今日作文題:

Science and Human Life 科學(xué)和人類生活

提示句:

科學(xué)發(fā)展給人類生活帶來了很多變化;
科學(xué)發(fā)展也給人類帶來了很多災(zāi)難;
我們應(yīng)該使科學(xué)掌握在我們的控制下,使其為人類更好服務(wù)。

范文:

With the development of science, human life has changed tremendously. People living in the 18th or 19th centuries would never imagine the advanced household appliances we are now able to enjoy. Every aspect of our lives, for instance, in the field of medicine or agriculture has witnessed great improvements through the application of science.

隨著科學(xué)的發(fā)展,人類的生活發(fā)生了巨大的變化。18世紀(jì)和19世紀(jì)的人無法想象我們現(xiàn)在所享用的家用器具。我們生活的各個方面,比如醫(yī)藥、農(nóng)業(yè),都經(jīng)歷了科學(xué)所帶來的改善。

However, many people complained that science has also brought disasters to human life. Some evil scientists have used their knowledge to do some illegal things. They may use science for the creation of weapons to destroy thousands of lives in wars. They might also use their knowledge to produce drugs to make a lot of money for themselves.

然而,也有人抱怨科學(xué)帶給人類許多災(zāi)難。有些邪惡的科學(xué)家利用他們的知識做一些非法之事。他們用科學(xué)知識制造武器在戰(zhàn)爭中摧毀成千上百的生命;他們用其知識制造毒品賺取錢財。

Generally speaking, science has provided us with many valuable things. But if used wrongly, it can also lead to harm. We should try to keep science under control and put it to the best use of mankind.

總的來說,科學(xué)為我們帶來許多有價值的東西。但是一旦被錯誤地使用,它也能導(dǎo)致傷害。我們應(yīng)該使之置于我們控制之下,使其為人類發(fā)揮出最大作用。
