Warming Up | Q 3 | Page 89 
What’s the difference between science and technology? Discuss in pairs and tell your 
answer to the class. 
 
SOLUTION 
We generally assume that science and technology mean almost the same thing. 
However, there is a difference. The goal of science is the pursuit of knowledge for its 
own sake while the goal of technology is to create products that solve problems and 
improve human life. Simply put, technology is the practical application of science. 
Warming Up | Q 4 | Page 89 
Do you think that science and faith are both important in our lives? Why? Discuss in 
your group and give a small presentation in front of the class. 
 
SOLUTION 
Yes, both science and faith are important in our lives. There is no contradiction between 
the two. Both genuinely seek the truth. Science explores the truth about the body and 
the physical world. Faith introspects on the nature of the soul. Science helps us 
understand the physical structure of the universe, while faith deals with human values 
and morals. Both complement each other. In the words of Einstein. Science without 
religion is lame; religion without science is blind. 
Warming Up | Q 5 | Page 89 
We need science 
We need faith 
 
 
SOLUTION 
We need science: 
To understand the latest technology to know about the physical world and our universe 
We need faith: 
To enable our spirit to soar high to have hope and to believe in a reason for our 
existence
