Question

Speech on science and the furtur for 1 min of class 9

Answer 1

We cannot Say for certain whether science is a curse or a blessing. it is our use of science which would make science a curse or a Blessing . First let us see how man has used science for his good so that it has become a blessing for him. it is science that has provided modern man the life of ease, leisure and pleasure. It has brought within reach of the common man comforts and luxuries which were available in the past only to a privileged few. Science has invented marvelous machines. It has discovered energies which run these machines. The machines have taken drudgery out of work. Distance has been conquered. Modern means of transport and communication have made the word shrink in size. Men and things and news and views can go around the globe today with lightning speed. Man has already landed on the moon and a man­made satellite has just completed it’s voyage through the solar system. Our life has become healthier and longer. Modern hygiene, sanitation, medicine and surgery are conquering more and more physical and mental ills day by day. We now know and experience the joys of good health and longevity. Through the cinema and the video, the TV and the tape­reorder, science has worked wonders in the spheres of education and entertainment. Though we welcome these blessing of science, we have to consider the darker side of the picture also. Machines have led to unemployment. They have polluted water and atmosphere. Thy have caused noise pollution. Factories have led to slums where human beings live in squalor. Our moral and spiritual progress has failed to keep pace with our scientific progress. We have allowed science to master us instead of using it as our servant. Machines make us mechanical, deaden our sensibilities, stifle our creative talents, force mechanical regularity, uniformity and boredom upon us, increase our wants and desires, and tend to make us selfish, greedy and cruel. Geographical distance has, no doubt, vanished, but the gulf between the minds and hearts of man has widened. Machines have given man leisure, but man misuses it to get cheap and vulgar entertainment which destroys his physical and mental health. Again, science has put in our hands such fiendish weapons as the nuclear bomb, the guided missile and means of chemical and biological warfare. We are in danger of destroying ourselves with these monstrous means which, ironically, are our own creations. Rightly used science can bring heaven on earth. Wrongly used, it can trun this earth in to hell by destroying civilization.

Answer 2

    Friends, I wish to say a few words on Science and what we can expect from Science in future.

   Science is the study of laws of nature, properties and structure of materials, all kinds of living organisms in the Universe.  Science is meant for learning, discovering and inventing all for the better of all living organisms.  Science is the continuous effort of researchers in educational and sponsoring corporates.

   Using sciences Engineers, doctors and scientists make a number of gadgets and appliances for use at homes, offices or industries.  I am sure, we will not like to be born again in world without these.  Science makes our life easier, healthier and safer.  Long ago people lived in darkness in the night.  Now astronauts fly in space.

  When I say science, it means mathematical, physical, chemical, biological, social science, (science of economics) and medical sciences.   Medical science is making our life span longer and living healthier.  Use of resources and energy will hopefully become more efficient.  We will be able to eat high quality food and drink high quality water.

    Science introduces new technologies and helps more employment.  In future science will make the man do wonders like in fiction movies and books, that we can not imagine now.  There is a lot of work related to of our cells, DNA, atomic energy, semiconductors, nano technology etc.  Further, with an optimism that, in future, sciences mitigate its side-effects like pollution and global warming, and not produce destructive biological weapons,  I thank you all for listening to me attentively.
