Argument: Some people believe that old buildings should be protected by law. Others, however, think that they should be replaced by new buildings. Discuss both these views and give your own opion.

In present-day society, many cities face the issue of whether old buildings should be replaced by new buildings or not. As I see it, old buildings should be maintained.

Historic buildings certainly have much value in various ways. In the first place, a large number of historic buildings represent specific historical figures or events. To be more exact, if such buildings were razed (tàn phá), there would be no precise representation of the corresponding figures and events anymore.Futher, some historic dwellings embody the unique lifestyle of ethnic buildings were demolished because of current urban needs. Last but not least, many historic buildings have outstanding aesthetic value. That means any replication (sự tái tạo) can never show the ancient craftmanship accurately.

Surely, due to the rapid increase of urban population, some historic buildings should be knocked down in order to make room for high-rise apartment buildings. Yet a more sensible solution to this problem can be developing urban transport so that people can easily live in nearby suburbs and commute easily every day.

To conclude, though old buildings may have occupied a lot of urban space, their value should not be neglected. In light of the above factors, I firmly believe that historic buildings must be looked after by modern cities.

Argument: International tourism has become a huge industry in the world. Some people think that the problems caused byy international tourism outweigh the benefits. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

At the present time, international tourism is a big industry. Meanwhile, whether this trend has more benefits or more problems is a frequent topic of discusion. From my perspective, international tourism is definitely beneficial in many ways.

International tourism creates great benefits on different levels. First and foremost, it provides individuals opportunities to see a different culture firsthand. According to my observation, visitting another country is a comprehensive experience, which is much more enjoyable than staring at another culture on a computer screen. Additonally, international tourism boots the economy of the host country. Take Australia as an example.During the previous decade, international tourism has produced numerous knowledge ganined during overseas trips certainly helps eliminate a range of stereotypes tourists have about the host country. In this way, individuals can expand their outlook and become worldlier.

Of course, non-bioegradable litter left behind by tourists poses a big threat to the host country. Nonetheless, tourist destinations can certainly establish relevant laws and regulations so that this issue can be addressed. Once the economy of the host country has been enhanced by international tourism, it would be easier for the local goverment to implement effective strategies to solve this problem.'

To sum up, in spite of the fact that international tourism may impede the environment of tourist destinations, the advantages of international tourism surely outbalance its disadvantages.
