EDUCATIONAL NOTE
In 1949, an American captain, Edward A. Murphy, was working on a project
for the military and, because of many setbacks, said, “If anything can go
wrong, it will.” This “law” (like Newton’s law) became known worldwide
as “Murphy’s law,” and since then, many more “laws” have been formulated
on every subject imaginable. For example, “When I am early, the boss is late,
but when I am late, the boss is early”; “If you try to satisfy everyone,
somebody will be dissatisfied”; and “Nothing is as easy as it looks.”

6.29 SCIENCE IN THE FUTURE
Science and technology created modern society. However, some people
think that scientists will no longer create anything from now on. What is
your opinion?
Note: The words in parentheses are more advanced alternatives.
INTRODUCTION
All of us would like to know what the future has in store for us. This might
become possible in the future, as will be shown in this essay, in terms of
computers, satellites, and cloning. (36 words)
BODY
First, with the help of computers, tasks that were impossible in the past can
now be done relatively easily and quickly. This is opening up more and more
possibilities for scientists. For example, with the development of the electron
microscope, scientists can now observe and study the individual parts of a
single cell with ease.
Second, satellites and space technology have made the impossible possible.
For instance, by placing a homing device on an animal or bird, it can be
followed wherever it goes, and the migratory routes of birds like penguins or
storks can be followed constantly.
Lastly, scientists are breaking new ground (making new discoveries) every
day. They are moving the borders of our knowledge further and further afield.
In addition, it seems that scientists are becoming braver in moving into
unknown areas and territories. Cloning, for example, is fast becoming a
reality. In many other fields, there are developments that we, in our wildest
dreams, would not have thought possible a few years ago. At the moment,
there is no indication that the present situation will change in the near future.

CONCLUSION

---

To summarize, I have had a look at computers, satellites, and cloning as
examples of the present situation. So it can be seen, in conclusion, that the
opposite of the above statement would be truer. Scientists will be able to
create almost anything in the future. (46 words) (Total words: 263)
