As the advent of the new era of science and technology, the society has changed profoundly, not only staying in science and technology itself, but also strentching to social customs and ethics. However, is the infulence far-reaching enough to determine these social customs and ethics?

Taking back into the hitstory, we cannot deny the astronomical influences technologies have brought to social customs. The invention of computer and web make our horizon more broadened and enable us informed of the latest news; The appearance of telephone frees us of the burdensome ceremony during festival days, only asking for moving our fingers and sending text messages to express our wishes instead; the globalization following the technologies bring in foreign festivals, thus diminishing the intensity of previous local festival. For example, similar to Christmas day in the United States, luner spring festival ranks top in China when referring to festivals. While rather than luner spring festival, Chinese have inclined to celebrate Christmas enthusiastically recently.

Also, the development of technologies have challenged social ethics in many aspects greatly. Admittedly, more sophisticated medical equipment and technology allow for safer diagnosis and treatment. While, they bring about a series of trouble to social ethics too. The hottest issue is the application of artificial procreation reproduction technique. No one could give a definite answer to these questions: does the child, who is the result of this technique, own the right to search for his/her biological father? Should germ cell and sperm take to be highly commercialized? Should those gentlmen who have donated their sperm take the responsibility to this kind of children? Prabably, things we could not accept today will become quotidian tomorrow. Simiar situation also takes place in other field. For example, appearing to help students finish their task professedly, those gunman nets actually run counter to honesty, which social ethics have been claiming.

On the other hand, social customs and ethics influence the development of technologies too. The tremondous contradiction between human beings and human clone fails the real naissance of human clone; the pursuit of honesty enables the invention of the dishonorable behavior inspecting system; the environmental ethic gives birth to eco-friendly car and zero-emission refrigeratory. From this prospective, it is hard to say technology plays a determining role in social customs and ethics.

In sum, undoubtedly, technologies influence social customs and ethics profoundly. But we could not insist techonologies play the determining role. What’s more, social customs and ethics also influence techonologies and they should guide the correct direction when techonologies are developing.

"Technologies not only influence but actually determine social customs and ethics."
  
技术不仅仅影响而且实际上是决定了社会传统和道德规范。
  

1.        确实影响了,传统方面:通信,短信拜年,全球化的影响使得国外的节日被引进,Local的东西被弱化,圣诞节与农历春节;
2.        道德规范方面:人工辅助生殖技术的应用,枪手网,
3.        社会传统和道德规范反过来影响了技术的发展,克隆人,学位论文学术不端行为检测系统, 汽车冰箱等趋向于环保型的。
总结:确实影响了,但不是决定,反过来传统道德应更好的引导技术的发展。

As the advent of the new era of science and technology, the society has changed profoundly, not only staying in science and technology itself, but also strentching (stretching) to social customs and ethics. However, is the infulence (influence) far-reaching enough to determine these social customs and ethics?

Taking back into the hitstory
(history) [take back into sth
能表示回顾吗?建议使用look back on sth] , we cannot deny the astronomical influences technologies have brought to social customs. The invention of computer and web make our horizon (horizons 表示眼界时,用复数形式) more broadened (我觉得make our horizons more broad 就可以表示“使我们的视野更广”了,或者The invention of computer and web broaden our horizons and enable …两个动词并列会不会更顺畅些?) and enable us informed of the latest news; The (the,前面是分号) appearance of telephone frees us of the burdensome ceremony during festival days (节日的繁重礼仪,这个含义我觉得可能不是很被认同,改为“帮助我们问候身在远方的亲友”你觉得是不是好点:the appearance of telephone makes it possible to greet friends far away from us), only asking for moving our fingers and sending text messages to express our wishes instead (这小半句删去); the globalization following the technologies bring in foreign festivals, thus diminishing the intensity of previous local festival. For example, similar to Christmas day in the United States, luner (农历 lunar; 春节要不要大写啊?
Spring Festival) spring festival ranks top in China when referring to festivals. While rather than luner spring festival, Chinese have inclined to celebrate Christmas enthusiastically recently.

