6 News English from bbclearningenglish.com Hello and welcome to 6 Minute English, I'm Alice.
And I'm Neil.
So, Neil, what's the best holiday you've ever had?
Ooh, that would be scuba diving on the Great Barrier Reef off the coast of Australia.
Ooh!
It was awesome.
I saw sharks, sea turtles, manta rays.
I certainly don't like the idea of coming nose to nose with a shark.
But then diving isn't really my thing.
I'm more into cultural holidays, you know,
visiting the ruins of ancient civilizations.
Oh, that's very worthy, Alice.
But tourists are actually damaging a number of important sites around the world,
tramping around, dropping litter,
scribbling graffiti everywhere.
I would never drop litter or scribble graffiti.
Well, we're talking about World Heritage sites today,
which are places UNESCO considers to be at risk from various threats and in need of protection.
