Issue31  "Money spent on research is almost always a good investment, even when the results of that research are controversial."


Retrospect the history of human world we can easily find that any improvement on the research techniques will lead to tremendous changes of human life, which, in spite of the beneficial ones, also includes some detrimental effects. So I don’t agree with what the author says.  instead,  I think money should only be spent on the researches which can deal with the urgent problems confronted the people of today and also have a promising future.


Some people commonly think that money shouldn’t be invested in the research for it’s a longtime for the research to produce some valuable effects. In fact , spending money on the promising researches is always a good investment. The reasons for this as following: first , the only way for us to improve our life standard, be more efficient on our work, and have more happier leisure time is to do some research works on our current techniques. For example , the applying of new techniques such as computer, greatly change  all the aspects of human life. Second ,some research works can effectively deal with the bad effects of human activities on our environment. Such as researches on reducing the output of toxic fumes of mobiles and  factories, more efficiently using of natural resources, and protecting the endanger animals. These results may not have a direct valuable effect on human lives but it benefits our future development. Third , some researches on ethnic affairs and interconnectedness among different races can effectively eliminate many ethnic conflicts which often cause exacerbating effects on human world. So for our benefits we should invest enough money on the promising researches.

But it doesn’t mean that we should provide money to all kinds of researches especially for those controversial ones. For those researches even to some extent they can bring many useful ideas to the scientific development. However, as the unrecoverable destructive effects they may bring to our world, I think without the effective control of its   . we should constraint the controversial researches. Lets take the nuclear  research as an example. We know that applying of  this research can greatly reduce the consuming of some natural resources, but as its unpredictable results it may bring once it is out of control ,all the countries of the world have set laws to constrain on  researches on it. So as long as the defects of some researches still exist, we should be cautious to make the decision to invest money in them

Above all, scientific researches are two-edged sword, on the one hand they can improve our life standard, make the world more comfortable for us to live . on the other hand they can easily make the whole human beings extinct . so we should be wise enough to invest the money in the beneficial researches.
