Most people would agree that buildings represent a valuable record of any society's past, but controversy arises when old buildings stand on ground those modern planners feel could be better used for modern purposes. In such situations, modern development should be given precedence over the preservation of historic buildings so that contemporary needs can be served.
------正文------
Should modern development given precedence over preservation of historic buildings as the statement asserts? In my point of view, people holding this opinion have not enough awareness of the significant value of historic architectures in our modern society.
As every nation has its unforgettable history, each country has its distinctive style of architecture. Sometimes building means more than just a house that provides people with an accommodation. It presents the soul of the culture, which tells us where we from and how we different from the other nations, and along with it we inherit a value system of art, aesthete and technique from our ancestors. For instance, in many foreign countries where there is a large group of Chinese immigrants, you will find a special community called "China Town" with all the buildings presented in the traditional Chinese style. This is the way that people identify themselves as the "dragon's progeny".
From its historical building, we tract back the past and tell a country's spirit. A well-presented example is the great Pyramids in the Egypt, which shows us an outstanding civilization once existed in the mid-east desert, and impressed us deeply with the courage and talent of ancient Egyptian people. Also the Great Wall, makes us去掉 Chinese people proud of our prosperous history, and inspirits us to contribute more to our glorious nation. Historical architecture stands as a vivid textbook, which is not only visible but also touchable.建议少出现us you这样得词 客观些比较好
Furthermore, historical buildings serve as tourism attraction, and benefit us greatly in economic. Such as the big Ben in London, triumphal arch in Paris, Summer Palace in Beijing, the historical architectures, as the emblems of a city, attract thousand of tourists home and aboard every year. When people are visiting Beijing they expect to see some traditional houses with red wall and yellow eave on the street, but not skyscrapers everywhere; they would like to wander in the "Hu Tong" (an old style of bystreet) casually, but not just driving over the high-streets. 北京高楼也满多了 红砖黄瓦得地方比较少了 这个例子似乎不是很好
Unfortunately, with the process of globalization, some major cities in China replaced the old buildings with new ones which designed in the international style, and the figures of these cities are more and more similar. Therefore we should look into this serious issue and realize our responsibility to preserve these valuable historic buildings for our decadences. If the modern development is based on the expense of the loss of historical buildings, the city will lose its culture foundation and its unique characteristic.
In summary, historic buildings, with their significant values in the history and culture record, needs us to protect them with any effort. While the modern development could be planed and relocated, and the historic buildings are irrecoverable once destroyed, we should always give precedence to the preservation of historic architecture.
