Although science and technology will continue to improve, the most significant improvement for the quality of people’s lives have already taken place. Sample answer (356 words): Science discovers new ways to save lives, enjoy life, and help create life, while technology supplies science with the tools needed to do so. The development of science and technology in the past century has dramatically changed the way people live. Although it is difficult to predict exactly how they will impact our world in the future, one thing I am quite sure of is that they will continue to improve people’s quality of lives in much more significant ways than in the past. New breakthroughs in medical science will allow humans to finally eradicate diseases that have claimed hundreds of thousands of lives every year in the past decades. Although health and sanitary conditions of humans have improved considerably thanks to modern medical technologies such as immunization vaccines and organ transplant, a few diseases are still considered fatal at the present, including AIDS and cancer. However, research into genetics and stem cells have already made huge progress and will enable us to prevent the contraction of such diseases and successfully cure them if they occur. The above are just two examples of how developments in science and technology will continue to bring significant improvements to people’s lives. Indeed, there are countless other areas where the brightest ideas and innovations in science and technology are revolutionizing the way people live by making it healthier, better and more enjoyable.
