The UK is eroding its global reputation for conserving its “unparalleled” historic assets, culture bodies have warned, with Stonehenge expected to be next in line to lose its coveted World Heritage status after Liverpool.

文化團體表示英國正在毀壞自身享譽全球的保護歷史遺跡美名。繼利物浦後,巨石陣也可能被列入除名名單。


The UN’s heritage body has told ministers that Wiltshire’s cherished stone circle will be placed on its “in danger” list – the precursor to it being stripped of world heritage status – if a £1.7bn road tunnel goes ahead as planned.

precursor (n.) 前兆

strip (v.) 除去


如果耗資十七億的隧道工程如期進行,威爾特郡寶貴的巨石陣遺跡將被列入瀕危名單作為除名前策。


Heritage bodies said on Friday that Unesco would throw a “harsher spotlight” on the UK’s other 31 listed sites, which include the Palace of Westminster and Kew Gardens, after Liverpool became only the third place in nearly 50 years to be stripped of its world heritage status.

the Palace of Westminster (n.) 西敏寺

Kew Gardens (n.) 邱園


利物浦是近五十年來唯三被除名的遺跡之一,聯合國教育科學及文化組織未來將更加關注西敏宮、邱園等英國其他三十一處世界遺產。
