The last millennium, the century to which we have said goodbye, has witnessed remarkable progress in every branch of Science and Technology. Our planet has become a global village due to the ongoing information revolution. The biological revolution has placed in our hands the power to alter the blue prints of life. Similarly, there has been spectacular progress in the perfection of weapons of mass destruction. However, the fact is that our socio-cultural and ethical evolution has not kept pace with the revolution in science.
Where has the revolution in science failed to impact?
- Socio-cultural and ethical evolution
- Removal of global poverty
- Total elimination of war
- Removal of socio-economic inequalities
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A - Socio-cultural and ethical evolution
The last sentence says “our socio-cultural and ethical evolution has not kept pace with the revolution in science”, so that is where science has failed to make its impact. The passage does not mention poverty, war or socio-economic inequality, so those options go beyond what it says.
