作文
As the society developed, we care more about if scholars and reseachers can contribute to the world than care about weather they pursue their own interests.however,in my view we should not do so.And I will not stop believing that a man should follow his own interest when they do their reseaching.
There are several reasons why i agree scholars and researchers should do study under their intrests even it seems unacceptable by us.To begin with,Confucius had said "Knowing a thing is not as good as interest of it while fondness of it ranks the best"。I t means interst is the best teacher,likewise interest can generat enthusiasm which as we all know can help them through difficulties. In the next stage,here is a good example that can support my reasons. Thuck Thacker ,2011 Turing Award winner,show great intersts in computer.Because of the intersts ,he worked so hard that become one of the inventors of Ether LAN.He changed the world by pursue his intersts. It is ture that scholars and researchers should seek their individuality, but everything has tow aspect ,when a man pursue his intersts excessively,he maybe go far from the right and become self-will which can make him be separated from the outside world.Then,alienated from reality,he will not contribute to the society.
However,when scholars and resarchers ignore their intersts and choose research area which is just needed by the society ,they usually cannot make a big diffience .Because they come to the area with a unhappy feeling.So they will not concentrate on their research.Then do a not good work. what a worse is that they can not get achievement..To illustrate this point ,here is a case that is very persuasive. Nowadays academic fraud become more and more familiar.The crux of the matter is because there is no interest to adhere to the study.So plagiarism,
share research results of others, or forgery, modification of data, academic
corruption are born . For one thing they do not pay because of their dislike,for another they what to be successful quickly because of the utilitarian society. In fact, if they enjoy the process ,and don't care the consequence,there will be few academic fraud. Nonetheless,sometimes
in order to meet the societal needs,they should call for a balace in which there are both intersts and responsibility.
