GRE Issue高頻提綱——行為類
5. 個體與集體:
The media -- and society in general -- mistakenly expect an individual to speak for a particular group, whether or not that individual truly represents the views of the entire group.
It is primarily through our identification with social groups that we define ourselves.
One often hears about the need for individuals to take responsibility for their own lives. However, the conditions in which people find themselves have been largely established long before people become aware of them. Thus, the concept of personal responsibility is much more complicated and unrealistic than is often assumed.
It is always an individual who is the impetus for innovation; the details may be worked out by a team, but true innovation results from the enterprise and unique perception of an individual.
1. 在以前,確實革新的動力往往來自于個人,很多的發明都是源自于個人的努力,例如:愛迪生Edison發明的燈泡,給人們帶來了光明,比爾蓋茨Bill Gate寫的MS-DOS操作系統,使得使用計算機成為可能,瓦特Watt發明了蒸汽機帶來了工業革命Industrial Revolution等等。
2. 但是,隨著社會越來越復雜,不僅革新的細節需要來自于團隊,實質的革新也不能單單依靠個人努力,比如:對太空的探索,天文學,需要很多行業專家的支持,比如機械學家,設計設備,計算機工程師,分析數據,數學家,提供必要的計算方法等。先在的微軟和操作系統一個人是根本無法完成的。
3. 而且,個人的創新對于一個團隊的創新有很大的作用,因為團隊是由個人組成的,不同成員之間相互合作,共同努力,才能使一個團隊有很多成果。比如一個團隊每個人在一個不同的方面有所創新,結合起來可能取得很大的成就。
