Like
Snow, who has both scientists friends and literary colleagues, I do have two
different culture friends, too. Snow pointed out that scientists think
non-scientists are somehow not precise, and non-scientists believe that
scientists lack of imagination. Things tend to have two polar sides. And this
concept exists everywhere around us.
Like today, people enjoy the fashion outfit
design and the technology of iphone. Iphone combines the beauty of art and advance
of computer science. If Iphone only has the fancy outfit, and without advanced technique,
I do not believe people will still fall in love to it. Iphone is very proud of
its IOS system and keep updating the newer system to support the software.
There is an another system called Android. Android system also occupies half of
the smart phone market. Two systems take almost all the smart phone market, and
it is hard to say which one is over which. For example, Android system can be
customized easily, but IOS system needs to be jelly broken first. With some
minor difference, both systems are similar to each other mostly.
Two culture principle also exists in the
campus. Campus is separated to two different colleges: sciences and linguistics,
geographically. Although, the campus is halved to two different areas, students
are not isolated from one college to another. They make friends with different
colleges and they also cross and walk to another college.
I have never truly think about two
cultures. I only stay in my major department and do not have thoughts to walk
to another half of the campus. However, I think I should think about the fact
there is two culture and there might be third one. We should not limit
ourselves in one culture. Go out and see more.
