We live in a society which there is a lot of talk about science, but I would say _____1_____that there are not 5 percent of the people who are equipped with school, including college, to understand scientific reasoning. We are more ignorant of science as people _____2_____with comparable education in Western Europe.There are a lot of kids who know everything about computers—how to build
them, how to take them apart, and how to write programs for games. So if you ask _____3_____them to explain about the rinciples of physics that have gone into creating the _____4_____computer, you don’t have faintest idea. _____5_____The failure to understand science leads to such things like the neglect of human _____6_____creative power. It also takes rise to blurring of the distinction between science and _____7_____technology. Lots of people don’t differ between the two. Science is the production of _____8_____new knowledge that can be applied or not, and technology is the application of knowledge to the production of some products, machinery or the like. The two are really different, and people who have the faculty for one very seldom have a faculty for the others. _____9_____ Science in itself is harmless, more or less. But as soon as it can provide technology,it’s not necessarily harmful. No society has yet earned to forecast the consequences of _____10_____new technology, which can be enormous.
答案:
1.在which前加in,或?qū)hich改為where
在這里which引導(dǎo)限制性從句,修飾先行詞the society。in which 在從句中作狀語(yǔ),當(dāng)然也可以用關(guān)系副詞where引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句,并在從句中作狀語(yǔ),例如:Money is a bottomless sea, in which honor, conscience, and truth may be drowned.
2.將as 改為than
3.將So改為But或者However或者Nevertheless。因?yàn)檫@里上下文是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。
4.將about去掉。因?yàn)閑xplain是及物動(dòng)詞。
5.將you改為they
6.將like改為as。因?yàn)閟uch as 是固定搭配。
7.將takes改為gives。give rise to表示“引起,導(dǎo)致”之意。
8.將differ改為 distinguish。牽著表示“有區(qū)別”。后者表示“區(qū)分,找出……的差別。
9.將others改為other。這樣the other就和上文的one構(gòu)成固定搭配,表示在兩個(gè)中“一個(gè)……;另外一個(gè)……”
10.將harmful改為harmless,只有這樣才可以表達(dá)上下文的對(duì)比關(guān)系。
