5. 주요 문장 설명

 

1) If we adopt technology, we need to pay its costs.

 

-Grammar: This is a conditional sentence, which consists of two clauses: "if we adopt technology" (dependent clause) and "we need to pay its costs" (independent clause). The dependent clause is introduced by the conjunction "if," which signals a condition. The subject "we" in both clauses implies collective responsibility.


-Meaning: This sentence suggests that when technology is introduced and accepted, there are associated costs to be paid, possibly implying the negative consequences of adopting technology.

 

2) Technology creates many new jobs that are certainly dangerous.
-Grammar: This sentence has a subject ("technology"), a verb ("creates"), and a direct object ("many new jobs"). The adjective "many" modifies "new jobs," indicating a large quantity. The relative pronoun "that" introduces a relative clause ("that are certainly dangerous"), which modifies "new jobs." The adverb "certainly" emphasizes the adjective "dangerous" in the relative clause.


-Meaning: The sentence conveys that technology generates a significant number of new jobs, but these jobs come with a certain level of danger, highlighting the potential risks associated with technology-driven employment.
