When a country develops its technology, the

traditional skills and way of life die out. Do you agree or disagree? Justify

your stand by giving relevant examples where appropriate. Write your essay in not fewer than 350 words.

Nowadays, the

advancement of technology in a country has a marked impact on the traditional of the country.

Every nation has its own unique traditional skills passed from one generation

to generation in order to

save the skills. However, because of

the development of technology, many traditional skills had been replaced by the advanced technology and those skills almost

disappear in our society

today.

Traditional ways of life also have a great changed because of the development

of technology in our country. Therefore, I absolutely agree with the statement that when a country

develops its technology, the traditional skills and ways of life die out. In this essay, I will outline the reasons are mechanization technology of

the production processes, and development

of technology change our traditional lifestyle and traditional skills operation has been replaced

by modern technology .

First and foremost, we have to know the

traditional skills and ways of life die out because of the development of mechanization technology of

the production processes. In this technology, people has been forgot the technique of traditional

skill about the production processes

merely because they are seldom used the skills in work. For example, knitting by

hand is a traditional skill, it is a tired work and also a slow

process which is inconvenient. Furthermore, human workforce is

expensive and take a lot

of time when compared

with

machines and robots. Technologies

are very advanced and bring much more profits to numerous company owners and there are millions of

perfectly produced goods on the market - from clothes to cars. Hence, those handmade

items are difficult to create ,waste more time and only earn less profit.

Secondly , people who used to cultivate

lands with the plough and cow in many years before and that was a kind of

traditional skill

replaced by the invention of motorized irrigation

system. This is due

to the fact that development of technology change our

traditional lifestyle and people might have lost

the traditional skill they had even though the technology helped

them to produce more crops than ever before. For instance,

the invention of handphone, internet, television and refrigerator, people have definitely

adopted a different lifestyle than they had many year ago. Moreover, people used to

do things manually and with the widespread of technology they have started

relying on technology than their own skill and that has caused the loss of

traditional skill. But we have to bear in mind that many technologies have been

replaced by newer ones and people always try to take the easy and better

alternatives.

Last but not least, our country also seldom used the traditional skills

operation in many fields such as agriculture,

industries, and the machines. This is mean that traditional technology has been replaced by the modern

technology in those

difference kind of region. Moreover, the traditional skills operation is no working well

in those different field of factories and just decrease the productivity.

In order to increase the

value of company, the modern technology has a great and perfect ability for

productivity to help the company into international market. For an example,

traditional skills operation need 2 days to finish the work while modern

technology only need less than a day. Thus,

that is why the traditional skills are expiring with the demand if time and

modernization.

In short, there are many reasons to the traditional skills

and ways of life replaced by enhances technology of country which are development of mechanization technology of

the production processes, change our traditional lifestyle and

traditional technology will replaced by the modern

technology. I

still firmly agree that

when a country develops its technology, the

traditional skills and ways of life die out. I would like to say that

when technology offers us a better alternative life, we should cordially accept

that but we should also respect the people who among us maintain the old way of

life. Technology would knowingly and unknowingly influence our life but we

should not make it a must for everybody.
