Text I – questions 1 through 4
1 We are tempted to assume that technological progress is
real progress and that material success is the criterion of
civilization. If the Eastern peoples become fascinated by
4 machines and techniques and use them, as Western nations do,
to build huge industrial organizations, large military
establishments, they will get involved in power politics as it is
7 currently happening. Scientific and technological civilization
brings great opportunities and great rewards but also great risks
and temptations. The problem facing us is a universal one. Both
10 East and West are threatened with the same danger and face the
same destiny. Science and technology are neither good nor bad.
They are not to be tabooed but tamed and assigned their proper
13 place. They become dangerous only if they become idols.
From that dim and distant date when a human creature
struck out the first flint instrument, through all the ages until
16 now, when man belts the globe with computers and can
annihilate whole nations with bombs from the sky, the course of
human life has been a career of material conquest and
19 mechanical achievement. The pen, the brush, the wheel, the
spade, the plough, the boat, the lever, the locomotive and the
internal combustion engine form a continuous ascent. Nuclear
22 fission is not anything new in principle from, say, the discovery
of the fire. The machine is an expression of the victory of mind
over matter. It is not an end in itself. It is a tool devised by man
25 to give practical effect to his ideals. If our ideals are wrong, the
fault is in ourselves, not in the machines. If our ideals are right,
machines could be used to remove injustice, improve the lot of
28 mankind, and help the spirit to grow into maturity. There is
nothing in a motor-car which requires us to drive so fast to kill
innocent pedestrians. There is nothing in a plane, which compels
31 us to drop bombs on fellow men. There is nothing wrong with
machines as such. If they turn out to be evil, it is because we are
evil.
J. V. Skinner. Reading and reasoning (with adaptations).
It can be gathered from text I that
men have always been cautious about the use of technological progress.
