问答题 “未来”对每一个人都具有无可抵抗的诱惑力,这是一个充满了“向前” “美丽”和“憧憬”意向的词语,因为每个人都向往改变和更加美好的生活,于是人们都愿意和猜测未来。 也许对于生活在科学门槛前面的中国人来说,科学仍然神秘而美丽,明艳照人。我们还渴望信息时代的生活,我们还渴望生物工程带来长寿的健康,我们还渴望坐在宇宙飞船去往火星的路上看繁星点点……但是如果我们在科学还不是那么发达的时候没有勇气反思的话,我们将有可能直接地与未来的邪恶狭路相逢。那时要面对的并不是别的,而是《圣经》上的末日审判。
【正确答案】正确答案: The word "future" loaded with such associations as "progress", "beauty" and "expectation" has an irresistible temptation for everybody. Since it is human nature to long for changes of their circumstances and for a better life, they invariably want to calculate and predict the future. Some may argue that for the Chinese, if is nothing short of senseless worrying, for we still have a long way to go before we attain material affluence, while puzzling over the mysteriousness, glamour and virtue of science upon its threshold. We make much of life in this information era, hoping that bio-engineering will bring us good health and longevity. How exhilarating it would be, we marvel, to travel to Mars in a spaceship, enjoying the sight of twinkling stars all the was... but, if courage should fail us to examine science critically before it is too late, we will have to pay dearly for that negligence someday when we meet the Evil of the Future down a narrow path, facing the final judgment as foretold in the Bible.
