------题目------
There is no such thing as purely objective observation. All observation is subjective; it is always guided by the observer's expectations or desires.
------正文------
While, I concede that no purely objective observation due to the limitation and psychological factors of human beings, I strongly disagree with the speaker's claim that all observation is subjective and guided by observer's desires, which goes against our experiences and might defeat the goal of observation--to reflect things objectively.

Few of us will deny that the expectation and limitation of observers will influence the accuracy of their work. After all it is certain kind of human instinct that drives us to expect the results of observations accord with our desire, which is actually rooted in the psychologically protective mechanism in human nature. It would be no surprise that scientist prefer the observation supporting their theories; politicians prefer the survey showing that their support at high, and businessmen overlook the phantom of depression, no matter how conspicuous it is. Moreover, some limitation also hamper further objective observations, and observers have to turn to logic and rational reasoning, which is by all means subjective. Consider the example of Hawkins, the greatest physicist in our age, develop his theory on the basis of reasoning, for the observation of his field can never be conducted or replayed.

However, "guided by desires" would be an inappropriate term for the process of observation, by claiming so we actually risk defeating the primary goal of observation and devolving observation into sheer imagination. After all, we draw our conclusion of observation by study the objective world around--that is the goal of observation is to learn about this objective world as accurate as possible. Any observers must and indeed take adhering to the objective things as their life-long job.Moreover, the rationale even applies to the conceived objective field --such as aesthetics. For had the observation in aesthetic field been subjective, there would be no such terminology as golden section, which is a relatively subjective criteria about what is beauty.

Finally, even a cursory glance into the human effort for a better observation, will undermine the speaker's claim that all the observation are subjective and guided by observer's expectations or desires. Had the observation been so arbitrary to pander to human expectations, it would be incredible for us to see significant effort observers had make, both technically and methodologically. Consider the telling examples in astronomy, to understand the world around us, we design more and more sophisticated telescopes and build numerous observatories. If we are guided by our desire of being the center of the universe and maintain the earth-centered illusion, none of these efforts would be done. Another telling example lies in the rapid development of statistics, which is intended to help us build a more accurate understanding about our society. In fact, though the application of statistics, observers are try hard to break down our illusion or blind expectation.

In final analysis, although, due to certain limitation and psychological factors, there exist no purely objective observation, a more accurate and objective observation is always the pursuit of any observer. Human being endeavor to understand the universe thoroughly by objective observation, rather than by pure imagination pandering their expectation or desires.

BODY 1我觉得人们理性的思考不算主观吧，。你的意思是不是把它算主观了？如果这样的话，你的例子就没有多少作用了,而且觉得你大段 只是提到了主观影响的可能性，没有例子证明确实影响了。】

BODY 2 BODY 3主要讲了主观危害以及其重要意义，好像可以作为题目的延伸，最好多证明一下观察者的主观或者客观观察的原因，这好像才是题目要我们做的。其实我想你只要加两句就行了：正是因为主观有缺陷，所以观察者会努力完善自己使自己客观。正是因为主观又又一定意义，所以观察者也会在一定程度上使自己主观，

BODY3 写得很好啊，我都没想到这么好的例子呢，不过一开始误解你的意思了，还以为你想说存在纯客观的事物呢，所以第一句可以写得再明白点。

总体觉得BODY2 BODY3 再点明一下符合题目的要求，就是很好的作文了。
