Heritage（遗产） is traditional customs， culture and beliefs（信仰）． We use the world "heritage" in many different ways． People talk about their family heritage， their city's heritage， and their country's heritage．
Today， heritage is changing． The Internet connects people around the world． In many ways this is a good thing， because we can learn about the heritage of other countries， and we can show our own heritage to the world． However， some people worry that traditional heritage is disappearing． Think about it． In many ways， countries are becoming more and more alike（相似的）． In just about every country around the world， you can find MacDonald's， Nike Shoes， Starbucks coffee， and American movies． Some people think this is a good change， and others don't like it． You can decide whether or not you think it's a good thing． However， everyone wants to protect their traditional heritage， and sometimes this is hard． For example， when a new MacDonald's opens in your town， a traditional restaurant might have to close．
This is why heritage protection is so important． Heritage protection is a simple idea． It means keeping your country's or your city's heritage alive． People do this in many ways． The biggest part of heritage protection is probably preserving（保护） old buildings． A few other examples of heritage protection are making sure your children speak your traditional language， and teaching your heritage to children．
The world is changing very fast． This change brings a lot of good things． But as the world is changing， it is important to remember the heritage of our parents and our grandparents．

阅读下面语言材料，根据要求作答。根据短文内容，判断文后句子的正确(T)与错误（F）
“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the U.S.A greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks“ How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”.
Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone Asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think you’re Wrong...”But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.
People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person say “I’ve to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse: “Someone’s at the door.”“Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.
Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly that they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language.“How are you?” is another way of saying "Hello." or" Hi."
It is polite to say" No. I disagree I think you are wrong, "if you don’t agree with others.
When someone says "I have to go now "On the phone.it means he wants to go on talking.
"Someone is at the door." may be an excuse for finishing a phone.
Sometimes people don’t say exactly what they are thinking about just because they try to be nice to each other.
