     May I say something about this question? I mean, I might have no authority to say something about such a question. My answer to the question is both scientists and artists contribute to our society so much. As for me, I will be a doctor in the near future, but now, I am only a student. I don't contribute to our society at all, so I think I don't have any right to say something about this question. Instead, I want to say some benefits we can get by scientists' and artists' contributions.
     In our society, many scientists do many researches everyday. We can not much about their efforts, because their efforts don't directly relate to our daily lives. Sometimes, we can know how they work only by reading a newspaper. But the information we can get from the daily newspaper is very little. We can not know anything about only reading a newspaper or some magazines.
     This summer, using my summer vacation, I asked my professor to give me a chance to do some experiments. He is a professor of division of gene regulatorics at my university. In his laboratory, I could have a chance to do many experiments during the summer vacation. Of course, I am only a student and can not do any beneficial experiments. I mean, my experiments lead to no benefit of our society.
     Then, why did I dare to do such experiments? My friends asked me why I don't use my summer vacation for some leisure such as camping or marine sports. I even think so. I like both camping and marine sports, but I wanted to do some scientific experiments much more.
     In our daily lecture at our university, we have a chance to do some experiments. But those experiments is not a laboratory experiment, but an educational experiment. I mean, in such an experiment, we know the answer from the beginning. But in a laboratory experiment, I don't the answer of my experiment from the beginning. This is because in such an experiment, there is no established method of the experiment. So failure of the experiment is natural. I think trying and erroring is the core of a science, and I believe that will lead to not only the benefits of our society, but the benefits of human beings itself.
     On the other hand, I think we can benefit from the artists' work very much. In our daily lives, while we drive our car with our friends, we usually listening to some music. Listening to our favorite music in a car is very enjoyable and comfortable. I think this is a great contribution of music aritsts.
     At the same time, when we go to some restaurant, we can eat very tasty foods. I think foods is also an art, and we can benefit from the contributions to the full at some restaurant. For example, when we go to some Itarian restaurant, we can have an enjoyable dinner at a reasonable price. We can have a very comfortable time with our friends by the contributions of an artist, a cook.
     I think both scientists and artists contribute to our society to the full. And I want to belong to them in the future.
