Intangible Cultural Heritages
As we all know， non-material culture heritage， also called intangible culture， plays an important role in maintaining the continuity of the nation’s civilization and sustainable development. But due to the development of globalization and other reasons， more and more non-material culture heritage are on the verge of distinction. So its protection has become an urgent and important task at present.
What is non-material culture heritage exactly? It refers to various manifestations of traditional culture handed down from generation to generation and closely related to people’s life， including various practices ，performances， festivals， traditional knowledge and skills， the related instruments， artifacts and culture places. For example， paper-cutting and Dragon Boat Festival have been regarded as non-material culture heritage not only by our country but also by the United Nations.
Then how can we protect the intangible culture? First of all， we can introduce special programs and columns on TV or in the newspapers and magazines to arouse people’s awareness of its preservation. Second， we should have a rational attitude towards the acceptance of foreign culture. Last but not least， we can enforce laws to intensify the protection of non-material culture heritage.

非物质文化遗产
非物质文化遗产，又称非物质文化遗产，对于维护国家文明的持续性和可持续发展具有重要作用。但由于全球化的发展等原因，越来越多的非物质文化遗产濒临灭绝。因此，保护已成为当前一项紧迫而重要的任务。
什么是非物质文化遗产?它是指一代代传下来的与人们生活密切相关的传统文化的各种表现形式，包括各种习俗、表演、节日、传统知识和技艺、相关的乐器、器物和文化场所。例如，剪纸和端午节不仅被我国视为非物质文化遗产，而且被联合国视为非物质文化遗产。
那么我们如何保护非物质文化呢?首先，我们可以在电视或报纸和杂志上引入特别节目和栏目，以唤起人们对其保存的意识。第二，我们应该有一个理性的态度接受外国文化。最后，我们可以加强法律，加强非物质文化遗产的保护。
