Topic In order to solve problmes in the present and future, it is necessary to understand the past | |
|
It is often said that it is the best way to solve the problems in the present and future through understanding the past because the present is rooted in the past. However, I believe that it is not useful to learn the past in order to solve problems in the present and future because it cannot be practical and there is a new invention.
To begin with, learning the past is not helpful. This is because there is many difference between the past and the present because our society is becoming more advanced and fast-changing. Thus, in modern society, knowledge may be outdated right after gaining, and people cannot apply knowledge learning from the past to the present. For example, when I was in fifth grade, I was major in mathematics while one of my friends, Su Jin, was major in history. She thought that knowledge picked up from history was useful when getting a job. However, in reality, it was easy for me to enter a profession because mathematics was more practical.
On top of that, unlike the past, a new invention emerges.
This is because with the advent of new technology, many new machines were created.
Thus, people cannot learn anything from the past because this new invention is not presence in the past. For example, when the personal computer was first developed, it was the sensation of modern technology. This machine could allow people to communicate countless ways and work on complex problems more effectively without much effort. However, getting used to this machine was rather difficult. People gave more effort to learn this machine through the past but it was absolutely useless because the machine did not exist. This implies that learning the past is a waste of time because it is not helpful.
To conclude, obtaining knowledge concerning the past is not necessary because the past is a lot of different from the present and knowledge learning from the past cannot apply the present.
For these two reasons considered, I firmly agree with the opinion that understanding the past does not guarantee solving problems in the present and future. | |
