Traditional Culture Won‘t Be Lost
It seems we are living in the conflict between modern and traditional cultures every day. Hearing the blaring of horns the moment you step out of your house, seeing the so called "pop" the moment you open your eyes, you can‘t help thinking, "Will the traditional culture be gradually lost?"
Many people believe so. They may put right in front of you all the evidences they can dig out. They may argue that people are rushing to restaurants instead of cooking at home, listening to pop music but not traditional, wearing in a way people couldn‘t imagine ten years ago. Modern people like the air of freedom, not to be restrained by traditions. They offer this long list, only trying to confirm that this world is full of fashion,competition and temptation and the traditional culture is fading and will be lost at last.
Though we are now living in a world in which undeclared aggression, war, hypocrisy, chicanery, anarchy are part of our daily life. Though this is a skeptical age, and our faith has weakened, our confidence in some aspects of the traditional culture should and would never be lost.
Wouldn‘t you agree that our traditional culture is always credited with modesty, politeness and respectfulness, which have always been treasured for more than five thousand years?Even in this modern world, people still admire those with good manners, those who are polite to others or respectful to old people.
Wouldn‘t you agree that our Chinese traditional music is beautiful and artistic and our Chinese tea culture is always an appealing treasure to people around the world?
So there may just be some changes in our lifestyle or our attitudes towards life, but little change occurs to some fundamental aspects of our traditional culture that people still treasure in heart.
The traditional culture will never be lost, I believe.
簡 評
生活在現代文化和傳統文化的衝突之中，我們將何去何從呢?看到了人們的`疑問，也聽到了許多人關於“傳統文化最終將消亡”的言論。但她對此堅決表示反對，並作了自己的論述。
文章開首自然、切題，非常成功；有關文化衝突的列舉也恰到好處；還運用了反問、排比等手法。整篇文章用詞豐富，頗有氣勢，只可惜論證部分有虎頭蛇尾之嫌，尚未展開便草草結尾，實在意猶未盡。
