Task2: When designing a building,the most important thing to take into account is the intended use of the building rather than its outward appearance. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

题目解析：当人们设计建筑时，最需要考虑的应该是建筑内部功能而非外观。此话题属于旅游文化大类，从历年考题来看，该小类话题出现频率并不是很高。与此话题最相似的为2005年12月17日考题：
It is more important for a building to serve a purpose than to look beautiful. Architects shouldn’t worry about producing building as a work of art. Do you agree or disagree? 

以下是中文思路：

 建筑的用途：随着生活水平的提高，人们对建筑各种功能的重视程度越来越高。

1.满足居民生活居住需求，比如通风向阳、完善的污水排水处理系统等

2 安全考虑。比如房子构造合理、具有抗震，防洪等功能。

3科技含量。低碳环保。比如在一些发达国家很多办公大楼采用环保建筑材料修建，不仅能在采光通风方面更具有优势，而且一定程度上能起到节约能源的环保效果。

建筑外观需求：房子也应该考虑艺术功能。

1、满足城市规划要求，保证城市的美观。一些经过设计师们根据时代需求建立的建筑，经受了时间考验，往往会变成具有独特艺术风格的老建筑，从而成为当地文化象征。

2、旅游景区的房子的艺术性可以带动旅游经济。比如在中国和美国的很多城市，设计者们会将欧洲各国的建筑风格融入到当地建筑，从而让游客们感到未出国门却仿佛置身异域风情。这些具有中西结合的建筑以其独特的风格吸引众多游客慕名前往，徜徉在这些建筑群中，游客们往往身心得到极大的放松。

When it comes to the design of a building, some people always believe that the function should be given the priority while the shape or appearance does not matter very much. Personally, I do not agree with this viewpoint.

Admittedly, there are multiple reasons why modern people attach more importance to the piratical use of buildings. Apart from basic shelter needs such as high level of ventilation, sufficient exposure to sunlight and efficient sewage system, safety is another vital factor taken into account by both designers and residents. For example, compared with houses made of mud and bricks in the past, apartments which consist of concrete and steel have sounder foundations and therefore are more likely to survive in natural disasters like hurricanes or earthquakes. Moreover, these days edifices and mansions constructed with Eco-friendly materials are becoming increasingly popular among city-dwellers, as they not only have an edge in terms of noise abatement, but also possess great potential of energy saving in the long run.

However, this does not mean that outward appearance does not deserve consideration when planning or designing new buildings and to some extent the artistic value of buildings brings numerous benefits for local people. To begin with, nowadays in many metropolises, newly-built skyscrapers or ordinary residences are required to meet the municipal city plan in order to maintain unique image of the whole city. Over the years, some of them which are carefully preserved might acquire unique artistic value and represent the cultural identity of the local area. In addition, some attractively-designed buildings can have a strong appeal to tourists, thereby boosting the economic development by increasing the tourism income. For instance, visitors in a city of China might have an opportunity to appreciate buildings of European architectural interest, in the same way; architecture with Chinese elements in Los Angeles can also fascinate groups of tourists from China.

In conclusion, I believe that the intended use of buildings will still be an essential factor when new buildings are designed or constructed in the future, but the exterior appearance should also be taken into account in this fast-changing society where artistic value is highly thought of.
