In order to limit damage to Egyptian architecture and prevent the loss of cultural relics, a committee     1     (establish). Different departments were expected to make their contributions to the protection of the cultural heritage. Great efforts have also been made by experts and scientists who put forward a proposal for     2    these buildings could be saved. After all parties came to     3    agreement, a document was signed and the work began in 1960.

The Mogao Grottoes, a world-renowned     1     (culture) heritage site in Dunhuang, contains 735 caves and more than 45,000 square meters of murals. Their preservation could not have been done     2     the dedication of countless guardians across     3     (generation). Among them, Fan Jinshi, former president of the Dunhuang Academy, is an illustrative one.

Fan first trekked all the way to Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes in July 1963 shortly after     4     (graduate) from college. She kept a dream to protect the national cultural heritage     5     remained there for more than 50 years. Over the past decades, she     6     (put) down roots in the desert, as if her life and Dunhuang’s have blended into one. Thus she has become known as “Daughter of Dunhuang”.

Fan has made outstanding contributions to the cause of “protecting, studying and carrying forward” Dunhuang Grottoes through her work. She was the first     7     (suggest) the “Digital Dunhuang” concept in the late 1980s to preserve the murals,     8     (paint) sculptures and historical data in Dunhuang Caves permanently. She also     9     (active) promoted the popularization of the Dunhuang culture.

Now, 85-year-old Fan Jinshi,     10     still works very hard to protect and manage the caves, is as busy as ever, “I’ve done all I could for Dunhuang,” she says.
