Evolution of science, technology and intelligence has both improved and worsen human life. When properly used, science and technology have always been very good tools for advances in industry, everyday comforts, health, and education, thus giving us a better quality of life.

All these improvements are linked to each other, creating a chain of benefits for civilization. If we think of life expectancy, for example, we can realize our ancestors used to live less time, this is because medicine has significantly evolved thanks to science and technology. Another example is communication, nowadays we can instantly get in touch with a person who is miles away thanks to the creation of cellphones and computers.

But, when improperly used, science, technology and intelligence can be destructive. This was the case with WWII, in which technology and science were employed to build weapons of mass destruction, as the atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

It is also true that our planet is deteriorating due to these activities, and if somebody has to take responsiblity for it, it is us, but only us together can help the planet get better. The following quote from the novel by Mary Shelley shares the same ideal:

"It is true, we shall be monsters, cut off from all the world; but on that account we shall be more attached to one another.”

Answer:

The answer is that his son has been caught smoking.

Explanation:

Yevgeny's problem is that his seven year old son has been caught smoking tobacco by the governess, and , what's more, the son actually stole the tobacco rom Yevgeny's desk.

Yevgeny's wife, the boy's mother, has died, and he regrets that he really has no notion of how o speak to the child about the smoking, he does not think that smoking is all that bad as an habit after all he does it himself, and he does not know how to impress upon the child the seriousness of lying about that kinda behavior.

"Yevgeny Petrovitch finds it as strange and absurd that he, an experienced advocate, who spent half of his life in the practice of reducing people to silence, forestalling what they had to say, and punishing them, was completely at a loss and did not know what to say to the boy."
