As time has passed, technology has been grown. Technology had developed to a certain stage like read and mapping the brain. In “A computer that can ‘read’ your mind” and “Ethics and mapping the brain” has described the positive and negative effects on society. To minimize the potential unethical abuses of a technology like cloning, there are two ways to do so.
Cloning is a new technology which brought recently on duplicating organisms. This is a great approached in this medical field as this technology tends to solve the problem of organ transplant. However, someone will misuse and abuse this technology by cloning his own self to commit crime. To minimize the potential unethical abuses of this, precaution with more details need to be done on cloning. Since cloning is using the embryo or cell in the body, it should be dispose after using. This is to ensure no one can reuse or misuse for his own benefit.
Besides solving the problem of organ transplant, it is also a way to stop some endanger species of animal for getting extinct. With is technology, animal like tiger won’t need a mate to produce next generation. However, if all animals are depending cloning from getting extinct, then female and even male animal will lose its nature ability to reproduce next generation. To avoid this happen, control of cloning animal is needed. Planning and strategized cloning on animals which are going to extinct is needed so that those animals are still remaining their own abilities.
In conclusion, where there is a new technology has developed, it definite brings benefits to the human as it is design to make our life better however in the same time is also will bring us problem as we are altering the nature.

Yes, the relation between human and technology is just like that between soldier and sword; sword can not only protect soldier but also hurt soldier. The key is that soldier can use it skillfully and properly.
Yes, I agree with Vivian strongly. Since technologies have grown more and more complex, in order to use them correctly, we should be able to master both the knowledge of that technologies, and also the art of using them. Questions like who have the right to use them, when and where should we use them, to what degree should we use them are all necessarily important. These decisions might be strongly dependent on policies, humanism and current situations.
I think the way how people use technologies is very important for the society. Your language is getting better and better, jiayou~
