Snow’s proposition of "two cultures" open a window for our understanding of natural science and social science between a huge gap. His a series of speeches and writings have attracted academic attention to this confrontation and estrangement between the intellectuals and the natural science home more and more standing on the opposite poles. Don’t know each other, or even hostile to each other, this gap can be traced back to the education sector, this one from the beginning is the seeds of "two cultures".The lack of humanistic spirit in higher education, the flood of scientific and technological rationality in the field of science and technology, all for us to better.understand the "two cultures", the deep reasons put forward the requirementsSince the Renaissance, the rapid development of science and technology has brought about great changes to human society. Science and technology bring about the improvement of social productive forces, medical technology, space technology,gene technology, nuclear technology have greatly changed the living conditions of human society, the development of science and technology to the human society to bring about change, science and technology is indeed "the first productivity".But this does not mean that the rapid development of science and technology is the "universal",the rapid development of science and technology makes the human in the use of natural and obvious self-confidence, and its use, it has seriously damaged the peace of people and nature. Man is the existence of nature, nature is the foundation, human universal blindly following the science and technology of the superficial awareness has begun by the nature of punishment, man and nature this is organic unity,destruction of nature is the existence of damage. How to improve people’s cognition,to avoid the blind pursuit of scientific and rational, is the real problem that we have to consider.Although Snow is not the first to recognize the natural science and the Humanities Division scholars, but the exact put forward the proposition of "two cultures". This division and estrangement began to attach importance to the world, exploration,research and solve the people flocked to the proposition of "two cultures", but whether it is Sutton’s "new humanism", Brockman "third culture" or Kelly’s "the third culture" are unable to fundamentally solve "two cultures" gap problem. And early in the middle of the 19 th century, Marx in the “1844 Manuscript of economics and philosophy "put forward:" Natural Science in the future will include about scientific,positive about the science including natural science: it would be a science.By the time limit, although Marx did not directly discuss the dialectical unity between natural science and human science, but through his dialectical materialism viewpoint and people’s thoughts, it can be clearly found that the genius of "a science" can explain the split of "two cultures" and provide scientific basis for the integrationof "two cultures". Not only that, from the current science and interdisciplinary phenomenon, the emergence of a complex problem can not rely on a single discipline to solve the trend, it is also directly confirmed that the two cultures eventually developed into a unified science(or Science) will be the inevitable choice of history.
