Today, we live in the modern world, most things we do can use the machine. The technology brings so many convenience to us, it facilitates our life. As we are facing the new products all the time, the traditional things are fading away. Take the paper-cut for example. When I was very small, paper-cut was so popular in my grandma’s generation, most women could cut all kinds of interesting shapes. While today when I went back to my hometown, I found that most of them had stopped cutting papers, because they could buy them at the very low price. What’s more, the young people don’t learn such art, for the parents think it is not necessary for their children to learn the old-fashion thing. The tradition should not be abandoned, it is the reflection of our culture. Even facing the challenge, we need to inherit the tradition.

今天,我們生活在摩登時代,我們可以使用機器做大部分的事情。科技給我們帶來了很多方便,它便利了我們的生活。我們每天都面對著新產品,傳統的東西正在慢慢消失。以剪紙為例。在我很小的時候,在我祖母的那一代，剪紙很受歡迎,大多數女性可以剪出各種有趣的形狀。現在當我回到家鄉時,我發現他們中的大多數已經停止剪紙,因為他們可以以很低的價格購買。更重要的是,年輕人不了解這種藝術, 以為父母認為他們的孩子沒有必要去學習這種不時髦的東西。傳統不應該被放棄,這是我們文化的反映。甚至面臨挑戰,我們仍然需要繼承傳統。
