Brave New World - Chapter 17 - Brave New Sport

" ... You cant play Electro-magnetic golf according to the rules of Centrifugal Bumble puppy"(Huxley 242).

In defending the statement, Science and Technology will help benefit humanity in the future, this quote above can help benefit the way people will take action towards games, activities, and also health as well. A lot of people use electro-magnetic golf for many beneficial reasons, one of the few were, exercise, since the technology is so advanced at the current world of Brave New World, this could possibly help injured or handicapped people to exercise or even people who are not motivated enough  to exercise. This is a really good for the near future because this will help revolutionize future technology and future activities for health and for schools. This is also beneficial  because it shows everyone how not only weapons can used for advancements also games, sports, and activities. Also, this can play a major role for people who feel like they are not great enough at sports or any physical activities to show more potential and also to get better at the sport.

Brave New World - Chapter 16 - Movies and Chill?

"We've sacrificed the high art. We have feelies and the scent organ instead.' 'But they don't mean anything" (Huxley 227).

In defending the statement, Science and Technology will help benefit humanity in the future, is very efficient and advanced way for everyone to watch new movies. This is beneficial for humanity because people who can not comprehend certain situations can finally feel how it is like to feel certain emotions or difficult events. This also helps relate to the very famous quote, "you won't know until you walk a mile in my shoes", because you can actually feel what other people are going through with their emotion and how they personally feel about a certain situation. This is beneficial for humanity because people need to realize how other people feel in difficult situations so they can not take their feelings for granted and also understand how they can deal and handle what other people are going through. Overall, having this very advanced technology can help science in various ways, it can be an experiment on how our minds work and how ours bodies can react to certain situations because we need our bodies to be familiar with certain  situations.

Brave New World - Chapter 15 - Pew Pew

"Three men with spraying machines buckled to their shoulders pumped thick clouds of soma vapour into the air. Two more were busy round the portable Synthetic Music Box. Carrying water pistols charged with a powerful anesthetic, four others had pushed their way into the crowed and were methodically laying out, squirt by squirt, the more ferocious fighters" (Huxley 220).


In defending the statement, Science and Technology will help benefit humanity in the future, supports the quote above that the new technology will help benefit the humane race in the future because they created a new weaponry to fight off any enemies. This will definitely be a crucial weapon for the future because it did not really clarify if the Brave New World had weapons of any sort that existed in their world. This gives everyone a whole classification of what advancements still existed and improved. This is more beneficial for humans because instead of bullets they use water, a little less harmful to the people who are going to be affected. Also, this puts a big rest on gun violence and gun control on the people.  A lot of parents do not need to wake up in fear of their children being harmed at school because they put the rest on bullets. Overall, this water gun is beneficial for humanity because it's less harmful and a more safer way for authorities to defend themselves.

Brave New World - Chapter 14 - Television Fun

"Linda was dying in company–in company and with all the modern conveniences. The air was continuously alive with gay synthetic melodies. At the foot of every bed, confronting its moribund occupant, was a television box. Television was left on, a running tap, from morning till night. Every quarter of an hour the prevailing perfume of the room was automatically changed. "We try," explained the nurse, who had taken charge of the Savage at the door, "we try to create a thoroughly pleasant atmosphere here–something between a first-class hotel and a feely-palace..." (Huxley 203).

In defending the statement, Science and Technology will help benefit humanity in the future, this supports the fact that technology will help benefit humanity in the future. In further explanation, John visits his ill mother in a hospital because she has been ill for a very long time. John talks to the nurse to help him find his mother and the nurse becomes shock about what he just said but she still helps him. As he enters the room, he sees his mom, Linda, resting while watching a tennis game. This benefits her and humanity in the future because people need a sort of entertainment to help take their minds of serious issues. It was described in the quote, the television was left from morning till night. We can infer that Linda could not sleep and was really stressed about he health and about life in general that she left the television on day and night. This is has been going on till this day, people use various technologies  to run away from stress. For example, smartphones, computers, etc. 

Brave New World - Chapter 13 - V.P.S. Treatment

"A V.P.S. treatment indeed! She would have laughed, if she hadn't been on the point of crying. As though she hadn't got enough V. P. of her own! She sighed profoundly as she refilled her syringe. "John," she murmured to herself, "John …" Then "My Ford," she wondered, "have I given this one its sleeping sickness injection, or haven't I?" (Huxley 191). 

In defending the statement, Science and Technology will help benefit humanity, this supports the idea of science will help benefit humanity in the future years by having minimal amount of diseases and viruses spreading through the town which, once again proves that having V.P.S. Treatment is beneficial for everyone in the universe of the Brave New World and humanity in the future. In this passage, Henry Foster asks Lenin if she was ill because she rejected his offer to sleep with him. Henry suggested her to go see a doctor because he saw some weariness in her purple eyes and he also detected some sadness feeling towards her. Assuming, It was mostly about John. In furthermore, having V.P.S. is very crucial for the human race in the future years because this can help prevent many diseases to spread around the world and it can also help the people who can not afford health care and hospital bills.

Brave New World - Chapter 12 - Aware of Biology

"A New Theory of Biology," was the title of the paper which Mustapha Mond had just finished reading"
"The author's mathematical treatment of the conception of purpose is novel and highly ingenious, but heretical and, so far as the present social order is concerned, dangerous and potentially subversive" (Huxley 180). 

In defending the statement, Science and Technology will help benefit humanity in the future, with this new book because it's shows how you are still aware and not ignorant about certain issues. So the passage starts off with Mustapha Mond had just finished reading a book called, "A New Theory of Biology", it was described as ingenious. This is really significant because the Brave New World do not condone individuals to have free thought. This will help humanity later in the future by helping the world have free thought and create social order. Not only would it create social order and free though but everyone would not give in to conformity anymore. Moreover, when they read more about the life of biology they would be more aware of what is happening to their bodies and hopefully learn how unsafe and fake soma is. Overall, having this great science book will help humanity to not be ignorant anymore and hopefully discover the truth about soma and the world they live in.
