2.Retell the text to each other using the notes from the text,
trying to use your own words.
1.Finish exercise 9 on P39.
There are many historical hutongs in China，some of which are in bad conditions.How about their tomorrow is it? Majority of people think it's important to protect them. They are important to attract foreign travellers to come and promote the development of economy. Minority of people think they are too old. It will cost too much money and time to maintain them. Besides that, they occupy too much room and they should be pulled down. However, I think it's definitely important to protect them. Although they are old, once you tear them down you can never rebuilt them. They are the sign and monument of ancient Chinese culture.
Conclusion
Over centuries, they changed so much. But they still exist in a new look now.
经过了几个世纪，它们改变了很多。如今，它们仍然以一种全新面貌存在着。它们是中国古代建筑的代表。不管如何改变，都应该被当做国家的宝贵财富而保存下来。
They are features of China’s ancient architecture.
No matter how they change, they should be preserved as treasures of China.
