With the evolution of technology and science, some aspects of traditional culture are being lost, and some people believe that traditional cultures will eventually be replaced by modern science and technology such as computer and internet. Whether you like these transformations or not, changes are occurring everyday. People become to be accustomed to talk with a machine or spend over night facing with a certain screen. Those application of technology are so wide and have such intensive impact on our daily life , it seems that people would simply be uncomfortable without them. At the same time, something which has accompanied with us for centuries would be destiny replaced by others.However, advance technologies also have more capacity of preserve our traditional cultures. For many wonderful paintings and handicrafts are under the protection of the latest technologies against accidentally damage and theft, which could help to keep them along with future generation. Chances are more new buildings are well constructed with traditional artistry and modern style, as well more materials of china opera are widely applied in “hip- pop”. On the other hand, some negative aspects could not be underestimated. It was reported that more people prefer to face the unemotional screens all night, while be found reluctant to talk with their families after meal. Social interaction, the major source of human’s pleasure, are being ignored. Lack of enough social intercourse, some researches declaimed that, would result in an internet-addicted person unable to distinguish between fantasy and reality, and tend to be isolated, self-centered and even a bit eccentric. Too often, parents complain the extension of threat posed by booming internet use among the young. Their children are exposed to negative materials overflowed with violence and eroticisms. They also worry that highly personal and sensitive information children given out in chatting online would make them targets for fraudsters. Well, in my opinion, science and technology are methods of looking at the world, a method that requires an open mind, objectivity and proof based upon observation. It’s a method that ignores religion, race, nationality, economics, morality and ethics. It pays attention only to results of research. The scientific method has shown us endless marvels and wonders, but method can not provide all the answers. Science only tell us how to make a bomb, it can not tell us why to drop one. In the 19th century, people believed in progress, they believed that science would lead them to a new era of endless prosperity and happiness. Well, it didn’t work out that way. Two disastrous would wars convinced people of that. Yet in our disappointment and in our fears that science was a monster that one day destroy us , we forgot that science was not the monsters, we were the monsters. Science was merely a servant, and like fire or other thing else, a good servant when treated properly. Despite all the problems of modern world and the loss of portion of our traditional cultures, most people would not choose to live in any of the less scientific ages that have preceded ours. What’s more, all the latest thoughts or others, which seem to be fresh to us currently, would become certain traditional cultures one day later. That is how the world works. Changes would never stop, therefore, accept them or change yourselves.
