问题     71.You know as well as I do that scientists who misuse their science and their knowledge in order to make nuclear arms, or poison gas, or to manipulate genes could always be found and can still be found. I have often wondered what is going on in the minds of such people. Do they not know what they are doing? Are they tempted in their well-paid jobs by the men behind the scenes? Or are they so obsessed with the hatred of an alien ideological concept or a foreign nation that they accept any means to kill their enemies, even though they are certainly aware that the whole world may be destroyed?
    72. Without doubt we can only agree with the Russian academician and biologist W. A. Engelhardt, who raised the question of the increasing responsibility of scholars and scientists in view of increasing global dangers, in the origin of which their creators, that is to say the scientists, have participated. Above all this reproach is directed towards the natural sciences. Nevertheless we are not able to and will not slow down the process of scientific progress.
    There is no way back into some illusive idyll. The people who are dangerous are those who, wherever they are in the world, dedicate their knowledge and their talents to killing or even to possible world war.  I think it is also a task for peace research to investigate the personality, the psyche, the motivations of scientists who believe in the possibility of solving the serious problems of humankind by technological means. A still typical example of such narrow-mindedness was and unfortunately still is the assumption that SDI ( Strategic Defense Initiative) could eliminate the danger of a nuclear strike against the USA.
    73. We must always be aware---to loosely cite the reflections of the English Nobel prize winner M. H. F. Wikins--that dealing with science does not necessarily turn us into better human beings. On the contrary, research work that corresponds with our ideals demands very much from us as human beings. We need a great sense of responsibility and much energy in order to conduct creative research work for peace, and we have to remain modest in order as scientists to maintain our humanity. [br]
选项
答案 毫无疑问，我们只能认同俄国院士兼生物学家恩格尔哈特。他提出了这一问题：学者和科学家所肩负的责任更加重大，因为全球的危险在不断加剧，全球危险的起源与危险的制造者们；即科学家有一定的关联。
