保护文物的英语作文

文物是世界独一无二的，它需要我们的保护，以便于传承给下一代。

In recent years, our nation has raised a tide of preservation of cultural ver, in my opinion, some measures being made to preserve the cultural relics are not economical and cannot reach the purpose of preservation of cultural relics.

For example, towards some old houses, one of the common measures is to renovate them with new materials and make them look bright and luxurious. After that, the house owners are not allowed to live in these houses and they cannot sell them as well. The only purpose of these “new” houses is to be visited and be decorated. This kind of measure is not economical and unreasonable. For one thing, the house owners need to spend a lot of money to preserve the houses; for another, our traditional cultures featured at these houses cannot be spread effectively to others and the next generations. Thus, the measure made to preserve the cultural relics needed to improve.

Another example, concerning some famous buildings, our government spends a lot of money to renovate and preserve them and charges for the entrance fee. This kind of action to a large extent keeps people from visiting these famous buildings; doubtless, the spread of our traditional cultures is also limited.

Therefore, in order to spread our traditional cultures and preserve the cultural relics, our government needs to mend their measures. At the same time, people should enhance their awareness of protection of cultural relics and mend their manners.

Cultural relics are great treasures handed down from our ancestors. Recently many media have been reporting that large quantities of Cultural relics are being seriously damaged, which arouses public concern.

What reasons lie behind these phenomena? Firstly, a variety of natural forces, such as storms and earthquakes, cause these. Secondly, some people are lacking in the awareness of preserving the cultural relics. Especially, a few visitors scribble everywhere, which result in damage to those valuable remains. Lastly, to create high profits, local governments remain blind to tourism development projects that might destroy the cultural relics.

The cultural relics can spread our great traditional cultures and pass the precious treasures down to our future generations. Therefore, more effective laws should be passed by our government to keep them in good preservation while people should enhance the awareness of protection. As students, we should take long-term actions to protect the cultural relics.

There are two people talking with each other at the site of a tall building under construction. One asks, “Where are the cultural relics?” The other answers, “Oh,they are being protected in the basement of the building.” Though it is only a joke,it reflects a phenomenon deserving of our serious attention. Our ancient andtraditional architectures are gradually being replaced with modern buildings of steel and cement.

Should we sacrifice cultural relics for the sake of modern social and economic development? The answer is definitely “no”. To begin with, cultural relics are the valued historic heritage of the ancient Chinese people. We should respect our own culture and history. Besides, we have the responsibility to protect our cultural heritages and hand them down to our next generations. Otherwise, we will commit historical mistakes. On the other hand, cultural legacy protection does not necessarily hinder the growth of the society. Instead, it adds vitality to the urban environment and fosters the development of tourism.

Counter-measures must be taken immediately so as to prevent the destruction of valuable ancient and traditional heritage. Most importantly, relevant laws andregulations must be formulated to protect the cultural relics. Furthermore, we must spare no effort in popularizing the importance of the protection work. In a word,China should strive to create an environment conducive to cultural heritage protection.
