Describe a beautiful city
Part 3 Follow Up Questions
- What are the differences between modern towns and modern cities?
Modern towns and modern cities are not much different. All facilities are now available at both
places. However, there are 2 major differences. First difference is that cities have more density of
population. Secondly, life is a bit slower in modern towns than in cities. - How can people preserve historical buildings?
There is so much people can do in this respect. I believe that the role of people is to visit them more
often with friends and family, so that the government can have funds to maintain these buildings.
Secondly, people should refrain from littering these places and writing on the walls. And finally,
they should not indulge in vandalism. - Why do some people like to visit historical places?
People go to historical cities to learn/gain knowledge about the past, the way of life of the people in
the past, their culture, their roots, and the architecture. - Why do people go to modern cities?
People visit modern cities for various purposes. Some go for work/business reasons, and some for
tourism. Those who travel for pleasure to modern cities do so to experience a life, where modern
technology is incorporated in every aspect of life and to learn and see how people there are using
technology in their daily lives. Singapore is a very good example of such a city, where we can not
only experience the modern way of life, but also see how they have used modernization to help
preserve and enrich the environment. - What are the problems caused in maintaining historical cities?
The problems that maintenance of historical cities can cause are related to the funds required for
the restoration and upkeep of the city. Another issue could be the pressure on the resources of
that city because of tourism. Besides these buildings May ale up too much space which may
otherwise be used for other purposes. - Do you think having too many tourists is a positive thing for historical attractions?
No, I don’t think so. I believe that too many tourists will lead to pollution and also will affect the
upkeep of the historical sites. Such sites need a lot of care and maintenance and limiting the
number of visitors to such sites can help maintain them, prevent damage to such sites, and also
sustain tourism.
7 What can we do to stop visitors from damaging historical places?
To prevent the damage to historical places by the visitors many measures can be taken. There
should be strict punishments, like high fines for the people who try to cause harm. There should be
security personnel employed to ensure that no one tries to damage the historical places and along
with that there should be security cameras installed to monitor the activities of the tourists. There
can be tourist guides appointed, who also can ensure that no one causes any damage.
8 Do you think too many tourists is a positive thing for historical attractions?
In my opinion having too many tourists has both advantages and disadvantages.
It ensures that our history and culture is passed to the future generation
It brings revenue and business for the people of the city where the historical attraction is.
Disadvantage: Too many tourists can cause damage to the historical attractions.
