THE SUBJECT I ENJOY LEARNING

I learn many subjects at school But the one I enjoy learning is History History tells

us how people lived a long time ago It also tells us how men had to struggle to make the world a better place to live in

Many pupils, however, do not like to read History They say that there are too many names and dates to remember But they do not understand that if we do not know about the past, we cannot understand the present property For example, if we wish to know how men did in the past to travel at night or to keep themselves warm In fact, only a student of History will make us realize that everything that we do today is the result of what our grandfathers and others before them did in the past, so history is the long story of men’s struggle through the ages As we read this story, we learn many interesting things

I love History so much that I have a lot of history books in my house Someday, I might even write a history book myself

1 History is the writer’s favorite subject

2 Learning History, we can know how people lived a long time ago

3 Many students like to study History
