The speaker claims that government should place few restrictions on scientific research and development, as the speaker is probably aware of the fact not all scientific researches and development are beneficial to our society, instead, some scientific research in military field could threaten the security and stability of our society, thus some restrictions should be definitely placed on such researches. Besides, the speaker suggests that it is the responsibility of government to give the restrictions on the development of science; however government can not always be objective to place restrictions.



Admittedly, many scientific researches, instead of benefits the society in a positive way, they are more likely to give negative efforts to society. In such circumstance, although these researches could be meaningful to the scientific development, but generally, they may threaten more people's benefits. Therefore they must be restricted to protect the majority's value. The invention of most destructive weapons like the atomic and hydrogen bombs to the defense of one country is definitely good news, as those weapons highly safeguard the security of one country. But what happened in Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War two also makes us believe sometimes, these so called defending weapons could be more likely used to attack instead of defending. However, if the restrictions could be placed before these weapons were invented, then the tragedy in Hiroshima and Nagasaki could be possibly avoided.


Meanwhile, as the speaker claims it is the responsibility of the government to evaluate the good effort and the bad effort of them thus to decide if there should be restrictions placed on them. However, the truth is in many circumstances, even though some scientific reason are nothing but advantageous to the society, but as the government is tempted by the benefits which offered by the research involved business, the leader of the government can not be objective to make the final judgment, say the placement of restrictions. As the two parties are known to all being financially supported by many large companies, then we can not help but thinking what if some new developments would potentially decrease the profits of such companies, will these companies put forces on the government to make restrictions on these researches? What if these developments will bring people advantages and welfare? Does the decision maker, the leader group will favor its people instead of its own benefits? Many studies on new clean recourses were banned simply because their appearance on the market will threaten the profits of existing big oil companies, although these new resources are much more friendly to our environment and inexpensive. Many motions of discoveries of new medicine were denied because if they are accessible to the patients then the old drug companies will lost their market. These government finance supporting companies put their influences on the government, making government have to place unfair restrictions on the development of science, although the government is conscious that these developments will make a better life.


To sum up, in some circumstances, the restrictions should be made to curse the development of science in case the abuse, however, we can not always count on the government to make restrictions, as sometimes the decision maker of these restrictions-government- could probably take its own advantages as priority thus make unfair decisions.

我觉得没有必要在第一段就把那个例子举出来，就是军事，这个应该出现在分论段落，往后移。

As the two parties are known to all being financially supported by many large companies, then we can not help but thinking what if some new developments would potentially decrease the profits of such companies, will these companies put forces on the government to make restrictions on these researches?

这句话主语在哪里？好像应该写成2句更清晰
