三、阅读理解
Good morning. Today I'm going to talk to you about my understanding of learning history.
You may often wonder why we students should study something that has nothing to do with our own lives. If you think that way, I have to say you are far from the truth.
In fact, if we study history, we can learn quite a lot about personal stories and events of people just like us. The people who came before us helped build and develop the country we are living in now. Their ideas often solved many of our problems and troubles.
To be honest, ▲ . Some of what we study in history helps us understand the mistakes of the past. And these mistakes will help people not to do the same wrong things. People often learn from the past to have a better future.
Whether we like the subject of history or not, we must understand the importance of the events and the people who came before us. Our ancestors' decisions have influenced our life. Similarly, the decisions of our generation(一代人) will finally influence those who come after us. In this only way, the world is truly connected.
1.What kind of writing is the passage
A.A diary. B.A story. C.A speech. D.A letter.
2.Which of the following can be put in the ▲ in Paragraph 4
A.the mistakes of the past won't help us B.I don't like the idea of learning history
C.it is not easy to learn the subject of history D.not everything that happened in the past is good
3.According to Paragraph 5, the decisions of our generation will _____.
A.show what is happening to us B.build and develop our country
C.influence the people in the future D.help understand the people in the past
4.The writer wrote the passage to _____.
A.introduce some important people in history
B.develop students' interest in learning history
C.explain different people's understanding of history
D.show the relationship between the past and the future
