59. About Moral Values More and more people are forgetting the saying， "Pride comes before a fall." I remember only a few years ago when things used to be so different. People used to be more modest and humble. As I looked around at my schoolmate the other day， I realized how different things are. People are so much more pretentious nowadays. With their fancy clothes and stylish hairdos， they appear too materialistic， which is not to my liking. I know modernization is necessary for advancement. However， I hope we don t lose our traditional moral values along the way.
