Why do you think so many countries contributed funds and offered help to the Egyptian project
I think that many countries helped because Egyptian history and relics are world-famous and are highly valued around the world as part of our shared cultural history.
A lot of money and time were spent in protecting cultural heritage all around the world. Do you think it worthwhile or not
DEBATE
It is worthwhile to protect cultural heritage.
It is not worthwhile to protect cultural heritage.
Worthwhile
1. They are priceless and unique treasures.
2. They attract hundreds of thousands of visitors every year, which leads to a rise in national income.
3. They are irreplaceable pieces of world history.
4. They witnessed the development of world.
Not worthwhile
1. It’s a big burden/pressure to the Egyptians.
2. The old must give way to the new with economic development.
3. Though invisible from the outside, they are not the exact / very ones.
It's our responsibility!
　　History and culture are the soul of a country and we should preserve the nation’s historical and cultural heritage .
