The sentence: The government is preserving the heritages and culture of the city since (these/those) are always the attractions to tourists
I don't know whether these or those should be used in the sentence.
Either these or those / both of these and those could I use in the above sentence?
The sentence above always confuses me >>中文these這些those那些, 但這是近定是遠, 分不到, 對話時可以指著物件,知道近遠, 但敍述以上句子究竟heritages and culture是近定是遠, I cannot distinguish their differences.
文章中These and those 好難搞不清

✔ 最佳答案
一般的回答都是按直譯或直覺來說明these=這些/those=那些，但看來你就算思想上面對句子中的東西仍無法決定「那些」古蹟或文化是「近」還是「遠」，其實所謂近或遠是指跟那人描述的關係，所以你不是自己決定近遠，而是要看寫句子/內容裏所講的這些東西是他在講現在(或實物"近"他像是指住來講)還是在講未來/以往(或實物比較"遠"感覺是要遙望或不確定的)；另外還有當比較兩件事物時便會用these/those來分開講。由於這裏只是講一組東西(heritages and culture of the city)，而且是指住單一確實的主題，而且沒有另一樣東西要相對或比較，因此必定是用these。
以上嘗試把使用these/those可能要考慮的句子因素指出，希望以後你遇到更複雜句子時仍可以理解。

these
If something happened in the past, the usage of 'that' or 'those' is more appropriate.
On the other hand, we use 'this' or 'these'.
如果句子是用過去式，用‘that’或‘those’，其餘用'this' or 'these'。

The government is preserving the heritages and culture of the city since they are always the attractions to tourists.
The government is preserving the heritages and culture of the city since these, and not those of the villages, are always the attractions to tourists

these=這些/those=那些
The government is preserving the heritages and culture of the city since they are always the attractions to tourists.
They is better in the said sentence.

其實情況同中文一樣，
例句：政府正在保護城市中的傳統產物及文化，因為（這些／那些）都是非常吸引的旅遊景點。
在這句子中，我地會用（這些），
因為如果用（那些），就好似講緊第二樣野咁。
所以，如果一句句子一直都講緊同一個object，咁就用these，
不過有例外，例如講緊果樣野係好遠等等。

當我們描述的heritages and culture是先前已說過而大家都清楚是什麼heritages and culture , 我會用these。如果只是概括的提一提, 大家並無意識是那些, 我會用 those。

不難懂，these 是這些，those 是那些，你們的口頭禪，那些年，就是in those years 。
