I want to get information for my essay class.
So, Do you think to know our own country's history is important?
If you think so, Why do you think so? |

If you want to know where you are going, it is useful to know where you have been. (That way you can avoid the tragedy of going in circles!)

I think that's important because people from other countrys often think about the history to find the character of a nation. We should know the history because it influence our way of thinking. |

Back in my high school years, I was sooo sick of history class. I always fell asleep during the history class.
I remember, once, I fell asleep again in history class, then my teacher woke me up and asked me:"can you tell me what's the name of the first emperor of Qing Dynasty?"
I didn't know the answer, and at that moment, I was still so tired and a little unconscious that I bursted out the teacher's name! he got very furious:"what?? me? the first emperor of Dynasty? listen! he's gone!! but I am still alive!!"
I didn't know what to say, so I said:"sorry, teacher, then I am gone." |

I didnt like history lessons during high school times too,but I think we have much lesson to learn from history indeed..
The only problem about history is its reliability I think.
