Science (from Latin scientia, meaning "knowledge") is an enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the world. An older and closely related meaning still in use today is that of Aristotle for whom scientific knowledge was a body of reliable knowledge that can be logically and rationally explained. Since classical antiquity science as a type of knowledge was closely linked to philosophy. In the early modern era the words "science" and "philosophy" were sometimes used interchangeably in the English language. By the 17th century, natural philosophy (which is today called "natural science") had begun to be considered separately from «philosophy» in general, while, "science" continued to be used in a broad sense denoting reliable knowledge about a topic, in the same way it is still used in modern terms such as library science. However, in modern use, "science" is still mainly treated as synonymous with 'natural and physical science', and thus restricted to those branches of study that relate to the phenomena of the material universe and their laws, sometimes with implied exclusion of pure mathematics. This is now the dominant sense in ordinary use. The word "science" became increasingly associated with the disciplined study of physics, chemistry, geology and biology. This sometimes left the study of human thought and society in a linguistic limbo, which was resolved by classifying these areas of academic study as social science. In its turn the term «humanities» or «arts» refers to the subjects of study that are concerned with the way people think and behave, for example literature, language, history and philosophy (as it understood nowadays Science is often distinguished from other domains of human culture by its progressive nature: in contrast to art, religion, philosophy, morality, and politics, there exist clear standards or normative criteria for identifying improvements and advances in science. For example, the historian of science George Sarton argued that “the acquisition and systematization of positive knowledge are the only human activities which are truly cumulative and progressive, ” and “progress has no definite and unquestionable meaning in other fields than the field of science”. However, the traditional cumulative view of scientific knowledge was effectively challenged by many philosophers of science in the 1960s and the 1970s, and thereby the notion of progress was also questioned in the field of science. Debates on the normative concept of progress are at the same time concerned with axiological questions about the aims and goals of science. The task of philosophical analysis is to consider alternative answers to the question: What is meant by progress in science? This conceptual question can then be complemented by the methodological question: How can we recognize progressive developments in science? Relative to a definition of progress and an account of its best indicators, one may then study the factual question: to what extent, and in which respects, is science progressive?

what is the internet for me? i can say internet is my second home, not real, of course, but virtual. it’s a reality of modern life: we can’t imagine our existence without the use of www (world wide web). it’s a pity but people are obsessed with the idea of being online. and i’m not an exception. i use vkontakte, facebook, twitter, instagram. i’m an active user of all these social networking sites. i chat with my friends, play online games, listen to music and watch funny videos. i have the internet in my phone. for one hand, it’s cool that i can watch news when i go by bus/train/metro. from the other hand, i notice that i’m keen on the internet. if i have nothing to do, i open my phone/laptop and surf the internet. sometimes i don’t even take the time. the internet impacts my life.
the internet has pros and cons. of course, for me the internet is a great pleasure. thanks, developers of it! but i understand that the internet can influence us both positively and negatively. first of all i tell about a positive side of the internet. i can communicate with any person from any part of the world. i have friends in various countries so it’s easy to talk with them by skype or viber for instance. the internet helps me to prepare my lessons. i seek for additional material practically every day. i can find almost everything in the web. so cool, now i needn’t to spend many hours in libraries as my parents spent. i like shopping online and with the help of the internet is a real pleasure. i order cloths and other items on aliexpress.
now i’ll tell you about cons of the internet. first of all it’s a kind of obsession. people (especially teenagers) can’t control themselves. they need to be all the time in the internet. the internet also blocks our brain (i think so sometimes). i can just take the composition from the internet, transform it a little bit and the homework is ready. we need to think ourselves but nowadays we are too lazy to do this, the internet can do everything for ourselves. it’s true.
the internet is a great thing! i’m happy to live in the 21st century with all modern technologies and devices.
