书面表达(参考范文)
Cultural heritage, whether tangible like historical sites or intangible like traditional arts, forms the soul of a nation. It connects us to our roots and shapes our identity. However, many heritage items are at risk due to neglect or modernization.
As teenagers, we can contribute in practical ways. First, we should learn about local heritage by visiting museums or attending cultural events. Second, we can use social media to raise awareness among peers. Finally, respecting heritage sites during trips—by not carving on walls or littering—matters greatly.
Let’s act now to become guardians of our cultural legacy. Together, we can ensure that future generations inherit a world rich in history and tradition.
