英语翻译
Technology changes so rapidly that no scientist or engineer can keep up with his own field,much less with technology in general.
For an idea of what is to come----in magnitude if not in specifics----look to the past.In the past ninety years,the world has shrunk,while human experience has expanded almost beyond the recognition of those who grew up in our grandparents' generation.
In transportation and communications,the changes have been even more pronounced.
In 1945,when the first atomic bomb fused the sand of Alamogordo,New Mexico,the shot was not heard around the world; rumors of a massive explosion in the desert were easily contained.Only a half century later,someone born in Massachusetts is more likely than not to attend college in Chicago,find a job in Seattle,vacation in Mexico,and retire in Florida.
技术革新如此迅速以至于没有那个科学家或工程师能够跟的上他自己所在的领域,更别说普遍的技术.
关于即将到来的变化----如果不看特殊领域只看数量级的话----回顾一下历史就知道.在过去的90年里,世界缩小了,人类积攒的经验却扩张到超出了成长在爷爷那一辈人的认识.
在运输和通讯方面,变化更是让人惊骇.
1945年,当第一枚原子弹融化新墨西哥的阿拉莫戈多的沙地的时候,世界却没有听到这爆炸的声音,关于大爆炸的传闻被轻易地封锁了.仅仅半个世纪后,在马萨诸塞州出生的人更可能去芝加哥上大学,去西雅图找工作,去墨西哥度假,在佛罗里达退休.
