It is inevitable that as technology advances,traditional cultures will be lost. It seems that we cannot have these two things together. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

#technology #advances #cultures #two
In the recent year, we have experienced an enormous development in
technology
. As the consequence to
this
, many people are afraid that long-time traditional values might be loosened. In my opinion, I partly agree with
this
 statement. While it may be true in some cases, other culture seems to be unaffected or
moreover
, be cherished by
technology
. It is argued that though the social media has helped individual access the world easier, but it has
also
 destroyed the reading tradition in the youth generation.
For instance
, following the increase of attractive entertainments on social media, people tend to watch televisions or surf the Internet, rather than reading books. People may claim that books’ content have been uploaded on the Internet, so they basically read the book on the web
instead
 of on paper.
However
, reading
book
Suggestion
books
 need time to chew while spending time too much on intelligent devices will damage your eye and cause insomnia by the blue light releasing by them.
On the other hand
, had it not been for the evolution in
technology
, traditional values would not have been spread widely to the youth. In many countries, the government has used social media for disseminating the country’s and cultures.
For example
, a long-time festival of an area is broadcast to the society through social media.
This
 helps bring the old values to the adolescents, and
moreover
, spread away the culture widely on a global scale. In conclusion, though there are some cultures that have witnessed the negative effect
as a result
 of advances in
technology
,
however
, there are still some traditional ways of life has survived and even flourished. In my opinion, if we know how to use the
technology
 wisely, it would be a great help to drive our society upwards, without loosing our precious tradition. It is inevitable that as
technology
 advances
,
Accept space
,
traditional cultures will be lost. It seems that we cannot have these two things together.
