    It is because of the constant change of the world that we feel a need to grasp something unchangeable. It can always be found in the study of history.
    It is said that there is nothing new in the world, so we can draw on the experience of our ancestors. History helps children better and deeper understand the changing world and develop their sensibility, judgment and adaptability in their personal life. Such qualities help students avoid many mistakes and better prepare for a successful and rewarding future life.
    History is also about culture and tradition due to its regional and racial features. It reminds us of our root and enhances our sense of identity. Children learning history can better appreciate their traditional culture.
    NO
    History is about everything that happened in the past; therefore it has nothing to do with our present life, which has changed into a completely different one. Studying history is a waste of time and it should be removed from school curriculum since it has nothing to do with job hunting.
    People often say " Those who don’t understand history will repeat the mistakes of the past. " I totally disagree. I don’t see any evidence that shows people have made smart decisions based on their knowledge of the past. To me, the present is important, not the past.

答案 The Importance of Learning History Many subjects like computing and engineering can engage lots of students, with classrooms completely packed every time; while other majors like history are losing popularity simply because the study of them is considered to be a futile effort. As a matter of fact, children can benefit greatly from learning history. They can draw lessons from the past experience, develope a better understanding of the world and the traditional culture. In my view, I’m firmly in support of the necessity of learning history. First and foremost, learning history can help children make right decisions. It is said that history always repeats itself and it really does so. Therefore, it’s important to look back so that kids can learn from the past mistakes and ensure that they won’t make the same ones as their ancestors did. Besides, students can learn new modes of thinking from studying history. If they encounter problems in reality, they’ll probably find hints or solutions from history. Last but not least, since history is a part of culture, students can learn to appreciate the culture of a country through learning its history. In sum, studying history is neither easy nor impractical, and it can bring important knowledge to children so as to let them achieve the goal of learning from the historical experience.
