The Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院) fire has been put out, but its wooden roof have been largely damaged. The terrible accident causes a sudden sharp pain to people around the world, “What a pity that we cannot see the damaged parts of the wonder anymore.”

But the good news is that there is at least one way of seeing them, namely via a video game called Assassin's Creed: Unity. In this game, the player can travel to one city after another and enter the buildings exactly like what they are in reality, and see Notre Dame as it was before the fire. In addition, with VR technology, which is already quite mature, one can even look around the undamaged Notre Dame as if it is still there. Maybe digital technology could help to better protect architectural cultural heritage.

The idea of digitizing ancient buildings, making digital models of them so their data can be saved, dates back to the 1990s and the necessary technology has continued to advance since then. By scanning the ancient buildings with lasers, building 3D models with hundreds of images, as well as measuring everything precisely, engineers can make a copy as “same” as the real one.

As computers and smartphones are hugely popular，the digital replica or digital copy has great pratical value. First, it allows tourists to feel the cultural relics without touching them, which helps protect them. The virtual tour of Dunhuang Grottoes in Gansu Province is a good example of this as tourists can view the paintings without standing near them. Furthermore, it can make the digitized cultural relics more famous by spreading awareness about them via the Internet. In 2000, a virtual tour of the Great Wall became very popular at the Hannover World Expo, which increased the number of foreign tourists visiting it in the following years. Above all, it preserves all the information of the cultural relics. Even if the original ones are damaged one day, people can still know what they were like and can build a replica if desired.

Time is the biggest problem to architectural heritage. Maybe we will have better technologies in the future，but the digital technology offers a practical way to preserve architectural cultural heritage at the moment.

1.Which of the following statement is true?

A.The big fire has damaged the whole Notre Dame.

B.Only people in Paris felt pain for losing Notre Dame.

2.What will engineers do to create a digital replica of the ancient buildings?

A.Scan the photos of the buildings B.Build 3D models of full size.

C.Improve the technology needed. D.Measure all the parts exactly.

3.How does the author prove the digital copy has vital practical importance?

C.By giving examples. D.By classification.

4.What is the best title of the passage?

A.The Damage of Notre Dame

The Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院) fire has been put out, but its spire (尖顶) and a large portion of its wooden roof have been damaged. The terrible destruction causes a sudden sharp pain to people around the world. “What a pity that we cannot see the damaged parts of the wonder anymore.”

But the good news is that there is at least one way of seeing them, namely through a video game called Assassin’s Creed: Unity.

Of course, however precise a model is, it is not the original. Maybe we will have better technologies in the future, but the digital technology offers a practical way to preserve architectural cultural heritage at the moment.

A disastrous fire surrounded Notre Dame（巴黎圣母院）destroyed large parts of the Gothic architecture on Monday.

“Notre Dame is our history, our literature, part of our spirit, the place of all our great events, our wars, our liberations, the center of our lives” French President Emmanuel Macron told reporters in front of the still burning Paris landmark and promised to rebuild Notre Dame.

“Notre Dame is burning, and I know the sadness felt by so many fellow French people. But tonight, I’d like to speak of hope too, ”he said, announcing the launch of a fundraising campaign.

“Let’s be proud, because we built this cathedral（大教堂）more than 800 years ago, we’ve built it and, throughout the centuries, let it grow and improve it. So I gravely（严肃地）say tonight: we will rebuild it together. ” he added.

The disastrous fire engulfed（吞没）the upper reaches of Paris' towering Notre Dame Cathedral as it was undergoing renovations（翻新）.

Tourists and Parisians looked on horrified from the streets below. France’s Interior Ministry said firefighters might not be able to save the structure.

The fire collapsed the cathedrals’　 spire（尖顶）and spread to one of its landmark towers “Everything is burning; nothing will remain from the frame,” Notre Dame spokesman Andre Finot told French media. The 12th-century cathedral is home to incalculable（不可计算的）works of art and is one of the world's most famous tourist attractions, due to Victor Hugo’s novel The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

The cause of the fire was not known, but French media quoted the Paris fire brigade（消防队）as saying the fire is “potentially linked” to a 6 million- euro（$6.88 million）renovation project on the church’s spire and its 250 tons of lead.

B.The cathedral is repeatedly mentioned in the novel.

C.The novel became a bestseller thanks to the cathedral.
