Some people think studying from the past offers no benefit to today’s life, while others believe that history is a valuable source of information for us. Discuss both views and give our own opinion.

#people #benefit #today’s #life #history #source #information

The present state that we are in today is the outcome of our past. Whatever topic or

subject

it may be it is still an important source of knowledge for all of us. does it really matter if it's in the past? Or some people nowadays are just too lazy to overlook our ancient

history

To begin

with, let me share with you my own experience with

this

matter. When I was in college, we had the

subject

"Rizal", it's an anecdote about Jose P. Rizal who's said to be the National Hero of the Philippines. It was discussed how he fought for our country and he's the reason why the Philippines has experienced independence. Some of my classmates argued, "why do we have to take

this

subject

?" if we are studying our asses off to become a Nurse. Definitely, they would think that there's no benefit or there's nothing important about

this

subject

. They explained that for them it's just a waste of time and effort.

However

, I think they're just too lazy to learn about

this

certain person. And

thus

, they argued how irrelevant

this

subject

was.

On the other hand

, I am one of those who believed that a past of a certain country or person is important. Whatever or whomever we are today is greatly influenced by our

history

. In order to be aware of our past, we should be educated with that information.

Therefore

, it is probably right to include

history

in all academic aspects of education. Well, we should know how we were able to relish the freedom and situation we have in the present. In conclusion,

history

is important so matter how boring it is or how interested a person on the topic. As a saying goes "

History

repeats itself", it may repeat or reoccur someday but as learning it we are

also

prepared for it. In order to fully enjoy our present, we should be fully aware of our past.

In many countries, the number of animals and plants is declining. Why do you think this is happening? How can this issue be solved?
in many parts of the world, the number of flora and fauna is getting lower and lower. I believe that this is happening because humans are excessively exploiting those beings for their advantage, and the solution for this development is to recover their numbers using the help of technology and science.

Childhood obesity is an increasing problem in Australia. As many as two thirds of children are now obese. Shools have a responsibility to monitor what their studetnts eat and amount of exercise they do. To what extend do you agree with the statement?
There is no denying in saying that obesity has significantly increased in the younger generation, especially in Australia, which accounts for 16% of its adolescent population. Some believe that one's food intake and exercise habits can be monitored, and it is the school's responsibility. I completely agree with the notion and put forward the reasons for it.
