effects does modern science and technology exert on(upon)our society and our lives?PLS list these effects.2.What are the advantages and problems that science brings to mankind.Whats your opinion?3.How can we human beings make good use of modern science and technology for ourselves?Discussion:Science&technology11ImpactofScience&TechnologyIn this world of change and complexity,the need for high-tech is of greatest importance with new theories emerging and the wide application of inventions such as telephone,TV,computer,etc.benefiting man in many fields.CommerceandeconomyEducationandcultureDailylife/changeinlifestyleSportsandentertainmentHealthcareNatureandenvironmentNationaldefense12Merits:First of all,the access to information may be the most critical requirement of all people,and technology has facilitated the sharing of information and the storage and delivery of information,thus making more information available to more people.change life styles,ideas and human relationshipsimprove life quality with the application of new inventions or the use of new medicine enhance the major social productivitydevelop the civilization and enable humans to get away from ignorance provide a comfortable,convenient and easier life for human being in the modern worldImpactofScience&Technology13Drawbacks:Some take advantage of high-tech to seek ill-gotten gains(不义之财)and commit crimes alienate people from the real world(e.g.Internet)ill-disposed technology will result in disasters and pose a threat to world peace(e.g.WMDs)ImpactofScience&Technology14Writing:Sample(三段式三段式)Modern science and technology have bad as well as good effects on our society.Many scientific and technological advances have dramatically improved human life.For example,the latest advances in biological research have cured major life-threatening diseases such as tuberculosis and polio,etc.Communication satellites keep countries all over the world in touch with each other.15On the other hand,some scientific and technological developments have endangered human life.Take pollution for example.The pollution of our oceans is a threat to human food supplies,and the pollution of our atmosphere is a threat to human health.In short,everything has two sides/every coin has its two sides.The most important thing is that we should make good use of the scientific and technological advances for the benefit of the human society.Written assignment:On Automobile1.The benefits the car/Internet has brought us.2.The problem it has caused to us.3.Possible solutions/Your attitude.16Formulated(套式的套式的)conclusion:Weighing the merits/benefits and demerits/defects of high-tech,I am inclined to believe that the conveniences/benefits of science and technology far outweigh the problems produced by high-tech to serve.The best policy is to regulate/make full use of modern science and technology appropriately so as to maximize its advantages and minimize its disadvantages.17Associationmap:PLSnameeachpartofacar.Whatmakeofcarwouldyouliketodrive?AsIseeit,yourewhatyoueatorwhatyouwrite?Butdoyouagree“yourewhatyoudrive”?Whyandwhynot?Post-reading:OralActivities18PartsofACar:boothubcaptiredoorwingindicatorfoglightheadlightbumpersidelightbonnetwindscreenwindscreenwipersunroofnumberplate19wingmirrordoorhandlepetrolcapmudflaprear/taillightexhaustpipereflectorbrakelightreversinglightrearwindowaerialsunroofPartsofACar:20steeringwheelgearshifthandbrakeclutchbrakeacceleratorseatdashboardairventhi-fisteeringcolumninsidesafetybelt21roadRoads&Streets:streeta
