范文一：Protecting the Intangible Cultural Heritages

　　Like tangible cultural heritages such as the Great Wall and the Forbidden City, intangible cultural heritages like Peking Opera and Confucius-commemorating rituals are equally crucial. We should make our utmost efforts to preserve intangible heritages because, without their physical form of existence, they are in greater risk of extinction.

　　According to UNESCO’s Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage (20xx), all forms of social customs and habits, folklore, performing arts, rituals, oral traditions, festivals, traditional crafts and various knowledge and practices about nature and universe can be classified as intangible cultural heritages. As a country consisting of a great persity of ethnic groups and with time-honored history and civilization, China abounds in intangible cultural heritages. Cultural heritages connect modern people with the historical past, allowing them to acquire a cultural and historical identity. Without cultural heritages, we would be rendered absolutely rootless and we would find it hard to cope with challenges at present and in the future.

　　However, the modernization process poses mounting threats to intangible heritages. Many people have a blind faith in the latest electronic devices. It is also pathetic to see elderly people in possession of such legacies pass away without transmitting them to the younger generation. Faced with those challenges, we should both preserve and renovate our ancestral heritages so that we can help contribute to the cultural persity of the world and return to our spiritual homeland in this age of impersonal science and technology.

非物质文化遗产保护

　　像长城和紫禁城这样的有形文化遗产，像京剧和孔子纪念仪式这样的非物质文化遗产同样重要。我们应该尽最大努力去保护非物质遗产，因为没有它们的物质存在，它们就有更大的灭绝风险。

　　根据联合国教科文组织的公约对非物质文化遗产保护(20xx)，各种形式的社会风俗习惯、民俗、表演艺术、仪式、口头传统、节庆、传统手工艺、关于自然和宇宙的知识和实践可以分为非物质文化遗产。作为一个由多种多样的民族，拥有悠久的历史和文明的国家，中国丰富的非物质文化遗产。文化遗产将现代人与历史的过去联系起来，使他们获得了文化和历史的认同。如果没有文化遗产，我们就会变得完全无根，我们会发现很难应对当下及未来的挑战。

　　然而，现代化进程对无形遗产构成了威胁。许多人盲目相信最新的电子设备。看到拥有这种遗产的老人没有把它们传给年轻一代，这也是可悲的。面对这些挑战，我们既要保护和更新我们的祖先遗产，使我们能够帮助促进文化多样性的世界，并返回到我们的精神家园在这个时代的客观科学和技术。

But due to the development of globalization and other reasons， more and more non-material culture heritage are on the verge of distinction. So its protection has become an urgent and important task at present.

　　What is non-material culture heritage exactly? It refers to various manifestations of traditional culture handed down from generation to generation and closely related to people’s life， including various practices ，performances， festivals， traditional knowledge and skills， the related instruments， artifacts and culture places. For example， paper-cutting and Dragon Boat Festival have been regarded as non-material culture heritage not only by our country but also by the United Nations.

First of all， we can introduce special programs and columns on TV or in the newspapers and magazines to arouse people’s awareness of its preservation. Second， we should have a rational attitude towards the acceptance of foreign culture. Last but not least， we can enforce laws to intensify the protection of non-material culture heritage.
