Swallows may have gone, but there is a time of return;willow trees may have
died back, but there is a time of regreening; But why should our days leave us,
never to return? I am an employee in a
company. I don’t know how many days I have been given to spend, but I do feel my
hands are getting empty. Life is always in such a rush that I have to make every
effort to finish a day's work to catch up with my time ship. Therefore, we
always pushed by time tide and we had to make improvement and progress.
Why
does the idea of progress loom so large in the modern world? Surely because
progress of a particular kind is actually taking place around usand is becoming
more and more manifest.Although mankind has undergone no general improvement in
intelligence or morality,it has made extraordinary progress in the accumulation
of knowledge.Knowledge began to increase as soon as the thoughts of one
individualcould be communicated to another by means of speech.With the invention
of writing,a great advance was made,for knowledge could then be not only
communicated but also stored.Libraries made education possible, and education in
its turn added to libraries:the growth of knowledge followed a kind of compound
interest law,which was greatly enhanced by the invention of printing.All this
was comparatively slow until, with the coming of science,the tempo was suddenly
raised.Then knowledge began to be accumulated according to a systematic plan.The
trickle became a stream;the stream has now become a torrent.Moreover, as soon as
new knowledge is acquired, it is now turned to practical account.What is called
“modern civilization” is not the result of a balanced development of all man's
nature,but of accumulated knowledge applied to practical life.The problem now
facing humanity is:What is going to be done with all this knowledge?As is so
often pointed out, knowledge is a two-edged weaponwhich can be used equally for
good or evil.It is now being used indifferently for both.Could any spectacle,
for instance, be more grimly weirdthan that of gunners using science to shatter
men's bodies while, close at hand,surgeons use it to restore them?We have to ask
ourselves very seriously what will happen if this twofold use of knowledge,with
its ever-increasing power, continues.
As the same with jaw crusher machinery
production, if we don't want to be eliminated, making progress continuously is
the only way to be outstanding in machinery field.