Also, the development of technologies have (
主语是development, has) challenged social ethics in many aspects greatly. Admittedly, more sophisticated medical equipment and technology allow for (allow for 在这里的意思对吗?) safer diagnosis and treatment. While (however怎么样?), they bring about a series of trouble to social ethics too. The hottest issue is the application of artificial procreation reproduction technique. No one could give a definite answer to these questions: does the child, who is the result of this technique, own the right to search for his/her biological father? Should germ cell and sperm take to be highly commercialized (这句什么意思) ? Should those gentlmen (gentlemen) who have donated their sperm take the responsibility to this kind of children? Prabably (probably), things we could not accept today will become quotidian tomorrow. Simiar (similar) situation also takes place in other field (fields). For example, appearing to help students finish their task professedly, those gunman nets actually run counter to honesty, which social ethics have been claiming.

On the other hand, social customs and ethics influence the development of technologies too. The tremondous
(tremendous) contradiction between human beings and human clone fails the real naissance of human clone; the pursuit of honesty enables the invention of the dishonorable behavior inspecting system; the environmental ethic gives birth to eco-friendly car and zero-emission refrigeratory (

. From this prospective, it is hard to say technology plays a determining role in social customs and ethics.

(technologies) play the determining role. What’s more, social customs and ethics also influence techonologies (technologies) and they should guide the correct direction when techonologies (technologies) are developing.

As the advent of the new era of science and technology, the society has changed profoundly, not only staying in science and technology itself, but also strentching to social customs and ethics(这里分词是作为伴随状语吗?用法对吗——主语是否一致?). However, is the infulence far-reaching enough to determine these social customs and ethics? 按照小宝的观点,开篇最好表明立场,你的TS?

Taking back into the hitstory, we cannot deny the astronomical influences technologies have brought to social customs(好,学习了). The invention of computer and web make our horizon more broadened and enable us informed of the latest news; The appearance of telephone(cell phone?) frees us of the burdensome ceremony during festival days, only asking for moving our fingers and sending text messages to express our wishes instead; the globalization following the technologies bring in foreign festivals, thus diminishing the intensity of previous local festival. For example, similar to Christmas day in the United States, luner spring festival ranks top in China when referring to festivals. While rather than luner spring festival, Chinese have inclined to celebrate Christmas enthusiastically recently.(这个例子没大看懂,论述了技术对社会习俗吗,有说服力否?)

Also, the development of technologies have challenged social ethics in many aspects greatly. Admittedly, more sophisticated medical equipment and technology allow for safer diagnosis and treatment. While, they bring about a series of trouble to social ethics too. The hottest issue is the application of artificial procreation reproduction technique. No one could give a definite answer to these questions: does the child, who is the result of this technique, own the right to search for his/her biological father? Should germ cell and sperm take to be highly commercialized? Should those gentlmen who have donated their sperm take the responsibility to this kind of children? Prabably, things we could not accept today will become quotidian tomorrow. Simiar situation also takes place in other field. For example, appearing to help students finish their task professedly, those gunman nets actually run counter to honesty, which social ethics have been claiming(这个定语从句用得让我confused,能解释一下吗).

On the other hand, social customs and ethics influence the development of technologies too. The tremondous contradiction between human beings and human clone fails the real naissance of human clone; the pursuit of honesty enables the invention of the dishonorable behavior inspecting system; the environmental ethic gives birth to eco-friendly car and zero-emission refrigeratory(好例子啊,有说服力!). From this prospective, it is hard to say technology plays a determining role in social customs and ethics.

In sum, undoubtedly, technologies influence social customs and ethics profoundly. But we could not insist techonologies play the determining role. What’s more, social customs and ethics also influence techonologies and they should guide the correct direction when techonologies are developing.
