People are now banned from climbing Uluru in the desert of Australia’s Northern area. Uluru is one of the most sacred1 sites in indigenous2 Australian culture. It is the world’s largest stone. The site is now off-limits to climbers. The site used to be called Ayers Rock. It has been a major attraction. Tourists crowded there to climb the rock. However， it is a sacred site in Anangu culture.
The ban was first announced3 in 2017. Most visitors complied4 with it. A local Anangu man who grew up near Uluru said，“That place is a very sacred place. That’s like our church. I’ve been telling them since I was a little boy，‘We don’t want you to climb the rock. All of our stories are on the rock.’” He said tourists who climbed the rock had no respect.
現在人们被禁止攀登澳大利亚北部沙漠中的乌鲁鲁巨石。乌鲁鲁巨石是澳大利亚土著文化中最神圣的地方之一。它是世界上最大的单体岩石，现在禁止登山者攀爬。乌鲁鲁巨石曾被称为艾尔斯岩。它一直是个重要的游览胜地。游客成群结队地涌向那里攀登那块岩石。然而，它是阿南古（澳大利亚土著部落之一）文化中的圣地。
2017年首次宣布了这项禁令。大多数游客都遵守了。当地一位在乌鲁鲁附近长大的阿南古人说：“那是一个非常神圣的地方。就像我们的教堂。我从小就告诉他们，‘我们不想让你们去爬那块岩石。我们所有的故事都与那块岩石有关。’”他说，游客攀登岩石是对岩石和他们的不尊重。
Discussion议一议：
1. Should Uluru be respected and not be climbed？ 应该尊重乌鲁鲁巨石并且不去攀爬它吗？
2. How can we understand more about the culture of places we visit？ 我们怎样才能对造访的地方有更多的了解？
