Most students are usually introduced to the study of history by way of a fat textbook and become quickly immersed in a vast sea of names, dates, events, and statistics. The students’ skills are then tested by examinations that require them to show how much of the data they remember. From this experience a number of conclusions seem obvious; the study of history is the study of "facts" about the past; the more "facts" you know, the better you are as a student of history. But in this way students may become confused upon discovering that historians often disagree sharply. They discover that historians dealing with the same event may come to quite different conclusions about it.
Obviously, there is no easy solution to this problem. Historians disagree because each historian views the past from a particular perspective. Once students grasp this, they have taken the first step toward being able to evaluate the work of various historians. But before they can take this first step, students must consider a problem they have more or less taken for granted. They must ask themselves what history really is.
The word history has several meanings. In its broadest sense, it denotes the whole of the human past. More restricted is the notion that history is the recorded past, that is, that part of human life which has left some sort of record such as folk tales, artifacts, or written documents. Finally, history may be defined as that which historians write about the past.
What do most history teachers require their students to do, according to the first paragraph?
选项
A、They ask their students to read a lot of history books.
B、They make their students show interest in names, dates, events, and statistics.
C、They ask their students to take many examinations.
D、They make students get involved in many names, dates, events and statistics, and keep them in mind.
答案
D
解析
文中第一段第二句说:“学生的技能随后在考试中得到检测,这种考试就是要看看他们记住了多少史实。”由此可以推断出,选项D符合文意。
