Pre-readingWhat dangers do you think cultural and natural heritage sites are faced with?Some of the heritage sites face serious dangers. The lecture below is given by a UNESCO official, who explains some of these dangers. Before you read the lecture transcript, think about the following question:What dangers do you think cultural and natural heritage sites are faced with?The dangers to cultural and natural heritage sites can come from both natural forces and man-made activities. Natural elements like water and wind can erode heritage sites over time. The history and beauty that these sites have carried for thousands or even millions of years can easily be lost.While human activities also present a danger to heritage sites, such as allowing too many tourists,human inaction in taking measures to protect and preserve these sites is just as harmful.03.

Post readingDanger detectiveIn pairs, discuss the following questions.1. Is it a good idea to restore historic sites? Why?2. Is it always good to gain UNESCO World Heritage status? Why?3. How can you participate in the protection of heritage sites?In my opinion, it is a really good idea to restore historic sites that have been damaged or destroyed. Historic sites reflect the glorious history and rich culture of a particular period. Restoring historic sites may also strengthen the link between the past and the present. 1. Is it a good idea to restore historic sites? Why?In my view, there are upsides as well as downsides to gaining UNESCO World Heritage status. On the one hand, this status helps better preserve heritage sites. A piece of the past can thus be shared in the present and protected for the future. This status motivates local officials and communities to put strategies in place to limit the amount of damage that can be caused to sites.This status can also help develop economy and raise living standards in the local area.On the other hand, floods of visitors will cause damage to the heritages sites.In short, there are advantages and disadvantages,and it is not a black-and-white issue.2. Is it always good to gain UNESCO World Heritage status? Why?As a senior high school student, I can help educate people about the danger these heritage sites are facing by making some posters and posting them on the Internet. What’s more, I can also help by simply being an environment-friendly tourist so as not to harm these heritage sites.3. How can you participate in the protection of heritage sites?05.

They are priceless cultural treasures for human beings.However, some of them are badly damaged by natural disasters. Also, many directors choose the beautiful landscapes to shoot films and visitors uncivilizedly pay a visit, which both bring serious destruction. Besides, constant wars and a lot of construction work also do harm to some sites.Obviously, it’s an urgent task for us to take steps to get them protected. Not only should we raise the public awareness of the value of world heritage sites but we should also arrange related activities. It’s everyone’s responsibility to protect our natural treasure.Possible versionThese sites are invaluable treasures shared by all humanity, bearing testament to our history, culture, and nature. They are irreplaceable resources. If they are damaged or lost, they can never be restored. Thus, we bear a responsibility to take action and protect these precious legacies. We can protect them through several aspects.First, we can enact stricter laws and regulations to ensure the safety and integrity of world heritage sites. Moreover, we can enhance public awareness and conservation spirits towards world heritage through education and publicity. Let us all take action and contribute our part to protecting world heritage!Possible versionThank You!
