  6. 7.1 Lead-in Exercise It also means that governments are increasingly compelled to interfere in these sectors in order to step up production and ensure that it is utilized to the best advantage.

In any case, all such interventions are heavily dependent on scientific advice and also scientific and technological manpower of all kinds.

  7. 7.1 Lead-in Exercise (3) Owing to the remarkable development in mass-communications, people everywhere are feeling new wants and are being exposed to new customs and ideas, while governments are often forced to introduce still further innovations for the reasons given above. 译文: 由于大众通讯的显著发展，所有的人都不断感到有新的需求，并不断接触到新的习俗和思想，由于上述原因，各国政府不得不经常采取更进一步的革新措施。

  8. 7.1 Lead-in Exercise At the same time, the normal rate of social change throughout the world is taking place at a vastly accelerated speed compared with the past.

  9. 7.1 Lead-in Exercise (4) For example, in the early industrialized countries of Europe the process of industrialization with all the far-reaching changes in social patterns that followed-was spread over nearly a century, whereas nowadays a developing nation may undergo the same process in a decade or so. 译文: 在先期实现工业化的欧洲国家里，其工业化进程以及随之而来的各种深刻的社会结构变革持续了大约一个世纪，而如今一个发展中国家在10年左右的时间内就可以完成同样的过程。

  10. 7.1 Lead-in Exercise All this has the effect of building up unusual pressures and tensions within the community and consequently presents serious problems for the governments concerned.

  11. 7.1 Lead-in Exercise (75) Additional social stresses may also occur because of the population explosion or problems arising from mass migration movements-themselves made relatively easy nowadays by modern means of transport. 译文: 由于人口猛增或大量人口流动（现代交通工具使大量人口流动变得相对容易）所引起的各种问题也会对社会造成新的压力。
