Directions:This task is the same as Task 1.The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 21to 25.
People who work in the fields of science and technology are not like other people.This can be frustrating (沮丧) to the non-technical people who have to deal with them.The secret to coping with technology-oriented people is to understand their motivations (动机).
All technical professionals share a common set of traits (特点).For convenience,I will focus primarily on engineers.It is safe to generalize about the other science and technology professions.
To the engineer,all matter in the universe can be placed into one of two categories:things that need to be fixed and things that will need to be fixed after you’ve had a few minutes to play with them.Engineers like to solve problems.If there are no problems handily available,they will create their own problems.Normal people don’t understand this concept; they believe that if it isn’t broken,don’t fix it.Engineers believe that if it isn’t broken,it doesn’t have enough features yet.
No engineer looks at a television remote control (遥控器) without wondering what it would take to turn it into a stun gun (眩晕枪).No engineer can take a shower without wondering if some sort of synthetic coating (人造膜) would make showering unnecessary.To the engineer,the world is a toy box full of defective (有缺陷的) or imperfect toys.
That’s a good thing for our society.
