Here's the start of a short story I'm writing:
首先,大多数人强烈反对它,说人一定不要“扮演上帝”。当时他们害怕极了,对于未来的效果有关心。人性会怎么改变?人有很多批评:使用它以后,人还是人吗?用这种技术就是根本不自然的。这些论点使世界政客也反对它,而且除了世界上最伟大的科学家,谁都不允许用这种技术。
其实这只是正式的说法,真实的故事也许我们再也并不确切知道。有人说各个政府认识这种技术太强大了,不想只让别国开发这项危险的技术,所以世界的政府都偷偷地进行研究。有人责备异常的科学家,就卖了这项技术然后跑去退休了。现在有一件肯定的事,这项技术是无处不在的,而它是惊人的。
我叫周子望。大约二十年以前科学家发明了一项是会改变世界的技术。那时候我就是个小朋友,并不知道科学家进行那么重要的研究。无论如何,这新种技术会对我一生中有巨大的影响。
I'm asking for a critique of my writing (analogous to what CodeReview.SE does for code). Please describe how it can be improved. Part of the motivation is to identify my weaknesses, and identify better writing styles. The words in links are new for me.
I'm trying to build some mystery as to what this powerful new technology actually is, and what impact is has had on Zhou Ziwang's life.
Here's the basic idea in English:
At first, most people were strongly against it, saying we definitely don't want to play God. At that time people were fearful, worried about future consequences. How will mankind change? People had many criticisms: After using it, will a person still be a person? Using this technology is fundamentally unnatural. These arguments caused world politicians to also oppose it, and further, except for the world's leading scientists, nobody was permitted to use this technology.
Actually, this is just the official explanation, the real story we'll perhaps never know for sure. Some people say every government recognizes this kind of technology is powerful; they don't want to simply let other countries utilize this dangerous technology, so the world governments secretly conduct research. Some people blame rogue scientists, selling the technology and then fleeing into retirement. Now one thing is for sure, this technology is everywhere, and is astonishing.
I'm Zhou Ziwang. About 20 years ago, scientists discovered a technology that would change the world. That time, I was a little kid, and did not know scientists were conducting this kind of important research. In any case, this new technology has had a profound impact on my life.
I include in case of "this makes absolutely no sense" sentences, but I'm not really concerned about the English.
