▶ Your Answer : 자꾸 붙여넣기하는데 박스밑으로내려가네요 ; 좀 쓰다보니 너무길어진감이 있네요 ㅜㅜ 영타가 빠르니, 쓰긴 다 쓰겟지만 너무많이써도 감점인지 걱정되요 ㅜㅜ | From the history of the mankind, science
always plays a pivotal role in leading the human beings. Only with science
knowledge, humans can be distinguished from other animals in that science is
the product of the most intricate version of intelligence. However people those
who have short-term sight usually argue that budget for non-practical science
is merely waste. In my opinion, on the contrary, investment of science by government
is duty, and this is truly needed for current and next human generations even
if the research is not relevant to current pragmatic field because following
two reasons; science can prepare the future and give direction to the current
human beings.
First
of all, government can prepare the future through investing the science,
including non-pragmatic field. Because nobody knows the future, even for after
1 second, humans cannot know what will happen, what disaster coming and what
items become more need it. Thus humans should give effort to predict the future
serious problems. On the other hand, science gives the rational scientific data
for predicting future problem. Thus governments of all nations allocate their
budget on science field. Since predicting future problems usually pertinent
with non-practical field of science, government should not ignore such area of
science. To illustrate this point, let’s think about the global earth problems,
especially tsunami. About two months ago, ruthless tsunami followed by
earthquake attack Japan. The damage of Japan is terrible. Uncountable number of
people died, and got fatal damage. However if Japan’s government had invested more
money to oceanography regarded as non-pragmatic field of science, they probably
could reduce the damage; at least they can save the tremendous number of lives.
This example shows why the government should not ignore some fields of science that
is not directly current society in that those field can play a crux role in
critical problems in the future.
Moreover investing such fields of science give
the future direction to the contemporary human beings. Science always plays a pioneer
role from the history of mankind. Thus the development of science means the progression
of the human beings. Besides, innovative ideas that can surpass the
contemporary society usually come from non-pragmatic field such as exploration
of universe and genetics. Let’s take the universe exploration as an example. One
of the famous and the most admirable company is NASA. However at initial period
of the company, it takes severe criticism from the public owing to it seems
totally non-rational and not related to that period of time. The US government,
however, perceived the importance of exploration of universe, and they invest
huge amount of money to the NASA. Afterword, NASA plays a leading role in the expansion
of human beings toward the mysterious region, cosmos. Since the expansion of
human beings from limited planet, earth to the universe gives invaluable
meaning to us, the success of NASA well substantiate the fact that investing
science field even looks unreasonable are necessary in that such field can give
the direction to innovative future.
All in all,
I firmly believed that government should invest to the field of science even if
it is not directly relevant to current human society and problem. This
futuristic investment may lead current society to prepare future problem as
well as to give direction toward future. The rationale behind this is that
without science human cannot foresee the future problems as well as have idea
to surpass the contemporary society. |
