Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward . If we always reproduced what was there before,we would all still be living in caves . Thus , I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different , even though that might be the more risky choice.

　　What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?

　　Some of them are not attractive.

　　We should reproduce the same old buildings.

　　Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.
