※ 引述《dvlin (Dee)》之銘言：
: 1. Learning about the past has no value for those of us living in the
: present. Do you agree or disagree?
So far as I am concerned, I personally don't agree with the statement, in
contrast, I think through learning about the past can increase our wisdom
when dealing about the similar things. To make my point of view much more
clear, I will illustrate in the following reasons.
First of all, everything we have right now is the production of the past, not
only specific objects but also abstract thoughts. In short, the past is the
foundation that the present build upon. Without the existence of the past,
how can we enjoy the modern live nowadays? Without the sacrifices of people
in the past, we might still be trapped in the Dark Age, or be frightened by
the World War. Therefore, the past is the way that leads us to here we are,
how can we not to learn the detail about it and be thankful to the ancestors?
Second, there is a lot of wisdom hidden in the pages of history. There must
be some dilemma we encounter and don't know what to do, while once upon a
time, there might be another person who had the same experience, at this
point of view, we could learn the possible solutions from these stories
without to examine each one by ourselves, what's more, sometimes, it can
provide you the solution that you never thought about. That is the wisdom of
past.
Last but not least, since our life time is limited, no one can experience all
kinds of life in their lives. Therefore, by learning about the past, we can
get the idea of what life would be like in different history stages or
different country. By getting to know deeper in these aspect can make us more
concentrate in our own ones.
Therefore, I think that learning about the past has great value for us who
live in the present. At the mean time, we should also be gratitude for the
sacrifice and the progress the forerunner had made. Thanks to the past, we
could have the modern life in the present.
初次po文，敬請多多指教。
