When a country develops its technology, the traditional skills and ways of kife die out. It is pointless to try and keep them alive. To what extent do you agree or disagree.

✨ Do you want to improve your IELTS writing?
Overall, I disagree with the opinion expressed. I would like
to begin
Linking Words
by pointing out that "traditional skills and
ways

of
life
Use synonyms
" are not automatically of one country, but of a culture or community. In many
ways
Use synonyms
, the history of civilisation is the history of
technology
Use synonyms
; from the discovery of fire to the invention of the wheel to the development of the Internet. We have been moving on from previous
ways

of doing things. Some technologies,
such

as weapons of mass destruction, are of negative impact. Others,
such

as medical advances, positively helo people to live better or longer, and so very much help traditional
ways

of

. Surely, few people would seek to preserve
such

traditions as living in caves. Interestingly,
technology

can positively contribute to the keeping alive of traditional skills and
ways

.
For example

, the populations of some islands are too small to have normal schools. Rather than breaking up families by sending children to the mainland, education authorities have been able to use the internet to deliver schooling online.
In addition

, the Internet and modern refrigeration techniques, are being used to keep alive the traditional skills of producing salmon, it can now be ordered from, and delivered to, anywhere in the world. In conclusion, without suggesting that all
technology

is necessarily good, I think it is by no means 'pointless', in any way, to try to keep traditions alive with
technology

. We should not ignore
technology

, because it can be our friend and support our way of
life
