十年前.六位专家教授为本刊创刊号写了专稿。杂志如今十岁,六位专家也都寿添二五。应本刊编辑部之请,他们又都欣然命笔,热忱如初。这无论是对编者对读者,都是极可庆幸、令人感奋的事。在此,我们衷心祝愿,二十世纪的最后岁月,神州大地风调雨顺,国泰民安。待到2000年,如若《世界建筑》有幸尚存.那时,它的编辑部,一定还要再次邀请这六位老者,为我们的读者,写下更绚丽的篇章。——编者 Ten years ago, six experts and professors wrote special articles for the publication. The magazine is now ten years old and six experts have also added twenty-five. In response to the request of the editorial department of the journal, they were all eager to write and enthusiasm. This is an extremely fortunate and exciting event for both editors and readers. Here, we sincerely wish that in the last years of the 20th century, the land of China will be well-adjusted and the country will be peaceful. Until 2000, if “World Architecture” had the honour of surviving, then its editorial department must again invite the six old men to write more brilliant chapters for our readers. --editor
