Preserve old buildings, band 9 answer, Part 3, Speaking, IELTS, by Dr. An An

2 Do you think we should preserve old buildings in cities? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt! After so many years through thick and thin, ancient buildings are no longer just soulless bricks and timbers but are quiet yet living witnesses of various historical events, marking the distinctive flavour, cultures, and lifestyles of a community, a society, or a country, linking to the place’s tangible past. Their prominent features are their intrinsic merit that serves as an indicator of the local historical roots. Not only do they add to the aesthetics and cultural values of the area, but also they have a positive impact on the environment as most old buildings were constructed with a very much higher-quality materials such as rare hardwood from extinct primary forests, which might make a century-old building more charming in the long-term than its modern-day equivalents. Original and authentic features in listed buildings deserve preservation as they mark and celebrate a building’s special architectural and historic interest. That’s why we must plant pears for our heirs by preserving age-old buildings, giving our future generations a precious chance to perceive the history through these magnificently solid architectures instead of just through imaginary pictures.
