Put a Little Science in Your Life

        The main point of the reading is to confirm the useful of science in persons’ lives and suggest people to put the science in their lives. This article shows that it is much more convenient and efficiency for humans to do lots of things with science.  
       For the viewpoint “in teaching our students, we continually fail to activate rich opportunities for revealing the breathtaking vistas opened up by science, and instead focus on the need to gain competency with science’s underlying technical details” of author, I was surprising when I read it. There are too many scientists only want to research more and get more researching results to enrich their achievements. They have not cared about the details of their researching results and how this research can improve humans’ lives. This problem causes some experts considered the benefits of their results after few years later. If they can find the benefits and provide the sources, processes and results of their research early, there are too many things that would change in the past. For teaching students, the teachers always only want students to know the knowledge in the class and then get the nice grade in their tests and exams. Almost the majority of teachers have not taught to students how they can use these knowledge in their common lives. For example, in the Indian movie three idiots. When the higher grade students bully the freshman, although they have learnt the knowledge that taught by their teachers and professors, they have still not thought a way to resist higher grade students. Only the protagonist uses the plain electronic tool that made by himself to resist the higher students when they are peeing on his door. If their teachers taught them how to use the science into their lives, maybe they have resisted before many years ago. The author uses the letter to attract readers and make the essay become more interesting because readers would think about why the soldier wrote this letter and sent to the author to make him get an idea about writing this essay. And the letter can also let us understand the science is powerful in our common lives.
