In a society where all aspects of our lives are dictated by scientific advances in technology, science is the essence of our existence. Without the vast advances made by chemists, physicists, biologists , geologists and other diligent scientists, our standards of living would decline, our flourishing wealthy nation might come to an economic depression, and our people would suffer from diseases that could not be cured. As a society we ignorantly take advantage of the amenities provided by science , yet our lives would be altered interminably without them.
Health care, one of the aspects of our society that separates us from our archaic ancestors, is founded exclusively on scientific discoveries and advances. Without the vaccines created by doctors , diseases such as polio, measles, hepatitis, and the flu would pose a threat to our citizens, for although some of these diseases may not be deadly, their side effects can be a vast detriment to an individual affected with the disease.
In addition, science has developed perhaps the most awe-inspiring vital invention in the history of the world, the computer. Without the presence of this machine our world could exist, but the conveniences brought into life by the computer are unparalleled.
Despite the greatness of present-day innovators and scientism and their revelations, it is requisite to examine the amenities of science that our culture so blatantly disregards. For instance, the light bulb, electricity, the telephone, running water, and the automobile are present-day staples of our society, however, they were not present until scientists discovered them.
Because of the contribution of scientists, our world is ever metamorphosing, and this metamorphosis economically and personally comprises our society, whether our society is cognizant of this or not.
In the first paragraph the author implies that we______.
选项
A、would not survive without science
B、take the amenities of science for granted
C、could have raised the standards of living with science
D、would be free of disease because of scientific with advances
答案
C
解析
第一段讲到没有了化学家,物理学家,生物学家等带来的科学技术的进展,our standards of living would decline。反过来理解就表示有了科学进步,我们的生活质量会有所提高。文中并没有提到A项“没有了科学我们就无法生存”,B项“认为科学带来的好处是理所当然的”以及C项“科学进步可以消除疾病”这些说法。
