It is inevitable that traditional cultures will be lost as technology develops. Technology and traditional culture are incompatible to what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?

Nowadays, the issue of whether or not

technology

and tradition could coexist together has sparked off an intense debate.

Although

some people claim that traditional cultures must be lost as

technology

develops, I personally oppose

this

view and I believe

technology

Suggestion

the technology

could be beneficial to the perseverance of tradition. People who think that

technology

and tradition are incompatible claim that some traditions do go out of fashion.

For

example

, as machines replace manual works, many clothes today are manufactured in production line rather than sewed manually.

Thus

, the sewing techniques as a traditional skill may disappear.

However

, they are oversimplifying the situation. For one thing, preserving traditional

culture

does not mean refusing changes of any kind. As to the

example

mentioned before, if people turned back sticking to sewing clothes manually,

this

would have resulted in

low

lower

efficiency and backwards

in

social development. For another, not everything being lost could be called traditional

culture

. Rather, only those survive through history could be called so.

For

example

, people began to use lamp

instead

of fire to lighten when Edison invented lamp, but it would be hard-pressed to define lightening by fire as the symbol of traditional

culture

. In others words,

technology

helps to identify what is the real traditional

culture

. Yet others argue that

technology

is helpful in preserving traditions

instead

.

To begin

with, advanced

technology

provides appropriate preserving conditions.

For instance

, some antiques have to be kept under a certain room temperature and air-conditioning today makes

this

requirement possible

Suggestion

requirement as possible

.

Moreover

,

technology

is conducive to broadcasting traditions.

For

example

, few people had the opportunity to appreciate classical music before CD players, cassette and other voice store media came into existence.

In contrast

, these technologies help to publicize classical music and pass down from generation to generation. To conclude, I am convinced that

technology

is more conducive than harmful to traditional

culture

perseverance.
