一：
Science and technology play an important role in people's daily lives. If you compare the life of people today with that in the past, it is easy to see that science and technology have done a great deal to improve the quality of people's lives. For example, computers have become our good friends: with the help of computers, people all over the world are able to share whatever information on the net, which shortens the distance between them. With the invention of radio and TV, people now can stay at home to get themselves informed about both domestic and international news.
But as a coin has two sides, technology can aisc have an negative influence upon people's lives. Now technology crimes are very common. What's more, the nuclear bomb threatens our human existence. So I think we must pay enough attention to the misuse of technology.
In spite of its disadvantages, we should admit that technology is very useful, Without science and technology, man's life would not be as convenient as today.

三：稍微再减去几句：
After the Second World War, a small scientific elite arose in developing countries such as India, Pakistan, Brazil, and Iraq who had been educated as scientists in the industrialized world. They thought that by pushing for Manhattan project-type enterprises in nuclear energy, electronics, pharmaceuticals, or space research they could leapfrog the dismally low level of development of their countries. India, for example, started a nuclear energy program that mobilized thousands of technicians and cost hundreds of millions of dollars but failed to meet power demands.
What those scientists and national leaders alike failed to understand was that development does not necessarily coincide with the possession of nuclear weapons or the capability to launch satellites. Rather, it requires modern agriculture, industrial systems, and education. The technical elite naïvely believed that spin-offs from their nuclear energy or space programs would somehow convert their countries to 20th-century industrialized states. Instead, there were heavy economic and political costs. In India, for example, such programs led to the development of nuclear weapons--which only encouraged Pakistan to do the same--while many basic human needs such as health and education were not given the support needed.

In my view, this scenario means that we in developing countries should not expect to follow the research model that led to the scientific enterprise of the United States and elsewhere. Rather, we need to adapt and develop technologies appropriate to our local circumstances, help strengthen education, and expand our roles as advisers in both government and industry. In this way, we can prevent the brain-drain that results when scientists are not in touch with the problems of their home countries or when they face indifference--and poor financial support--from their governments.
