大作文：     The restoration  of  old  buildings  in  major  cities  in  the  world  costs  numerous governments' expenditures. This money should be used  in new housing and road development. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

范文：

In  the contemporary  age, there  is  a constant  debate over  preserving  history versus  making progress. In terms of the old buildings, many people assert7 that the restoration of them takes up a  big  proportion  of the  government's  budgets  and  the  money  should  be  invested in  the promotion of new houses and road networks, however, I tend to hold a different viewpoint.

 

It is widely acknowledged that many old buildings are protected today because they are culturally valuable to a nation. Like a native language, many historical buildings form a cultural identity and keep a unique record of a country, so they possess significant value to research into the past and play an important role in the education of future generations.

 

Moreover, old buildings, if utilized and preserved properly, could actually contribute to economic development. For example, Westminster Abbey  in London and the Forbidden City in Beijing, as landmarks of  the city  and nation, attract  a large number  of tourists  every year,  which brings millions of dollars in revenue for the government.

 

Nevertheless, we are not advocating equal treatment for all old buildings, and some of them do need to be  torn down, partly because  of safety concerns, and partly  because they need to  be replaced to  meet the need  of social development,  such as raising  the utilization rate  of land. Despite this, many more historical buildings deserve our protection and we should not be blind to their worth; otherwise, we will regret the loss in the years to come.

 

In summary, I believe that the protection of old buildings does not stand in the way of progress at all; instead, they play an indispensable role in reflecting history and creating values in modern life. Although the budget  of the government is  not unlimited, people  should think carefully before making a  move and deep  awareness of conservation  of ancient  architecture should be  highly promoted.
