186T "Practicality is now our great idol, which all powers and talents must serve. Anything that is not obviously practical has little value in today's world."

It is a widely controversy that whether all attention of the government and intelligence focus on the practicality in today's world. Some people insist that practicality is a tremendous goal of today's society and anything not practical hardly has value now. In my angle of view , the speaker unfairly generalizes. Although I maintain that our society is of
substance and to some extant practicality is our major idol today, it is not to allege that anything that is not obviously practical has no sense. In a sense something of little practicality is valuable to attach attention to with an eye to the long-term effect.

Admittedly, It is involuntarily to chase a method of practicality as high rocketing technology and science serving our society hyle and material. Since human beings and the development of society rely on the practicality of the substance as the foundation. For instance, our basic necessities of life make full use of the practicality of anything that is demanded. Moreover, a great deal of inventions is driven by the practicality, especially in the field of science. For example, demanding of the massive and extensive operation contributes to the contrivance of the computer. Requirement of the high speed transportation is responsible for the birth of the first airplane . The conceiving of the World Wide Web(WWW)attributes to Desire of communicating with other people of different continent. From such point of view , It is a inevitable trend for people to focus on practicality.

However, practicality is not the only topic in the process of human civilization. Actually, the pursuit in religion, belief and ideality play a crucial role in impulsing the wheel of the history of humanity. To demonstrate this point clearly, here is an model. For the sake of  liberty of slaves of the whole America, Lincoln Abraham lead the war between states in order to emancipate the slaves which  strongly offended the practicalism at that time. Similarly, Polish astronomer Copernicus advanced the theory that the earth and other planets revolve around the sun and destroyed the practicality of the Ptolemaic system of astronomy. Without the ideality in pursuing the truth, the history of human beings may stagnate for period of time to some extent. Matin Luther King devote his life to preserving the Campaign of Civil Rights for afro-american in the United States which make enormously progress in eliminating the racialism. If he did not insist his ideality, the colour bar may still remain.

Although Something that is not practical may have no sense at present, such as exploring outer space. In fact, it is profitable in long views and have great significance to humanity.
For instance, preserving the wilderness areas where are accessible to few people may seem unnecessary. Nonetheless, people who get to the wilderness hardly influence the environment when the devil is blind, just imagine the exhaust and waste brought by the humanity which may cause the damage on the ecological balance. Furthermore, the noise and hunting may directly cause the death of the wild animals. Thus something with significant sense to humanity should not be underestimate in view of practicality.

To sum up, without practicality our society would be out of reality and rationality. Nevertheless, regarding the practicality as the only objective of today's society is of speciosity .Therefore, we should pay attention on practicality as well as on other target which also play important role in the future to our contemporary society.
