正文：
As the rapid social and technological development continue changing our life, the gap between tradition and modernization has become obvious. So some people maintain that tradition and modernization are incompatible and one must choose between them. But since both of them have affected our life everyday, in my view, the two effects are related to each other in many aspects and call for a balance.

Admittedly, there are so many differences between tradition and modernization. Even in some cases they are actually exclusive. A good example that well illustrates my view comes from music. We can make a comparison between the classical music and the Rock&Roll. It is obvious that the former is regarded as the symbol of elegance and nobleness while the latter expresses the pursuit of personality and freedom. Undoubtedly, it is hard for an old man to accept the rapid rhythm and heavy beat in the rock music; meanwhile it is also difficult for a young man to be interested in the style of classical music. Consequently, in some aspects tradition and modernization show great difference so that different people have different choices.

However, for the most part, tradition and modernization don’t reject each other and even connect with the counterpart so much. Often we don’t have to pick one of them but only combine them properly.

First of all, tradition can be considered as a prerequisite for modernization.  It is undeniable that any development of modernization is based on the tradition because without the supports from tradition, modernization would lose the motivation of advancement. We can take the example of the development of language. As is known, the modern British language results from the ancient Greek and Latin language. Lack of the base of Greek and Latin, British people could not develop their own language and the modern English would not exist in the world now. Almost all the developments of varied modern languages have the same situation. As a result, it is true that modernization is the extension and evolvement of tradition.

Moreover, the balance of the two has been realized as one of the important elements of the development of society. More and more people have realized that if rejecting tradition, one may lose his/her direction when facing problems; meanwhile if rejecting modernization, one would confront the difficulty of communicating with others. For example, Einstein found the theory of relativity due to the help of traditional physics and his own creativity. If he ignored the importance of the classical physics, he would miss the mistake of the traditional comprehension while if he just trusted what other scientists said, it is impossible for him to discover the theory of relativity. So the combination and balance of tradition and modernization will propel the development to our society.

In sum, from what has been discussed above, it is easy to reach the conclusion that not only are tradition and modernization relevant to each other but their balance plays a significant role in the progress of our society. Consequently, it is unnecessary for us to choose only one of them. On the contrary, the most important thing is making a rational combination and keeping the balance, due to which society can continue advancing.

As the rapid social and technological development continue changing our life, the gap between tradition and modernization has become obvious. So some people maintain that tradition and modernization are incompatible and one must choose between them. But since both of them have affected our life everyday, in my view, the two effects are related to each other in many aspects and call for a balance. (赞！)

Admittedly, there are so many differences between tradition and modernization. Even in some cases they are actually exclusive. A good example that well illustrates my view comes from music. We can make a comparison between the classical music and the Rock&Roll. It is obvious that the former is regarded as the symbol of elegance and nobleness while the latter expresses the pursuit of personality and freedom. Undoubtedly, it is hard for an old man to accept the rapid rhythm and heavy beat in the rock music; meanwhile it is also difficult for a young man to be interested in the style of classical music. Consequently, in some aspects tradition and modernization show great difference so that different people have different choices. (好像说明了exclusive又好像没有。如果从社会的角度来看，只是人群不同选择的音乐不同罢了，所以社会上仍然可以二者共存，没有体现exclusive，但是只从老人或年轻人来看就可以了，你可以举更普片的例子，比如老建筑和新建筑的矛盾)

However, for the most part, tradition and modernization don’t reject each other and even connect with the counterpart so much. Often we don’t have to pick one of them but only combine them properly.

First of all, tradition can be considered as a prerequisite for modernization.  It is undeniable that any development of modernization is based on the tradition because without the supports from tradition, modernization would lose the motivation of advancement. We can take the example of the development of language. As is known, the modern British language results from the ancient Greek and Latin language. Lack of the base of Greek and Latin, British people could not develop their own language and the modern English would not exist in the world now. Almost all the developments of varied modern languages have the same situation. As a result, it is true that modernization is the extension and evolvement of tradition. (不错)

Moreover, the balance of the two has been realized as one of the important elements of the development of society. More and more people have realized that if rejecting tradition, one may lose his/her direction when facing problems(这句话不是显然的，要论证); meanwhile if rejecting modernization, one would confront the difficulty of communicating with others. For example, Einstein found the theory of relativity due to the help of traditional physics and his own creativity. If he ignored the importance of the classical physics, he would miss the mistake of the traditional comprehension while if he just trusted what other scientists said, it is impossible for him to discover the theory of relativity. So the combination and balance of tradition and modernization will propel the development to our society. (Einstein的例子没看懂，不知道你要证明什么，翻译一下，同时改改表达)

In sum, from what has been discussed above, it is easy to reach the conclusion that not only are tradition and modernization relevant to each other but their balance plays a significant role in the progress of our society. Consequently, it is unnecessary for us to choose only one of them. On the contrary, the most important thing is making a rational combination and keeping the balance, due to which society can continue advancing.
