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 principles 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 new technology, which can be enormous._____10

答案詳解:

1. 在 which 前加 in，或?qū)?which 改為 where

在這里which引導限制性從句,修飾先行詞the society。in which 在從句中作狀語,當然也可以用關(guān)系副詞where引導定語從句,并在從句中作狀語,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

因為這里上下文是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。

4. 將 about 去掉

因為explain是及物動詞。

5. 將 you 改為 they

6. 將 like 改為 as

因為such as 是固定搭配。

7. 將 takes 改為 gives

give rise to表示“引起，導致”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”。
