With satisfying the explosive demands from modern society, scientists and technicians make their all efforts for inventing or developing advanced technologies. In fact, countries need advanced productivity instead of backward productivity for accelabrating their society development. Netherless, as the backward productivity, manual traditional skills and the way of life die out. In view of this situation, we have to confront the issues, is it poitless to try and keep the traditional skills or is it necessary to reserve these traditional skills and even develop them?

In my point, the answer of the former one is no, and yes is the latter one's reply.

As I know, most people will agree with me, while small part of opponents may hold the argument that it is the destiney of the backward issues, are insteaded of by the stronger and more advanced ones and gradually disapprear in the history stage, and that's the nature's law. I admit that nature have some laws, but most of them are broken by human, including these advanced technologies that we think are beneficial but nature must have serious doubt. Then, I don't argue so much about advanced technologies, after all we all need them so much and their benefit for us is apparently,  whereas just want to emphasize my point, traditional skills are not just skill for us and some of them mean cultures or customs, others are even some kind of art.

For example, kniting sweater is a traditional skill for woman and the generation of people as my mother almost master this skill. I rememberred my mother could knit many varieties of sweaters for me and every sweater is put into her caring and love. However, the generation of people like me, hardly find someone who can knit sweater, because it is easy for us to buy some clothes in proper prices. The advanced machines help to reduce the costs of clothes by making more producitively. It is more convenient but lack of caring ,love. Fortunately, some modern girls start to learn this traditional skill as an art. I suppose the educational department should build some traditional skill courses for providing chances for students realise and learn them.

All in all, some traditional skills should be looked as heritages to reserve and develope. I do believe that we are able to develope the technologies and keep our traditional skills at the same time. Traditional skills are still of great worth for our society and there are a lof of wisdom in them.
