　　修改：

　　In this day and age, with the pace of social development, clothes with various styles are winning tremendous popularity in some countries, where national costumes, on the contrary, are not as fashionable as before. Consequently, some people advocate that more people should wear them every day. However, as far as I am concerned, it is unnecessary for everyone to wear those clothes each day.

　　In the first place, it is generally acknowledge that traditional clothes of some countries are inconvenient for national residents to wear in work time. It is a fact that some of their costumes, such as kimono of Japan, cheongsam of china and Korea-style clothes, are too long and big to work. Take policemen and doctors as an example, apparently enough, individuals in these fields can hardly carry out their daily work if wearing such clothes. Actually, there are numerous illustrations like this.

　　In the second place, not wearing national costumes does not mean that citizens are forgetting their history and traditions. In fact, in shcools the countries history is still studied, meanwhile traditions are inherited by the young generations. For instance, in Japan, people, whether the aged or the young, always knee down when eating meals, which has been regarded as one of the traditional customes.

　　Finally, clothes should be kept abreast with the step of social development. The style of clothes can mirror the custom in a period of time in a country. Dr. Wang, a well-known scholar who specializes in society assessment, supportes this view in his paper. And he claims that people living in this fast-pace society should wear neat clothes, which are convenient when working.

　　To sum up, I completely disagree with the view that people should wear the national clothes every day in current society. In my opinion, with various clothes of different styles coming into our lives, national costumes can be enriched or developed to a new scale. Additionally, to avoid the extinction of traditions, people should be encouraged to wear their national costumes in leisure time and during the traditional festivals.
