When we rescue them andhave problems, what can we learn from the passage?If the problem is too difficult for a single nation, we can turn to global community for help. Cultural relics need the protection of the whole world.2.Who do you think are its target readers?Its target readers may be those who are interested in protecting cultural relics.04 Thinking Practice and Application1. A lot of money was spent to protect the temples. Do you think it was worthwhile? Why?I think it was worthwhile to spend money on protecting the temples because their value is priceless in terms of cultural heritage2. Why do you think so many countries contributed funds and offered help to the Egyptian project?I think that many countries helped because Egyptian history and relics are world-famous and are highly valued around the world as part of our shared cultural history.Creative thinking:“If a problem seems too difficult for a single nation, the global community can sometimes provide a solution.” What can you learn from the sentence?From the sentence we can learn that in our daily life we should not hide ourselves from others but find help from our friends or families when we meet a difficult situation.Language ApplicationThe Forbidden City is being badly damaged nowadays. Can you analyze the reasons and find out the solutions to rescue it? You can refer to the following pictures and the above topic-related lexis in this class.HomeworkWrite a passage to introduce the problems of the Forbidden City and the solutions within 80 words.。
