TOPIC: ISSUE69 - "Government should place few, if any, restrictions on scientific research and development"
WORDS: 497          TIME:         DATE:

The speaker claims that government should place few, if any, restrictions on scientific research and development. I tend to disagree with this claim. In my view, government had better refrain from interfering with the freedom of scientific enquiry， while it should restrict scientific research and development when it is necessary.

Firstly, sometimes a government should refrain from interfering with the freedom of scientific research. In a society controlled by an egregious government, scientific research and development are threatened by the government. For instance, in the time when Germany was controlled by Nazi Party, Einstein found it is hard to make any progress of his scientific research because he as a Jew was excluded in Germany. This scenario directly leads to more and more threatens to his life, let alone his scientific research. Ultimately, Einstein was forced to move to America, which has a relatively free academic environment. In short, a government has a duty to protect the freedom of scientific research and development even in a specific time.

Moreover, our society has seen so many significant progresses of scientific research and development. Consider Edison's invention of bulb which brings people all around the world light or Einstein's special and general theories of relativity revolutionized modern thought on the nature of space and time which formed a theoretical base for the exploitation of atomic energy. Scientific research and development brings us so many benefits that government should protect it from disturbing from many other factors.

However, the government also needs to restrict scientific research and development when it is necessary. And the reason is simple; government should organize scientists to solve the most urgent problems that concern society. Take Severe Acute Respiratory (SARS) as an example. If government did not make scientists be aware of the urgency of solving the problem of SARS, most scientists might only be engaged in those researches which they are interested in. In my view, solving immediate problems is more important than solving the anticipated problems of the future.

Or consider human clone technology, with the development of the human clone technology, cloning humans may become true in the future. Most governments strive to prevent from any efforts to legitimatize human clone technology. Although evidences reveal that some scientists approve human clone technology: once a newspaper reported that a scientist advocated to clone a Hitler and then killed him because of their intense animosity towards him; and other scientists may do research on cloning human for the reason that they want to help people who want to revive someone they love. Obviously, if human clone technology is widely used, there will undoubtedly be a disaster. In terms of this fact, government should restrict harmful research and development.

In conclusion, I disagree with the speaker's claim that government should place few, if any, restrictions on scientific research and development. In my view, government should refrain from disturbing scientific enquiry, while it is government's duty to restrict scientific research and development when it is necessary.

In short, a government has a duty to protect the freedom of scientific research and development even in a specific time.

Moreover, our society has seen so many significant progresses of scientific research and development. Consider Edison's invention of bulb which brings people all around the world light or Einstein's special and general theories of relativity revolutionized modern thought on the nature of space and time which formed a theoretical base for the exploitation of atomic energy. Scientific research and development brings us so many benefits that government should （not restrict on it but）protect it from disturbing from many other factors.(这样段落是不是能体现一种递进关系？政府控制会阻碍科学发展，科学发展对人类有益，所以，政府非但不应该控制还应该帮助科学发展)

However, the government also needs to restrict scientific research and development when it is necessary. And the reason is simple; government should organize scientists to solve the most urgent problems that concern society. Take Severe Acute Respiratory (SARS) as an example. If government did not make scientists be aware of the urgency of solving the problem of SARS, most scientists might only be engaged in those researches which they are interested in.

Or consider human clone technology, with the development of the human clone technology, cloning humans may become true in the future. Most governments strive to prevent from any efforts to legitimatize human clone technology.
