近代科学技术革命已发生了三次。每次科技革命都把社会主义运动推向新的发展阶段。当今科学技术已是第一生产力，能否不失时机地把科技革命成果转化为生产力，发展经济，改善人民生活，这将关系到社会主义的前途和命运。社会主义者必须认识这一点，自觉地不失时机地发展科技事业，不断解放和发展生产力，把社会主义事业不断推向更高的阶段和更新的层次。 The revolution of science and technology in modern times happened three times. Every revolution in science and technology has pushed the socialist movement to a new stage of development. Nowadays, science and technology are already the primary productive forces. Whether it can seize the opportune moment to turn the fruits of the revolution in science and technology into productivity, develop economy and improve people’s livelihood will be related to the future and destiny of socialism. Socialists must recognize this and consciously seize the opportunity to develop science and technology, continuously liberate and develop their productive forces, and push the cause of socialism to a higher stage and a newer level.
