问题     There is nothing really new about any present-day moral problems. But perhaps they are now more pressing than in previous ages because modem science has greatly increased the scope and range of the consequences of human decisions. This is most obvious in modem warfare. Combatants(战士) can now be far removed from each other and, in the process, distanced from the consequences of their actions. War is also no longer simply a combat between armies; the humane(仁慈的) distinction between combatants and noncombatants has disappeared. This raises the question of whether there can be any "innocent bystanders" in modern conflicts.
    The problem is at its most extreme with the atomic bombs(原子弹). Many people have questioned the development and production of these bombs, let alone their use, both because their destructiveness outweighs(超过) any justification for their use and because of the probable long-term effects of radiation(辐射). Even the peaceful use of nuclear power carries the risk of pollution of the atmosphere for many generations. Behind the practical problems of using it peacefully is the moral one of whether it is possible to balance the benefits, however great, against the risk, however small and remote.
