40"Scholars and researchers should not be concerned with whether their work makes a contribution to the larger society. It is more important that they pursue their individual interests, however unusual or idiosyncratic those interests may seem."

Nowadays, accompanying with scholars and researchers engaging in their researcher and academic, they always are confused by the problem that which they should choose between their work makes a contribution to the larger society and their individual interests. Lots of people maybe have an attitude towards that the contribution to the larger society is more important than individual interests as the statement promote. For balancing between its pros and cons, we should make a scrutiny into the speaker's claim and consider it comprehensively and systematically, my point involve the rationale and all-sided consideration is that scholars and researchers should seek a balance between pursue their work makes a contribution to the larger society and their individual interests.

Firstly and basically, to a certain extent, the arguer's assertion have some merits
primarily in that have sufficient empirical support and logical proof although suffers form significant deficiencies. Indeed, scholars and researchers should pursue their individual interests although those interests may seem unusual or idiosyncratic, owing to that the importance of their interests: promote scholars and researchers to make their great efforts to pursuit for their ideal, impel scholars and researchers to explore in uncharted field and conquer the difficulty with nerve and willpower, prompt scholars and researchers to insist on their ideas until they succeed. Just because of their interests, the scientist can get the innovation and achievement and advance the progress of the society 's technology and civilization. An instance can indicate the view that Edison invent the first electric light and other innovation thanks to he has strong interests about the science and research. Besides, Scholars and researchers interests may seem unusual or idiosyncratic sometimes and can't accept by numerous people. Such as George Stephenson, due to his unusual or idiosyncratic interests and novel thought, promote the first train run, is skeptical and jeered by the noble and public at the time, nonetheless, thanks to these unusual or idiosyncratic interests, we can benefit form the traffic convenience. Hence, it is partially indisputable and advisable for scholars and researchers to aspire after their individual interests

Despite the desirable part of the arguer's contestation we must be aware of that overextended underscore is inadvisable and problematic and it doesn't mean that individual interest is more important than the contribution to the larger society for scholars and researchers although we had admit the importance of individual interests. Some scholars and researchers only accentuate individual interests and neglect the larger society is valueless and even harmful for the human, for example, the clone technology, the research about nuclear weapon and so on. If at these respects scholars and researchers only concern with their interests rather than the security and contribution of our larger society, it will induce to disastrously hazards even threaten human existence and progress.
On the contrary, some scholars and researchers select the benefit of the larger society not the individual interest at the crisis time and eventually they make a impressively achievement and contribution. an appropriate case that is very persuasive can demonstrate the opinion very clearly, Xun Lu,
a writer in china, picked up literature according with the need of our large society and nation, abandon the medicine that is his original interest, consequently, he woke up people to establish ethnic sense and pursue self-enhancement as well as he became famous and successful. it is insofar that scholars and researchers should concern whether their work makes a contribution to the larger society and nation on the ground that the analysis mentioned above.

Based on the estimation made above, we can draw a conclusion that scholars and researchers should aspire after their individual interests so that they can contrive some new tools and technology, additionally, they also should consider whether their work makes a contribution to the larger society and nation. To sum up, It is sensible and imperative for scholars and researchers to seek a balance between individual interests and contribution to the larger society and nation, and their achievements and innovations are able to respected and remembered widely and perpetually.
