successors. It is why American’s being super power of the world today.
Pasteur: French chemist & microbiologist; did pioneer work in the study of microorganisms and their effects; developed method of inoculating against anthrax and chicken cholera; developed cure and prevention for rabies; developed the germ theory of disease that disentangled human from the superstition that disease are a curse cast by god.
Hegel had a philosophy of history which did not suffer from any lack of comprehensiveness, since it started from the earliest times and continued into an indefinite future. But the chief lesson of history which he sought to inculcate was that from the year A.D.400 down to his own time, Germany had been the most important nation and the standard bearer of progress in the world. His extremism and blind veneration for Germany’s past directly contribute to the most disastrous calamities that agonized human race: World WarⅠand World War.
Socrates once said ‘ look into your own selves and find the spark of truth that god has put into every heart, and that only you can kindle to a flame’.
Thomas J. Watson, the founder of IBM, has said: ‘the way to succeed is to double your failure rate.’
Nature serves as a good example of how trial and error can be used to make changes. Every now and then genetic mutations occur—errors in gene reproduction. Most of the time, these mutations have a deleterious effect on the species, and they drop out of the gene pool. But occasionally, a mutation provides the species with something beneficial, and that change will be passed on to future generations. The rich variety of all species is due to this trial and error process. If there had never been any mutations from the first amoeba, where would we be now?
Errors serve another useful purpose: they tell us when to change direction. When things are going smoothly, we generally don’t think about them. To a great extent, this is because we function according to the principle of negative feedback. Of it is only when things or people fail to do their job that they get our attention. For example, you are probably not thinking about your kneecaps right now; that’s because everything is fine with them. The same goes for your elbows: they are also performing their function—no problem at all. But if you were to break a leg, you would immediately notice all of the things you could no longer do, but which you used to take for granted.
As a matter of fact, the whole history of discovery is filled with people who used erroneous assumptions and failed ideas as stepping stones to new ideas. Columbus thought he was finding a shorter route to India. Johannes Kepler stumbled on to the idea of interplanetary gravity because of assumptions which were right for the wrong reasons. And, Thomas Edison knew 1800 ways not to build a light bulb.
They want a map—right now—that they can follow unswervingly to career security, financial security, social security and, presumably, a prepaid grave.
Students nowadays blindly put their energy on courses that point toward a specific profession—courses that are pre-law, pre-business, pre-medical, or, as I sometimes heard it put, ‘pre-rich’.
What kind of stories, historical events, and famous lives should we talk about? If we want our children to know about honesty, we should teach them about Abe Lincoln’s walking three miles to return six cents and, conversely, about Aesop’s shepherd boy who cried wold. If we want them to know about courage, we should teach them about Joan of Arc, Horatius at the bridge, and Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad. If we want them to know about persistence in the face of adversity, they should know about the voyages of Columbus, and the character of Washington during the Revolution and Lincoln during the Civil War. If we want them to know about respect for the law, they should understand why Socrates told Crito: ‘No, I must submit to the decree of Athens.’ If we want our children to respect the rights of others, they should read the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, and Martin Luther King’s ‘Letter from Birmingham jail.’

Absolute power leads to absolute corruption. ------Sir. Acton
In sum, although scientific discoveries and technological advances have produced tremendous improvements in the quality of human life, they have often had negative consequences as well. The risk of cancer caused by the inhalation of toxic fumes, the possibility of large-scale industrial accidents, the ethical issues raised by the use of life-prolonging technologies, and the ever-present danger of nuclear holocaust are as much a part of the modern era as space travel, miracle drugs, and computers that can operate whole factories. Although technology is not ‘out of control’, there is clearly a need for improved procedures for anticipating and preventing the negative consequences of new technologies.

Early machine technologies tended to replace human labor power, but high technology tends to reduce the need for human brain power.
Events like the accident at the Three Mile Island nuclear-power plant in 1979; the toxic gas leak that killed more than 2,000 people in India in 1984; and the disaster of nuclear-power plant in the soviet union in 1986 seem to indicate that human beings cannot control the technologies they have created.
Science advances in a widening spiral in that each new conceptual scheme embraces the phenomena explained by its predecessors and adds to those explanations.
Technology
Throughout human history a central aspect of technological change has been the quest for new sources of energy to meet the needs of growing populations. That quest has given rise to a succession of energy technologies, each more sophisticated than the last. Animal power gave way to steam-driven machinery, which in turn was replaced by the internal-combustion engine.

The problem of oil depletion is only the most recent in a series of energy crises that began with the created conditions that spurred the development of agriculture. Later, in the waning years of the Roman Empire, a shortage of labor power to grind flour encouraged the use of waterpower. The industrial revolution had its origins in the depletion of the supply of wood during the Renaissance. Coal was plentiful, and experiments with its use as an energy source led to the development of new techniques for producing energy and processes for manufacturing goods.

