【题目】The twentieth century saw greater changes than any century before: changes for the better, changes for the worse; changes that brought a lot of benefits to human beings, changes that p1man in danger.

Scientific research in physics and biology has vastly broadened our views. It has given us a deeper k3 of the structure of matter and of the universe; it has brought us a better understanding of the nature of life a4 of its continuous development. Technology in the application of science has made big advances that have benefited us in n5 every part of life.

The continuation (持续) of such activities in the twenty-first century will result i6 even greater advantages to human beings: in pure science — a wider and deeper knowledge in all fields of learning; in applied science — a m7 reasonable sharing of material benefits, and better protection of the environment.

The application of science and technology to the development and production of weapons of mass destruction has created a real danger to the continued existence of the human race on this planet.
