Reading
Read the editorial again and answer the following questions.
2. How do you understand the quote from Cicero?
From my point of view, Cicero’s quote means that knowing about our past helps us understand the present and the future better. If we were ignorant of our past, our knowledge about cultural and natural environments would be lacking. We would lose vital information that could help us become better by not repeating past mistakes. We would also not appreciate all the efforts and struggles of the people that came before us.

Possible answer
Speaking
A: Let’s discuss the importance of protecting heritage sites first. I think heritage sites are a reminder of the power of nature and the genius of man.
B: Absolutely right. Natural heritage sites amaze us with their splendour and command our respect for nature, and cultural heritage sites can connect us with the past.
A: Yes. I think we’ve talked enough about this point. Maybe we could move on to discussing some useful measures.
.
22
Speaking
B: OK. In my opinion, even if UNESCO does declare a place as a heritage site, it offers little protection especially if local communities do not take ownership to preserve their heritage.
A: I agree with you. Local communities should take some measures. For instance, limiting the number of visitors to these sites and regulating how often or how long they’re open to visitors are the first step in the right direction. Can you add anything?
23
Speaking
B: Yes, I can. Activities like fundraising events can help contribute towards resources required to carry out any restoration and preservation projects.
A: I definitely agree! I’m also thinking how little is being done to educate the general public about their importance. The public might be unaware of the dangers that heritage sites are facing. We need to ensure everyone becomes a part of the solution rather than the problem.
24
Speaking
B: Yes, but let’s change the topic to what effective methods can raise public awareness. I think one is to launch awareness campaigns about the dangers to these vulnerable sites and also how to prevent those dangers. Do you have any other ideas?
A: Yes, I do. Most people use the Internet nowadays, so it’ll be extremely helpful to set up easily accessible and informative websites about the topic.
B: That’s a great idea. I know that if we all work together to take care of our heritage sites, future generations will get to enjoy them too.

A link to the past
Heritage sites are a reminder of the power of nature and the genius of man. Natural heritage sites amaze us with their splendour and command our respect for nature. Cultural heritage sites can connect us with the past. They remind us of our achievements and links us to the great story of human history. Preserving our heritage sites allows us to appreciate the past and to find inspiration for the future.
In order to preserve heritage sites successfully, we could put in place some of the following measures. First, we should limit the number of visitors to vulnerable sites and regulate how often or how long the sites are open to visitors. This measure may help reduce the damage that might be caused due to uncontrolled tourist flow. This measure

is possible if tickets for the sites need to be purchased or booked in advance. In this way, the site authorities can keep a watchful eye on the sites and manage them better. Second, we need to invest more money in the projects about the restoration and preservation of local heritage to help maintain project resources such as essential equipment.
Last but not the least, we have to educate the general public about the importance of heritage sites, the dangers they face and the methods to protect them. Effective ways to do this could include launching awareness campaigns and setting up informative websites. The public might be unaware of the dangers that heritage sites are facing, so making this information available to them will encourage them to become a part of the solution rather than the problem.

Dear Peter,
I’m glad to hear that you’re interested in Chinese cultural heritage protection.
My city is home to an ancient stone bridge built in the Ming Dynasty, which has stood over the river for nearly 500 years. To protect it, the local government has closed the bridge to heavy vehicles to avoid damage. Besides, regular inspections and repairs are carried out by experts every year to keep it in good condition. Volunteers also guide visitors to respect the rules, like not carving on the stones.
This bridge is a symbol of our history and wisdom. I sincerely invite you to come and admire its beauty in person.
Yours,
Li Hua

Dear friends,
As a high school student, I am deeply concerned about the destruction of cultural heritage around the world. Human activities such as war, urbanization, and tourism have damaged many cultural sites, and we risk losing them forever. It is time for us to take action and protect our global heritage.
The incredible splendour of heritage sites is a reminder of the power of nature and the genius of man. Besides, heritage sites provide us with opportunities to wonder, to be inspired and to think more deeply about our time on the Earth.
As Cicero remarked, “To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child.” Let us work together to protect it for future generations.
Yours,
Li Hua
