在文化類話題中，我們需要去論述的主要有文化的特征、重要意義、傳統(tǒng)文化與外來文化等等問題，以及文化與經(jīng)濟和國家發(fā)展的結(jié)合。那么我們就一起通過一篇經(jīng)濟學(xué)人上的文章來學(xué)習(xí)一下有哪些好的表達。

1、Guarding precious and vulnerable places is one of the better things the UN’s cultural agency does—but it may topple over if it stretches too far.
　　Guard:守衛(wèi)，保衛(wèi)，比如英國的著名報紙就叫做the Guardian 《衛(wèi)報》。Precious and vulnerable: 寶貴的和易受傷害的，用于形容傳統(tǒng)建筑或者文化非常好。

2、Anyone who dreams of exercising authority (of a fairly benign sort) over the entire world—with a special remit for the planet’s most beautiful and fragile places—will enjoy perusing the 250 or so pages that contain the latest pronouncements from UNESCO’s World Heritage Committee.

most beautiful and fragile：最美的和脆弱的，用于形容文化遺產(chǎn)，替換剛才的Precious and vulnerable,注意雅思寫作的詞匯豐富性。
