问题描述：
英语翻译
In performing this “what if…” function,SCIENCE FICTION can act as a social laboratory as authors ruminate upon the forms social relationships could take if key variables in their own societies were different,and upon what new belief systems or mythologies could arise in the future to provide the basic rationalizations for human activities.
在施行这个“如果.”的功能时,即：当作者在思考两类问题时,科幻小说可以扮演一个社会实验室的角色（来检验这样思考结果的可行性）.其一是当他们的社会关键性的变量是不同的情况下,社会关系会如何形成.其二是在将来会有什么样的、关于社会秩序或是信仰的新理念产生来为人类活动提供基本的人际关系.
请问我这样翻对不,如果是对的,到底作者想说明什么呢?
