答案 The cartoon shows that with the permission of a municipal government, the real estate developer with his hands behind his back is kicking "historic architecture" out. The characteristic historical sites will be replaced by monotonous apartment complexes. The captions indicates that "Should we preserve the historical architectures?" Some would argue that "holding onto the past" is costly or unnecessary, but China’ s historic buildings should be cherished for its rich cultural and educational value. For instance, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven and the Summer Palace are all treasures of the past that are part of the Chinese people’s identity and a window into China’s history. Another factor that it merits preservation is the aesthetic value it provides to many cities. In other words, historic buildings tend to be elaborate and beautiful, with intricately detailed ornamentation, vibrant tones and complex color harmonies. Every time an ancient structure is demolished, a part of history is lost forever. Thus, by making the preservation of historic architecture a high priority, there is still hope to hold on to the countless other treasures of Chinese history that still remain standing.
