whod like to show your writing?a sample version:nowadays, international communication has become more and more important, people prefer to communicate in languages, such as english, arabic and chinese. but many of the worlds languages and culture are dying out. in this essay we will examine the problem of languages and culture dying and the solutions, such as writing books and increasing language population levels.firstly, as the technology improves, people around the world are relying more and more on electronic devices to communicate with each other. while this trend is helping the major culture, it is having a harmful effect on the minor culture that could be swallowed up by the major culture. secondly, some of the worlds languages are not being learned widely by children or used in daily commerce. in some boarding schools, children were punished for speaking their parents language.despite the desires of language and culture activists, the outlook is somewhat grim. people already realize this problem exists and are trying to solve it. for one solution, people can record the culture and languages on books or tapes, making sure our descendants can learn or use them in the future.the second solution is increasing the language population levels. governments can make some policies, like encouragement for people to learn and teach the languages facing extinction, no matter whether the language is used in daily commerce or not. by trying to keep them alive, at least they have a future as second languages.the important thing is to learn the elders tongue and culture before its too late. otherwise we will lose them.step ii reading and writing ask the students to read the passage on page 78 and answer the questions. t: heritage is our legacy from the past, what we live with today, and what we pass on to future generations. our cultural and natural heritage are both irreplaceable sources of life and inspiration. it can be divided into two groups: tangible and intangible. now please read the passage on page 78 and answer the questions in activity 1. after a few minutes, ask some students to answer the questions orally.sample answers:1. tangible cultural heritage are things one can see and touch. intangible cultural heritage, which is also called living cultural heritage, are things one cannot see or touch, including oral heritage, living human treasures, endangered languages, traditional music of the world. 2. examples of oral heritage: the art of chinese xinjiang uyghur muqam the pastoral song of the mongolian ethnic group.3. living human treasures are those who have the knowledge and skills required for the cultural traditions of their society. 4. the small number of people and being not taught to new inhabitants of the region make a language endangered. 5. an example of traditional music that is thought to be part of an intangible cultural heritage: kunqu opera in kunshan, near suzhou.ask the students to look at the chinas cultural heritage on page 81 and tell from intangible and tangible heritage. t: now please look at the list of chinas cultural heritage in the box in activity 1. tell which items are examples of tangible cultural heritage and which ones are intangible?sample answers:tangible: the great wall, the forbidden city, mogao caves at dunhuang, the qin terracotta, warriors and horses, confucius temple at qufuintangible: kunqu opera, chen-style tai chi, guqin musis, shaolin kung fuask the students to write a short essay about an intangible human heritage that they know about. t: unesco started listing masterpieces of oral and intangible heritage of humanity in 1998, with a view to saving, maintaining and protecting endangered and declining cultural heritage. what intangible human heritage do you know? now look at activity 2 and think about one of them and try to write a short essay about it. sample notes:(a) kunqu opera (b) kunqu opera originated in the kunshan in east chinas jiangsu province over 600 years ago. (c) kunqu opera is one of the few masterpieces to be honored as “masterpiece of the oral and intangible heritage of human beings.” after generations of development, it has established a complete system of acting as well as its own distinct tunes, which had significant influence on other traditional chinese operatic forms, including beijing opera. it is therefore dubbed the “mother of traditional chinese operas.” a sample essay:kunqu operakunqu opera, with more than 400 years of history, is known as “the mother of chinese operas.” kunqu opera began its history during the ming dynasty, in kunshan, a place near suzhou in east jiangsu province. it became the most popular opera of the late ming and early qing dynasties, a period of dominance which lasted for more than 200 years. as a result, nearly all old traditional forms of opera in china have been influenced by kunqu opera. in 2001, it was proclaimed by unesco as a masterpiece of the oral and intangible heritage of humanity. it is our mission to make efforts in inheriting and protecting this tradition, and making it better known to more people.step iii reading practice ask the students to read the passage on page 81. t: to honor examples of intangible cultural heritage, unesco in 1998 created an international program, the proclamation of masterpieces of the oral and intangible heritage of humanity. till now, 47 forms of art, music and oral tradition have been proclaimed by unesco as masterpieces of oral and intangible heritage, including a chinese form of opera called kun qu, and the playing of the guqin. applying for intangible cultural heritage status has been a goal of the chinese government for several years. in 2001, the chinese commission for unesco, a component of chinas ministry of

photos and other informationsample case 1: the great wallthe great wall of china, also known in china as the great wall of 10,000, is an ancient chinese fortification built from the end of the 14th century until the beginning of the 17th century, during the ming dynasty, in order to protect china from raids by the mongols and turkic tribes. it was preceded by several walls built since the 3rd century bc against the raids of nomadic tribes coming from areas now in modern day mongolia and manchuria. the wall stretches over a formidable 6,350 km (3,946 miles), from shanhai pass on the bohai gulf in the east, at the limit between china proper and manchuria, to lop nur in the southeastern portion of xinjiang uygur autonomous region. the first major wall was built during the reign of the first emperor, the main emperor of the short-lived qin dynasty. this wall was not constructed as a single endeavor, but rather was created by the joining of several regional walls built by the warring states. it was located much further north than the current great wall, and very little remains of it. a defensive wall on the northern border was built and maintained by several dynasties at different times in chinese history. the great wall that can still be seen today was built during the ming dynasty, on a much larger scale and with longer lasting materials (solid stone used for the sides and the top of the wall) than any wall that had been built before. the primary purpose of the wall was not to keep out people, who could scale the wall, but to insure that semi-nomadic people on the outside of the wall could not cross with their horses or return easily with stolen property.history of the wallthe great wall was originally built in the spring, autumn, and warring states periods as a defensive fortification by the three states: yan, zhao and qin. the great wall went through constant extensions and repairs in later dynasties. in fact, it began as independent walls for different states when it was first built, and did not become the great wall until the qin dynasty. emperor qin shihuang succeeded in his effort to have the walls joined together to fend off the invasions from the huns in the north after the unification of china. since then, the great wall has served as a monument of the chinese nation throughout history. a visit to the great wall is like a tour through the history backwards; it brings tourists great excitement in each step of the wall. protection of the wallwhile the effects of nature are gradual and may take effect over a quite lengthy period, the deliberate destruction by man could totally deplete the wall in a very short space of time.culture of the wallthe great wall has long been incorporated into chinese mythology and popular symbolism. the most beautiful of several legends is about the collapse of a section of the great wall caused by meng jiangnu, who cried bitterly over the death of her husband in the construction of the great wall. this legend has been spread widely through textbooks, folk songs and traditional operas. it is well-known in china. sample case 2: old town of lijiangthe old town of lijiang, a well-preserved old city of ethnic minorities with brilliant culture, is a central town of the lijiang autonomous county of the naxi ethnic minority in yunnan province. the old town which occupies an area of three point eight square kilometers (912 acres) was firstly built in the late song dynasty and the early yuan dynasty and has a history of more than 800 years. since kublai khan who is the first emperor of the yuan dynasty set his reign here, lijiang was on a fast developmental way and became the political, cultural, and educational center in this area, playing a very important role in the trading activities among yunnan, china hinterland, tibet, india and many other asian countries. the lijiang old town is built along the lie of mountains and the flow of rivers, providing a very precious sample of the research on the old-time architecture. the old town is the only old city built without a city wall and there is an i
