The speaker has made two claims in this issue. The first one is that much of the information turns out to be inaccurate which is formerly considered as "factual" one; the second is that any piece of information referred to as a 'fact' should be mistrust(mistrusting or misleading?) because it is quite likely to be proven false in the future. I strongly agree with the first claim while I think the second one is not so convincible, as explained in the following discussion.(这应该是一类开头,但是似乎写得平淡了点,其实可以花点时间写写这类开头的模版,用些更漂亮的词语和句子)
For the first claim of the speaker, I agree that much of information which seems to be 'fact' might be discovered as an inaccuracy later. Information is a subjective concept, which reflects the objective observations in our mind. For this nature, ensuring its correctness is not practical or possible, even though it was once accepted by most people as a fact. For instance, people used to consider as a truth that the earth is the centre of the universe; however it was proved to be false several centuries later. Classical theory of physics developed by Newton used to be seen as an indisputable law in science; but it is less precise when compared with theory(该是复数吧) of relativity and quantum. It was believed in the past that human are produced by god, which lasted until the discovery of evolution made by Darwin.(用进化论不知道好不好,因为似乎GRE对进化论的态度都是负面的) Thus, we can conclude that information has its limit decided by the lever of the ability for people to perceive and analyze the world.
For the second claim, I contends that, although information is not always right, it does not follow that each piece of information which is referred to as 'fact' will be surely belied in the future. There is no evidence to support the logical relationship between a prevenient 'fact' and a later false(later a false). Whatever else may be said, most people would agree that not all the information is erroneous. Information is produced in the process that people observe an external object or event. As it can be wrong, it has the same possibility to be right. As none of us can deny that the blood is red while the grass is green, how can these obvious facts be proven inexact in the future?(不如用用黑格尔的名言:存在的就是合理的) Thus, not all the information can be repulsed; there are still some facts that will continue to be facts in the future.
Finally, the information which is considered as a fact is the base on which our knowledge can be advanced, and even disconfirm what is steadily believed in the future. No matter whether the information is right or wrong in fact, it has already been taken as rules or principles to interpreter the current problems around us. We need to trust such information. Only in this way, we can then develop our knowledge to deepen our analysis of those problems and to consequently find more phenomena which are not reconciled with the current 'fact'.(用用only的倒装吧,感觉好一些) The evidence can be easily found also in physics history. Without trusting Newton's theory, the science and technology could not develop high enough to detect the unexplainable events in late 19th century, which served the constitution of the theory of relativity and quantum.(牛顿说,他是站在巨人的肩膀上的) If we discard those so-called facts at the very beginning, we can not reach the extent to which the information is disproved and a new acceptance is gained.
In sum, it is true that much of the widely approved facts before are actually inaccurate. But not all of them are proven to be wrong. We need to trust this information, for it is still useful for us to cognize the world and acquire new knowledge.
总体而言,论述很清晰,例子也不错.但是语言稍嫌平淡,我觉得你认识的单词和你使用的单词有挺大的gap的,不如总结一下平时使用的普通的单词,好像very,many之类的,换成猛一点的单词.另外,长句太少了,背多些好句子吧. |