It could make possible the colonization and exploration of space, the rapid development of the less-developed nations, the elimination of energy technologies based on oil and coal, and much else.

It would seem from what we have said so far that the quest for energy is a positive force that results in new, sometimes revolutionary technologies that greatly improve the quality of human life. ---让步转折

Technology can be both a blessing and a curse.

Charles Perrow said ‘human-made catastrophes appear to have increased with industrialization as we built devices that could crash, sink, burn, or explode.’

It is important to study technological systems in their entirety rather than focusing on individual components of those systems. For example, in the case of Three Mile Island the accident was not a simple matter of scientists and bureaucrats to admit that they might be mistaken. Similar conditions led to the explosion of the Challenger space shuttle in 1986. -科技灾难中的非人为因素

In the ancient world those who controlled the irrigation systems were the ruling elite, in the United States the “robber barons” of the late nineteenth century often gained both wealth and political influence from their control of oil and coal supplies. Thus, much of the opposition to nuclear-power plants stems from the recognition that control over energy supplies is a key source of economic and political power. –-科技对权利的作用
In 1852: the famous novel “Uncle Tom’s cabin” written by Mrs. Stowe.
Its publication made a great stir in the northern states and it was so welcomed that eight power presses ran day and night to keep up with the demand. Many readers were greatly surprised and deeply moved by the novel’s description of the slave’s miserable life and inhuman treatment. Slavery was the very root of social cruelty. The novel played a very important role in mobilizing public opinion against slavery. When present Lincoln met Mrs. Stowe, he said to her: “you are the little woman that wrote the book that made the Great War.”

In 1862: Abraham Lincoln announced the famous Emancipation Proclamation.
It provided that all slaves in the rebelling states were freed they were welcome to join the armed forces of the North. The Proclamation declared the abolition of slavery—an objective of the war in addition to the declared objective of saving the Union.
About Abraham Lincoln:
Lincoln played a very important role in the war. Without his firmness, far sightedness, wise leadership, warmth and generosity, American history would have been rewritten. In 1864, he was elected president for the second term. His career reflects common American belief that everyone could become rich, successful and famous through hard work with all his intelligence and ability.

The American civil war was an epoch-making event in American history. It was a bourgeois revolution in nature, a continuation and expansion of the war of independence. It was a struggle of life and death between two social systems, between the progressive and the backward, between the one that would push history forward and the one that drag history to the old times. It was the broad mass who secured the victory with life and blood. They played a very important role in influencing the progress and the outcome of the war.



1902: Marie and Pierre Curie isolated pure radium.
This is one of the most exciting detective stories of the modern era, unfolded wooden shed on the outskirt of Paris at the turn of the century. There Pierre and Marie labored for many years, tracking down isolating, and examining the source of radioactivity. The long and twisting trail finally led to the discovery of two new element, radium and polonium.

1903: Wright brothers make aviation history with the first successful flight of a self-powered heavier-than-air craft.

1905: Einstein made special theory of relativity
“I have no special gift-I am only passionately curious.” Albert Einstein once said.
This quiet, modest man with a passion for truth proved a system of equation that overturn some of our most basic assumptions about the nature of universe. His theories of relativity joined time, space, matter, and energy in ways never before imagined.

1906: An unpublicized Christmas eve program broadcast music and human voice for the first time, heralds the beginning of a new era in communication.

1913: Igor Stravinsky’s passionate and unconventional ballet score “the rite of spring” takes Paris by storm, giving music and dance a new dimension.
Most music critics were outraged. They attacked Nijinsky as a man “devoid of ideas and even common sense.”
Few critics appreciated the “rite of spring” to be ahead of time though the score shocked early audience.

1946: the computer revolution
The success of ENIAC, the first electronic computer, leads to machines that will produce the most rapid social and economic revolution in history.

1953: Two scientists at Cambridge University announced their discovery of the structure DNA.

The arts of 1945-1956
Alberto Giacometti, his attenuated figures evoked the spiritual isolation of modern man.
The recurrent feeling in Giacometti’s work is one of isolation, conveyed by figures so attenuated that they seem on the point of disappearing and yet so precisely fragile that they seem to imbue the space around them with a feeling of encroachment.
Background: the horrors of World War II had made a mockery of the political sloganeering of the 1930’s. And the new threat of nuclear annihilation that dominated the postwar decade made what should be a tranquil period an anxious and agonizing time.

1969: in one of the truly momentous steps in human history, the voyage of Apollo 11 lands the first man safely on the moon.
