Serendipity:The Accidental Scientists

A A paradox lies close to the heart of scientific discovery. If you know just what

you are looking for, finding it can hardly count as a discovery, since it was fully anticipated But if, on the other hand, you have no notion of what you are looking for, you cannot know when you have found it, and discovery, as such, is out of the question. In the philosophy of science, these extremes map onto the purist forms of deductivism and inductivism: In the former, the outcome is supposed to be logically contained in the premises you start with; in the latter, you are recommended to start with no expectations whatsoever and see what turns up.

B As in so many things, the ideal position is widely supposed to reside somewhere

in between these two impossible-to-realize extremes. You want to have a good enough idea of what you are looking for to be surprised when you find something else of value, and you want to be ignorant enough of your end point that you can entertain alternative outcomes. Scientific discovery should, therefore, have an accidental aspect, but not too much of one. Serendipity is a word that expresses a position something like that. It's a fascinating word, and the late Robert King Merton–‘the father of the sociology of science’–liked it well enough to compose its biography, assisted by the French cultural historian Elinor Barber.

C Serendipity means a ‘happy accident’ or ‘pleasant surprise’; specifically, the

accident of finding something good or useful without looking for it. The first noted use of ‘serendipity’ in the English language was by Horace Walpole (1717–1792). In a letter to Horace Mann (dated 28 January 1754) he said he formed it from the Persian fairy tale The Three Princes of Serendip, whose heroes ‘were always making discoveries, by accidents and sagacity, of things they were not in quest of’. The name stems from Serendip, an old name for Sri Lanka.

D Besides antiquarians, the other community that came to dwell on serendipity to

say something important about their practice was that of scientists. Many scientists, including the Harvard physiologist Walter Cannon and, later, the British immunologist Peter Medawar, liked to emphasize how much of scientific discovery was unplanned and even accidental. One of Cannon's favorite examples of such serendipity is Luigi Galvani's observation of the twitching of dissected frogs' legs, hanging from a copper wire, when they accidentally touched an iron railing, leading to the discovery of ‘galvanism’; another is Hans Christian Orsted's discovery of electromagnetism when he unintentionally brought a current-carrying wire parallel to a magnetic needle. The context in which scientific serendipity was most contested and had its greatest resonance was that connected with the idea of planned science. The serendipitists were not all inhabitants of academic ivory towers. Two of the great early-20th-century American pioneers of industrial research–Willis Whitney and Irving Langmuir, both of General Electric–made much play of serendipity, in the course of arguing against overly rigid research planning.

E Yet what Cannon and Medawar took as a benign method, other scientists found

incendiary To say that science had a significant serendipitous aspect was taken by some as dangerous denigration.If scientific discovery were really accidental, then what was the special basis of expert authority?

F In this connection, the aphorism of choice came from no less an authority on

scientific discovery than Louis Pasteur:"Chance favors the prepared mind."

Accidents may happen, and things may turn up unplanned and unforeseen, as one is looking for something else, but the ability to notice such events, to see their potential bearing and meaning, to exploit their occurrence and make constructive use of them–these are the results of systematic mental preparation. What seems like an accident is just another form of expertise. On closer inspection, it is insisted, accident dissolves into sagacity.

G In 1936, as a very young man, Merton wrote a seminal essay on "The

Unanticipated Consequences of Purposive Social Action." It is , he argued, the nature of social action that what one intends is rarely what one gets: Intending to provide resources for buttressing Christian religion, the natural philosophers of the Scientific Revolution laid the groundwork for secularism; people wanting to be alone with nature in Yosemite Valley wind up crowding one another. We just don't know enough–and we can never know enough–to ensure that the past is an adequate guide to the future: Uncertainty about outcomes, even of our best-laid plans, is endemic. All social action, including that undertaken with the best evidence and formulated according to the most rational criteria, is uncertain in its consequences.

剑桥雅思9阅读解析汇报test4

Passage 1 Question 1 答案: FALSE 关键词: husband, Nobel Prizes. 定位原文: 第1段第2、3句“...and was twice a winner…”……并两度问鼎诺贝尔奖:1903年,她同丈夫Pierre Curie以及Henri Becquerel被授予诺贝尔物理学奖,1911年她又独立获得诺贝尔化学奖。 解题思路: 题干要判断是否Marie Curie的丈夫与她共同获得了两项诺贝尔奖。原文陈述,她丈夫与她合着拿了一次,另外一次是她自己独立完成的。题干中的sole抵触于原文的both; 题干与原文陈述不一致。 Question 2 答案: NOT GIVEN 关键词: science, child 定位原文:第2段第1句“From childhood, Marie…”自幼年起,Marie就以惊人的记忆力而出名。她在16岁完成中等教育时获得了金牌。 解题思路:题干要判断Marie是否在还是个孩子时,就对科学产生了兴趣。原文陈述,Marie小时候记忆力惊人,并在16岁完成中等教育时获得了金牌,但是并没有提及她小时候是否对科学产生了兴趣。 Question 3 答案: TRUE 关键词: Sorbonne 定位原文:第2段最后一句“From her earnings she was…”有了这笔收入,她就能先资助姐姐Bronia 在巴黎学医,而Bronia也承诺,作为回报以后会帮助她继续完成学业。 解题思路:题干要判断Marie能够到巴黎大学学习,是否因为姐姐的经济资助。原文陈述姐姐确实是这么承诺的。但是如果有一些考生会纠结于姐姐虽承诺,但是是否兑现了诺言的话,可以再结合第三段第一句In 1891 this promise was fulfilled and Marie went to Paris and began to study at the Sorbonne. 1891年,Bronia兑现了她的承诺。Marie来到巴黎,开始在巴黎大学学习。由此题干与原文完全一致。 Question 4 答案: FALSE 关键词: when her children were born
