With the fast development of science and techknowledge, modern society is becoming more and more different from the traditional one. The statement that tradition and modernization are incompatible and one must choose between them, however, is not accurate. In my opinion, while there are so many differences between tradition and modernization that one must make a choice, there are also some similarities between them that one should realize.
The modern lifestyle has become incompatible with the traditional one. For instance, the instant communication systems have brought people into a new time. Instead of waiting for weeks or even months for sending a letter, what one has to do is click on the "send" button, the mail will be into the other's mailbox within seconds. Again, instead of spending months on the voyage from America to England, one can reach his destination within hours due to the development of airplane. In addition, people used to watch operas for entertainment while today, there are much more choices available, such as movies, songs, surfing the Internet, and even driving. When it comes to the choice between tradition and modernization, only a few would prefer sending a mail by postmen to sending it by the Internet, and even fewer would prefer travelling by modern transportation tools like cars and airplanes to travelling on horses. Therefore, modern lifestyle is incompatible with the traditional one, and when making a choice, nearly everyone would choose the former.
However, when it comes to the concept of values, there is no such a big difference between tradition and modernization. Both ancestors and modern people share the same values. They all agree with the basic right of liberty, life and the pursuit of happiness. Moreover, both in the past and at present, the qualities like honesty and integrity are always cherished and respected. Again, both in the time of tradition and modernization, theft, robbery and killing are all considered sins. Thus, both in tradition and modernization, there are always some that will not change.
In sum, despite the incompatible aspects between tradition and modernization that one must choose from, theconcept of values no matter in tradition or modernization that all human beings share together will remain the same.
