顺便改改我的。谢谢~~
TOPIC: ISSUE119 - "When research priorities are being set for science, education, or any other area, the most important question to consider is: How many people's lives will be improved if the results are successful?"
It is undeniable that researches in various fields have greatly accelerated the improvement of people's lives, as we can see from the history since the Industrial Revolution, when all kinds of techniques were employed to increase production and sales. However, it is far from reasonable to say that the priority of all kinds of researches is to enhance people's lives.
(从工业革命以来,各个领域的研究成果大大促进了生产销售,但因此说一切研究最先都应考虑其能在多大程度上提高人们的生活质量却有失偏颇)
The measure of man's living standards is how much they are spiritually rather than materially satisfied. There are people in poverty who find unfailing happiness and people in wealth who are afflicted by all kinds of troubles.
(例子很好啊)As different people have different life ideals, most researches can do but little, except that they are able to promote material abundance. Compared with people a century ago, people today are enjoying the conveniences of all kinds of goods, equipments and services, which are the result of researches in all kinds of realms such as science, technology, education, economy and so on. As long as people can not form a happy mind, such an abundance will not suffice for their happy life. Some may argue that psychologists, with their discoveries, give advice to people for their mental health, but most people do not need them because not so many of them are mentally ill.
(生活的标准是精神上的满足而非物质上的满足,而这些研究大多除了提供物质满足外,根本不能提供精神满足)【虽然我不支持你的观点,但是我开始清零自己以前的思想,重读你的文章~~】
Research, whatever the subject, for the sake of significance, should be dedicated to the pursuit of truth, which treats the nature of man and the world. Ever since the time of ancient Greece, philosophers have been thinking about truth. It is from philosophy that science generated, and because of scientific methods that all researches are possible. I barely see any original intents that are for the betterment of people’s lives when Aristotle did his classifications, when Newton thought over the fall of an apple, when Einstein imagined what would happen if man travelled at light speed. They had no other purposes than pursuing the truth, but as a result, people’s lives are most greatly improved, whether directly or indirectly, by their discoveries.(无论什么主题的研究,要想具有重大意义,必须用于追求真理)(说理建议增多一点,因为你的观点很独特,所以应该用更严密的理由来说服大家)
There are of course practical researches that are intended to improve efficiency in producing, managing, educating and so on, but as any research is a two-edged weapon, which can be equally used to do both good and bad, there’s no precedence of its positive side. Such a situation is likely to happen that during a war, while soldiers are being injured or killed by the inventions which man boasts of, surgeons are treating them with techniques which are the fruit of researches in their own field. In modern times, researchers maybe should pay more attention to the possible destruction rather than the benefits of their researches, given that it’s more difficult to build than to destroy.
(对于实际的研究,则应考虑其负面影响:建设总比破坏来得难)这段应该加强研究应该关注真理会比较好点吧,不要再发散了~
Admittedly, it is one of the most important applications of researches to improve people's lives, but taking the application for the essence is inconvincible. The progress of people’s lives depends not so much on such researches as on sticking to their own appropriate way of life. What’s more? If we take a closer look at what prevents people from living in peace and without depression, we can find that it is the high pace and fierce competition that are subsequent to the headway in researching.
(承认提高生活质量是研究的重要应用之一,但这不是研究的本质。人的生活质量的提高,更多的依赖于选择一种适于们们自己的生活。更进一步指出:现代社会的高节奏和激剧的竞争也由这些研究成果所致)了,欢迎大家指正~~
因为你开头就说“但因此说一切研究最先都应考虑其能在多大程度上提高人们的生活质量却有失偏颇”,你所指的生活质量的提高大多数是精神上的提高,而研究只能提高物质上的,所以你觉得研究的本质应该是追求真理。但是结尾段却写到了研究带来的后果,好像偏了点题~~而且观点的陈述不够,词汇和句法非常好,看得出功底很好~我很欣赏你看事物独特的角度,有自己的风格,有时间我们BS下哈~继续努力~
