NGA Preserving some of our old and historic buildings for future generations is necessary. We
can build modern buildings any time. However, once old buildings are destroyed, we can never
bring them back again. We may find these buildings unnecessary at the moment, but in the distant
future, they may become very important to our descendants. They may want to see those buildings
with their own eyes, not just look at pictures, or read descriptions of them.


TRANG We should preserve historic sites because they are of educational value. To be specific,
historic buildings are popular spots for field trips for various schools, ranging from primary
schools to high schools. In fact, my class was taken to the Temple of Literature, the first university
in Viet Nam, when I was in grade five. It was an interesting experience as it helped me and my
friends understand more about our educational system in the past.
LONG Old and historic buildings can be interesting tourist attractions. We may be astonished
by, and admire, their unusual and distinctive beauty. Local people enjoy experiencing their
country's history, but foreign visitors also want to see those buildings. They come from other
cultures and want to enjoy something different.
