as well as
 outlines some reasons that make me believe
history
 should be studied widely. On the one hand,
people
 who think
history
 is nothing more than another boring subject that has no benefits at all, their thinking is rather than wasting time on the past, we should concentrate on other crucial subjects like science, as it will benefit us directly, rather than
history
 which tends to be theoretical with no physical benefits.
for instance
, we use soap to clean our hands as a part of chemistry but what we will do with
history
? it is provides nothing but stories that can not be guaranteed either.
On the other hand
,
people
 who direction toward focusing on
history
 as it is the key to understanding life, saying so do I, time repeats itself, and we should be prepared not to make the same mistakes that our ancients did,
in addition
, we should study the historical events carefully and learning the factors that lead to the end of many nations in the past,
as a result
, many
people
 say
history
 is the best teacher.
To conclude
,
History
 is a wise teacher whom we should listen to him rather than ignore , despite the viewpoints of some to abandon
history
 behind our backs, I believe
history
 is a holy book that we should recite well.
