Answer 1

Last month in Paris, a French company auctioned two brone sculptures ---- a rat’s head and a rabbits head captured from China, which has aroused great public concern in China．

As is known to all, the two brone animal heads were made during the Qing Dynasty to decorate Yuanmingyuan．In 1860, the British and French troops broke into Beijing and burned down the royal garden, taking away millions of Chinese art works, including the two head relics．

The Chinese government is strongly against this auction and has repeatedly asked for the free return of them according to the international laws．At the same time, the Chinese people have taken actions, too．Some people even flew to France, trying to stop the selling．However, the French company just wouldn’t listen．

In my opinion, the auction should be strongly condemned．Not only has it hurt the feelings of the Chinese people but also brought shame to France．As middle school students, we must study harder so that we can make our country more powerful in the future and stop any such things from happening again．
