Some people believe that
History
 is a primary subject at school, but others say subjects like
science
 and technology is more crucial than
history
. I think
science
 and technology need to be focused than
history
. The reasons will be followed later. I had been through the whole school grades in Japan, and a Japanese education system is focused on arts and mathematic subjects equally. In Japan, the high school students try to enrol on a university, they got to take tests which are included arts, math, English, and past. So we just learn
history
 to pass
this
 test, not for learning what our ancestors did in the past. And I can say that
this
 knowledge is useless for any student expects who intend to learn past to become an archaeologist.
On the contrary
,
this
 is a hypothetical situation, what if today's society and any automation are destroyed by an eruption or a big earthquake, we might have to harvest a farm to survive.
This
 is an opportunity to utilize historical knowledge that we learn from the subject of the past. To sum up, the exceptional situation that I wrote in the
second
 paragraph is unrealistic, and I believe that the past would not be useful when you enter a business society. But we have surrounded by-products or any services that are related to
science
 and machinery, so if someone who is sophisticated in
science
 or machinery they will survive in
this
 advanced society.
