　　题目：

　　As we acquire more knowledge, things do not become more comprehensible, but more complex and more mysterious.

　　当我们获得越来越多的知识，事情并没有变的更加透彻，相反是变的更复杂更神秘。

　　正文：

　　With the development of the society, natural science and social science help people learn more about the world and the things seems to be clear, actually, under some circumstance, in-depth researches on things cause three consequences at the some time: comprehensible, complex and mysterious rather than merely understand.

　　Accumulated knowledge helps problems or theories to be expressed clearly and lucidly¹ so that people feel easy to understand the issues. For example, Galileo, who was a famous Italian astronomer² who despise the prejudices and book learning of the Aristotelians, who put his question to the nature instead of the ancient, and who drew his conclusion fearlessly. Eventually, his experiment and observation established a new theory and overthrew³ the old one from Aristotle. Because of his success and theories,people learn how to observe the sky with telescope and begin to understand another space, which is far from the earth. Obviously, without knowledge from Galileo’s theory, universe might also be a inspiration and even a vacancy⁴. Take another scientist for example, Edison, who invented electric bulb by making thousand experiment and brought the society into a brilliant century. Recently, people live in a society which full of light and help them to learn what they can see and observe. With the revolution of human beings, knowledge solves various problems and creates a more comprehensible and comfortable life to the people.

　　However, those knowledge makes us to considered the reason and origin for human nature of curiosity, as a result, the world become increasingly complex. Take the same instance what have pointed⁵ above, although people learn to use telescope to observe the sky, people unsatisfied with such a "observation" and desire to touch with the outer space and understand other planets. In this case, scientists invented the spacecraft which have successfully landed on the Moon and Mars, after these experiments, people know that there are no water and few gravitation in Moon, and the Mas might have the similar condition of the earth. however, the complex problems come out, because people feel difficulty to explain the phenomena⁶ in the outer space.

　　Therefore, the research on astronomy becomes complex and involved. Not only this field, but also all scientific area becomes complicate⁷. When people understand a surface of things, they will feel anxious to learn the core of them, however, the deeper people do researches, the more complications exist.
