When my father was young, he practiced calligraphy every day and enjoyed Beijing opera with his grandfather on weekends. Now, as his daughter, I type in English when communicating with my friends, and I like surfing the Internet during holidays. When I enjoy the happiness and convenience brought by new technology, some people shout loudly that with the development of technology, traditional culture must disappear. Can't we really have both? Although my lifestyle is different from my father's, I still believe that the development of technology will not lead to the loss of tradition. On the contrary, it will promote the development of traditional culture.

Some people come to the conclusion that technology leads to the loss of tradition, because they find that many people, especially young people, are interested in new things like the Internet, thus reducing their contact with traditional culture.

However, the decline in popularity does not mean loss. With the development of science and technology, we have more artistic and entertainment choices. In other words, many new cultural forms are taking shape, which provide people with more choices instead of threatening the existence of traditional culture. In fact, if we look at the tradition itself, we can find that with the development of technology, great achievements have been made in many fields. A new opera is on; New research on history is under way; Discovered new facts about historical cities; All these can prove that technology can coexist peacefully with tradition.

In fact, the role of technology goes far beyond this.

The development of technology promotes the development of tradition.

On the one hand, new technologies make it possible to study traditional culture, and at the same time provide advanced technologies for preserving historical masterpieces. Taking calligraphy as an example, the new lighting method is a high-tech achievement, which can prevent handwriting from fading. On the other hand, the rapidly developing media such as Internet and communication satellites provide a stage for traditional culture to face the whole world. We can see that after the advertisement short film of Shanghai World Expo. More people will know the beautiful melody of Jasmine.

In addition, if we look back at history, we will find that culture is always the most prosperous in the era of great economic development.

There is no doubt that the development of technology can ensure the development of economy, and the development of economy will ultimately affect the prosperity of culture.

As we all know, the development of technology has brought us wealth, made the research and development of culture affordable, brought us more leisure time, and made it possible for us to enjoy entertainment. After all, as the great philosopher Marx said, "Economy decides everything.
