Track 7, Reading 4A, Living Treasures,
2
The Tower of Pisa, Machu Picchu, The Taj Mahal.
3
You probably know them as famous UNESCO World Heritage Sites, structures and monuments of great cultural value.
4
But what about the Mediterranean Diet, the Beijing Opera, or the art of pizza making in Naples?
5
What do these have in common?
6
Traditions like these are known as intangible cultural heritage.
7
In contrast to UNESCO World Heritage Sites, intangible heritage does not include buildings like palaces and temples.
8
Instead, it includes traditional art forms such as music,
9
dance, and craft making, living traditions that are an important part of a place's culture.
10
UNESCO began to identify cultural traditions in 2008.
11
Among the first on their list were the Puppet Theatre of Sicily and Mexico's Day of the Dead Festival.
12
By 2017 UNESCO had approved more than 300 diverse practices.
13
These include cultural events like the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival, performing arts including Spanish flamenco,
14
martial arts such as Brazilian capoeira and Korean tequion, and handicrafts like Japanese washi papermaking.
15
In 2010, UNESCO also began to include important regional cuisines, starting with French and Mexican food.
16
Other types of food and drink have since been added, such as Korean kimchi and Croatian gingerbread.
17
Arabic coffee was included in 2015.
18
The sharing of coffee has been an important aspect of Arab hospitality for centuries, according to UNESCO, and is a symbol of generosity.
19
Protecting cultural roots Cultural rituals are an important part of the UNESCO list.
20
An example is the Clemsen wedding ritual in Algeria.
21
The ritual begins in the bride's parents' home, where friends and female relatives help the bride prepare for the ceremony.
22
The bride is first dressed in a golden silk dress.
23
Symbolic henna designs are applied to her hands.
24
Before leaving the house for the ceremony, her face is wrapped in a golden silk veil.
25
Later, during the wedding feast, the bride removes her veil, ready to be married.
26
The tradition has passed from one generation to the next and marks the community's cultural identity.
27
Some of the cultural items on the list are dying out and in need of protection.
28
An example is al-Sadu, traditional weaving in the United Arab Emirates.
29
The tradition was once widely practiced by communities of desert Bedouin women.
30
However, many Bedouin have now moved to cities, and so the practice has begun to disappear.
31
Today, al-Sadhu is mostly practiced by older women whose numbers are declining.
32
The main goal of UNESCO is to promote peace through respect for the world's varied cultures and common humanity.
33
It hopes that by bringing attention to cultural traditions such as al-Sadhu, they will be more likely to survive.
34
Cultural traditions are important to fight for, says Cecile Duvel of UNESCO.
35
The more globalized the world becomes, she says, the more important it is not to lose these traditional roots.

Об этом уроке

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
