各位大神,请帮我改一下我的作文。自己感觉写的好像有点不切题,说理好像逻辑也不是很清楚,想知道应该怎么改。还请大家多指点,多指教。我作文一向不好,写的不好请大家多包涵,多见谅。


The author of this statement holds the viewthat studying history can lead people to realize that nowadays we are living ina time that is similar to those who lived in earlier times. I think this pointof view is extremely right so I strongly agree with the author. The story ofpast is a pair of glasses that helps us to have a better view of the present; akind of chart that leads people into the future. By knowing the present, we canunderstand how people and things are acting in these ways. By led into future,we can find relative answers to the questions we now face and thus create abetter world.


History can help us to understand the presentbetter. By knowing a bit about what has happened in our world, we can help seewhy things are the way they are as of known, what will happen in the future,how great minds work, how evil people think and much more. However, if we refuseto listen to history, we will find ourselves fabricating a past that doeseverything against the present. Therefore, learning history can help us dispelthis illusion and helps us to know the current situation.


By understanding what has happened in the pastand now, we can better understand what can happen in the future. If we avoidproblems that we have done, such as the Great Depression, we won’t have to dealwith that ever again. If we have read about a problem that should have beentaken cared of a long while ago, we should help out situations that arehappening now. All of these desired assumptions are based on one rule--thebasic rules to deal with problems, the values people having held should berelatively the same from the past to the future. So, even the world is progressingin a high speed, the basic rules of it stays, and will stay more or less thesame.


Some people may think this statement absurd. Intheir understanding, modern society is totally different from the past. We arenow living in a time of rapid changes, a time of progress. We are now living ina society that is so different from our ancestors that they are incapable ofshedding light on our experiences. They don’t believe that history can benefitour lives. However, history does matter. As I have mentioned before, bylearning history, we can have a sound understanding of the present. By usingthe methods and experience once our ancestors used, we can avoid a lot ofproblems and lead us to a stronger future.


Our view of history shapes the way we view thepresent, and therefore the times we live now are not significantly differentfrom people who lived in earlier times. As a result, we can have a soundunderstanding of the present and develop the world towards a good way just asan old saying goes, we study the past to understand the present; we understandthe present to guide the future.
