B Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this qu
7、estion, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area.Not all historical buildings are attractive.However, there may be other reasonsfor example, economic reasonswhy they should be preserved.So, let us assume(假设) that historical buildings are both attracti
8、ve and important to the majority of people.What should we do then if a new building is needed? In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style.Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully ne
9、xt to old buildings.As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate(影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area. It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt(破坏) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some
10、old buildings too.Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas.I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative(保守的) and do not like change. Although we have to respect peoples feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect
11、 and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before,we would all still be living in caves .Thus , I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different , even though that might be the more risky choice.25.What does the aut

15、nvention in the field of communication in the history of mankind(人类).Communicating with others on the Internet is much faster. We can chat with a person who is sitting in the other part of the world. We can e-mail our friends and they can read the e-mails within a minute. Giving all kinds of informa
16、tion is probably the biggest advantage of the Internet. We can use search engines to find the information we need. Just type in a keyword or keywords and the search engine will give us a list of suitable websites to look at. We can enjoy a lot on the Internet by downloading games, visiting chat room
