147.“Tradition and modernization are incompatible. One must choose between them.”============================================================== Many nations has been faced the problem of making choice between tradition and modernization, which is a controversial issue recent years. When it comes to this issue, we may find that some people hold the opinion that modernization facilitating development should be put superior to tradition, while others claims opposite that tradition preserve the essential of human society. By scrutinizing many aspects of the problem, while I agree that modernization plays an important role of modern life, I mainly bolster that tradition represents human cultural development. My point of view will be illustrated by following discussion.
First of all, the top of the reason for my view is that with the development of our economy and society, increasing number of people who show concern about modern technology development. We may take a common example to illustrate that: the Internet. No invention has received more praise and abuse than Internet. It is commonly thought that our society had dramatically changed by modern science and technology, and human had made extraordinary progress in knowledge and technology over the recent decades. The Internet has making abandon of contribution of it. With the increasing usage of the Internet, people could learn and get information all over the world easily and quickly, which is and impossible mission for traditional life. From what have been mention above, it is obvious that modern technology not only reduces the distance of people around the world but also enhances the progress of human cultural living in modern life.
However,just as every coin has two sides .Although I admit that modernization has many advantages, the fast progress of modernization has its disadvantages. The progress of science and technology is bringing us a lot of trouble. People in many countries are suffering from public hazards. Let's take cars for example. They not only pollute the air in cities, but make them crowded. Furthermore, they are responsible for a lot of traffic accidents. The noise made by cars disturbs the residents living on both sides of streets all day and night.
On the other hand, people can always learn from tradition. Tradition represents the history of human society and the essential of cultural. Many of traditional technology are the wisdom of our ancestors. People who never look back and learn from the past will always make the second mistakes.
From what has been discussed above, we can draw the conclusion that modernization and tradition are both important for our life. Although it is depending on personal experiences and beliefs, things should be or should not be done is differ from person to person. I strongly bolster that it is as important to maintain the tradition as to develop modern technology. |
