Answer 1

One possible version

Recently we have discussed the question whether Yuanmingyuan should be rebuilt, and different opinions are given about it.

Some students are in favor of the plan, since the reconstruction will exhibit the original beauty of Yuanmingyuan. In this way we can preserve China’s old architecture. But its reconstruction will give us our dignity back. What's more, it can show how prosperous China has become.

Other students, however, are strongly against the plan. They think that Yuanmingyuan, as it stands today, keeps the truth of history, thus reminding China of its shameful history when European imperialists bullied it. Not only will rebuilding cost money, but it will also turn the site into another tacky tourist trap, losing all its precious value.

Personally, I advocate keeping Yuanmingyuan as it is. Reconstruction may destroy it as a heritage site. Besides, it will take a great deal of money and human power, which could be better used to improve the backward conditions in certain areas of China.
