Basic to any social development in the 20 years after 1980s in China is the deeply recognition of the people, which is the gradual process of thinking a lot of the existed value of the scientists and the artists. Scientist or artist, who is the domination, makes people difficult to choose. The purpose of my issue is to provide sufficient evidence, details and examples from various perspectives to substantiate effectively and efficiently that significance of scientist is grossly greater.

To live, the most basically living requirement is food, clothes and place to live, which their entire source is the intelligent inventions of the scientist but not those of artist. Undoubtedly, fantastic paintings of Georgia O’Keeffe, wonderful music of Bach, moving dramas of William Shakespeare and the like which are the top articles in the world, make us live a life that full of beauty, wonder and fantasy. However, when we feel hungry or cold, no thing including music, painting, drama and so on, is greater impact our mind than the fresh bread or the down jacket, not mention to the person who create the articles----the artist. At this time, the person who invent and improve the farming machine to make crops strongly grow, the oven to bake the delicious bread, the machine to produce cloth, the scientist, will be appreciated, praised and thanked to. Because we can not live without food and clothes but can the articles.

The articles and the artists are only the talking topics while we sitting in front of the furnace, having coffees after dinner and the like, not in the time we facing problems in working or in living. Once we meet a difficulty in doing something, the idea that solve the problem in a science method or look for help of scientists, spark at first in our mind. For example, a complex and confused math subject makes me extremely exhausted, the first and only thing I want is a calculator which can work it out by pressing a few buttons in seconds. Meanwhile, my favorite Bach, Mozart, Shakespeare and their articles are all out of my mind and have no help with it.

Therefore, the significance of the scientists among the contributions for human beings is more considerable than that of artists because the science has the superiority that the art can not surpass in the basic life of people.

Artists and scientists both make valuable contributions to our society. It may seem sometimes that artists are more valued. Thats because those artists who are famous make a lot of money. However, they are relatively few. The fact is that scientists are more valued. They get more respect from society for the work they do.

Artists reflect their times and their culture. A painter or a writer shows us in pictures and words what were like as a people. They record our culture for future generations. Actors and other performers, like singers and dancers, entertain us. They take our minds off our troubles, and remind us how beautiful and exciting our imaginations can be. Artists also help keep their societies mentally and emotionally healthy. For example, children that participate in the arts, such as painting or music, in school do better in their other studies. Art of all types is necessary to the human spirit.

The contributions scientists make to society are more obvious. They include the cars we drive, the computers we use at home and at work, and the appliances that help us cook our meals and clean our houses. All of these come from the ideas and hard work of scientists. Because of scientific discoveries, were living longer and more healthful lives. Scientists also contribute to the arts. Movies are the result of science. So are television, radio, and the recording of music on CDs.
