　　2. Can you tell me something about historical music or films?

　　There are bunches historical music or films regarding to Sino-Japanese War. Although we now live a pretty peaceful life, many of Chinese population were slaughtered decades ago in Sino-Japanese War. So these films remind us of the history of that time period. For example, the film "Don Cunrui" does show us the story of a hero who holds the explosive to bomb out a blockhouse, sacrificing himself. These heroes should not be forgotten.

　　3. Is there any implied meaning of this building?

　　Bird's Nest looks like a nest, which we can know from its name. A bird nest is the spot in which a bird lays and incubates its eggs and raises its young. So this building does have the meaning of taking good care of life. It also looks like a cradle, which do have the meaning of good wishes for future. And one of the special parts of the construction is that there is no column and the whole building is connected with web structure. I guess it means that something amazing might happen in this sports arena.

　　4. What should government do if someone is against the proposal to restore the historical buildings

　　I think government should try to increase these people's awareness of protecting historical buildings. You know these buildings are usually of long histories, some of which can even be dated back to hundreds years ago. So it is common that these places need certain degree of restoration, or they might collapse or have similar problems. So the government should, first, tell those who against the proposal some possible problems these historical buildings are facing now. And, to convince them, government should also show these people the cultural and historical value of these buildings.

　　5. Does everyone think old buildings are important?

　　No, not everyone. Some of us might think these buildings are shabby. Usually they are not well-equipped and the design is always outdated. That's why many people living close to Nanjing Rd. in Shanghai always hope government can implement house demolition in that region. You know, they are currently living in very old buildings, having to share restrooms and kitchens with others. Many of them choose to move out and rent out these old buildings to those from rural areas.
