He said that British scientist Isaac Newton had unweaved(拆解) the rainbow. Newton explained how light forms a rainbow. For Keats, this explanation meant rainbows could

21、 no longer be beautiful.This is just one example of many. We often hear people talk of problems with science, or say that it is boring. Some people, like Keats, also say that science takes away the beauty of the world. But is this fair?First of all, science helps us get things done. We need to study

22、 science to produce certain kinds of people. After all, where would we be without engineers and doctors? When you are studying science in school, remember that one day you might be using that knowledge to build a bridge, or save a life. Next time you use your phone to send a message, remember that t

23、his is possible thanks to science. When Keats criticized(批判) Newton, the very paper he wrote on was created through science.Beyond helping society and getting things done, science also makes us think in a certain way. It asks us to believe things only through evidence. It teaches us never to trust o

24、ur assumptions(假设). It teaches us that sometimes, the truth is stranger than fiction.When you study science, remember what it means. Science has changed the world, and it can change you too.

28、hy Should We Study Science? D. The Things We Need to Do for ScienceCResearch proves that nearly half of the cancers diagnosed(诊断) in the UK each yearover 130,000 in total are caused by life choices that include smoking, drinking and eating the wrong things.Tobacco(烟草) is the biggest factor, causing

29、23% for cases in men and 15.6% in women, says the Cancer Research UK report. Next comes a lack of fresh fruit and vegetables in mens diets, while for women it is being overweight. Lead author of the report, Professor Max Parkin, said: “Many people believe cancer is related to fate(命运) or in the gene

30、s(基因), and that it depends on luck whether they get it or not. Looking at all the evidence, it is clear that around 40% of all cancers are caused by things we mostly have the power to change.”For men, the best advice appears to be: stop smoking, eat more fruit and vegetables and cut down on how much alcohol you drink. For women, again, the best advice is to stop smoking, but also watch your weight.In total, 14 lifestyle and environmental factors, such as where you live and the job you do, cause 134,000 cancers in the UK each year.
