21.（6分）Should weallow modernbuildings tobe builtnext to older buildingsin ahistoricarea ofa cityIn orderto answerthis question,we mustfirst examinewhetherpeople reallywant to preserve the historic feel of an area.Not allhistorical buildingsareattractive.However,there may be otherreasons—for example,economic reasons—why theyshouldbe preserved.So,let usassume thathistorical buildingsare bothattractive andimportanttothemajority ofpeople.What shouldwe dothen ifa newbuilding isneededIn myview,new architectural styles canexist perfectlywell alongsidean olderstyle.Indeed,there aremany examplesinmyown hometownof Tourswhere moderndesigns havebeenplaced verysuccessfully nexttoold buildings.As longasthebuilding inquestion is（影响）pleasing anddoes not dominate itssurroundings toomuch,it oftenimproves theattractivenessof thearea.（破坏）It istrue thatthere areexamples ofnew buildingswhich havespoilt thearea theyare in,but thesame canbe saidof someoldbuildingstoo.Yet peoplestill speakagainst newbuildingsin historicareas.I thinkthis issimply becausepeople arenaturally conservativeanddo not like change.Although wehavetorespect peoplesfeelings asfellow usersof thebuildings,I believethatit is the dutyof thearchitect andplanner tomove thingsforward.If wealwaysreproduced whatwas therebefore,we would all stillbe livingin caves.Thus,I would argueagainst copyingprevious architecturalstyles andchoose somethingfresh anddifferent,eventhough thatmight be the morerisky choice.
