张宇墨同学的课程学习报告

按课堂讨论方向整理的课后复习改进版，非课堂最终定稿。文章同意'国家应保护文化认同'这一大目标，但不同意'所有新建筑都必须采用传统风格'这一手段。

Introduction 开头段

Some people think that all new buildings in a country should be designed in traditional styles in order to protect its cultural identity. While I agree that countries should protect their cultural identity, I strongly disagree with this approach because it is impractical, inefficient, and often fails to produce authentic traditional architecture.（有些人认为，一个国家所有的新建筑都应该采用传统风格来保护自己的文化认同。虽然我同意国家应该保护文化认同，但我强烈不同意这种做法，因为它不切实际、效率低下，而且往往做不出真正地道的传统建筑。）

Body Paragraph 1: Land and resources 土地与资源

From a land-use perspective, modern cities face serious shortages of space. Traditional buildings usually have lower density and take up more land per person. Modern buildings, by contrast, can accommodate more people on the same piece of land, which is essential for growing populations.（从土地利用的角度来看，现代城市面临严重的空间短缺。传统建筑通常密度较低、人均占地更多。相比之下，现代建筑可以在同一块土地上容纳更多人，这对不断增长的人口来说至关重要。）

Body Paragraph 2: Functionality 功能性

From a functional perspective, modern buildings are better suited to contemporary needs. They can be equipped with modern facilities such as elevators, air-conditioning, and flexible office spaces. Traditional styles may look attractive, but they cannot always meet the demands of modern life and work.（从功能性的角度来看，现代建筑更适合当代需求。它们可以配备电梯、空调和灵活的办公空间等现代设施。传统风格可能看起来很有吸引力，但未必总能满足现代生活和工作的需求。）

Body Paragraph 3: Authenticity and cost 真实性与成本

From a historical authenticity perspective, copying old styles often produces poor imitations. Traditional buildings in the past required skilled craftsmanship and a great deal of time and money. Today, few builders have the skills or the budget to recreate them properly, so the result can look inauthentic and cost far too much.（从历史真实性的角度来看，模仿古老风格往往只能做出劣质仿品。过去的传统建筑需要熟练工艺，还需要大量时间和金钱。如今，很少有建筑商拥有足够的技术或预算去正确复刻它们，所以结果可能看起来不伦不类，而且成本过高。）

Counter-argument insight 反方深化

Moreover, cultural identity is not only about protecting the past; it can also be created through modern architecture. Cities like Hong Kong and Dubai attract millions of tourists not because of old-style buildings, but because their modern skylines have become symbols of their identity.（此外，文化认同不只是保护过去；它也可以通过现代建筑来创造。像香港和迪拜这样的城市吸引数百万游客，不是因为老式建筑，而是因为它们现代的天际线已经成为城市认同的象征。）

Conclusion 结论段

In conclusion, protecting cultural identity is important, but forcing all new buildings into traditional styles is not the right solution. A more practical way is to preserve existing historic buildings while allowing new construction to meet modern needs.（总之，保护文化认同很重要，但强迫所有新建筑都采用传统风格并不是正确的解决方案。更实际的方法是保护现有的历史建筑，同时允许新建筑满足现代需求。）

Task 2 大作文 课堂上确定了提纲与立场，未在课上完成完整英文全文

开头段：承认保护文化认同的必要性，明确表达不同意'所有新建筑必须传统风格'。

正文段1：土地与资源利用角度——现代建筑密度更高，更适合城市人口聚集。

正文段2：功能性角度——现代建筑更能满足当代生活和工作需求。

正文段3：真实性与成本角度——仿古难以复制原貌，成本高且容易不伦不类。

可补充：文化认同也可以通过现代建筑创造。

结论段：保护现有古建筑，新建筑按现代需求建造。
