It is generally agreed that society benefits from the work of its members. Compare the contributions of artists to society with the contributions of scientists to society. Which type of contribution do you think is valued more by your society? Give specific reasons to support your answer.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Any society is developed by the contributions of its members. Two of the main contributors are Artists and Scientists. Both of such contributions share some common qualities; however, they differ in many other aspects.
The contributions of artists and those of scientists share some similarities. First of all, both are indispensable and require time and effort. In the absence of those, life will be dull, boring, and so difficult to live. Secondly, they reflect the culture and civilization of the nation by making us understand the customs and traditions of that country. Last but not least, they can contribute to people’s progress and development by making them mature and more knowledgeable.
However, there are some differences that exist between the contributions of artists and those of scientists. Firstly, the works of artists are embodied in novels, songs, music, shows, movies, plays, paintings, performances, and operas, while the works of scientists are embodied in inventions and discoveries in the fields of physics, chemistry, outer space travel, medicine, computer science, engineering, physics, biology, astronomy, geology, and many more. Secondly, the works of artists provide entertainment and amusement to people and help them relax and raise their morale. While the works of scientists make life much livable and more comfortable. Moreover, the works of artists are the products of creative form of imaginations that require a lot of talent and special skills, whereas the works of scientists require knowledge of science and mathematics and these works are based on experiments, research and development work.
To sum up, I believe that the contributions of artists as well as scientists both are equally valuable and important for the human society.
