Задание 1. Прочитайте и переведите текст:
The nature of technological research
A scientist tends to construct a highly simplified model of the system investigated; if possible leaving out everything that can disturb the relations to be studied. This is needed establish fundamental relations.
A technologist tries to keep closer to the real world. He preferably constructs a model that’s, say, ten times as complicated as a scientist's model. This is required to obtain results that can be put into practice. The model may still be a considerable oversimplification, but comprehensive knowledge of the system is needed to develop a model that makes sense.
Naturally, a technologist makes use of results obtained by scientists. In many cases, close cooperation with “pure” scientists will give the best results. It should also be realized that the system is often so complicated that complete and quantitative relations cannot be obtained. This means that further along the line from fundamental research to product development, trial and error methods may still have to be applied. Nevertheless, even in such a case, the research done may be very beneficial, because it allows to greatly reduce the number of trials that would lead to error.
Unfortunately, many of the results obtained in food research are unreliable. In the author's experience, there are two main types of failures occurring:
Failures of the first kind are typically made by workers with a technological background. They generally know the system well, but they may lack scientific background. The observations may be correct, but the interpretation is not. This
problem is aggravated because human beings always want to explain observations and organize them in a kind of theoretical framework. This readily leads to further errors and to new research that eventually will turn out to be futile.
Failures of the second kind are typically made by workers with a background in fundamental science who does not know the system studied, nor the processes applied to it. They tend to apply some theory or method of investigation, without regarding the specific properties and reactions of the system. A case in point is the specialist in a certain analytical technique who is convinced that its application to the problem at hand will lead to a solution. In fact, it rarely does.
The solution, i.e. the way to prevent making these two kinds of failure, is obvious: let scientists and technologists cooperate in research. Of course, scientists can learn about the system and about the constraints that it imposes on the research that can usefully be done; and technologists can learn about fundamental aspects and about the constraints they impose on the validity of conclusions. The best manner in which they learn these things is by mutual cooperation.
