Example 4
It is argued that learning about the history does not have any benefits to people who 
live in the present. I do not entirely agree with this idea because it can teach people 
not to make similar historical mistakes, and it also allows them to learn from the past 
achievement
s
to create something even greater. 
Firstly, from the historical study viewpoint, people usually learn not to repeat the 
same grave mistakes their ancestors made in the past. Several decades ago, the 
world leaders were forced to use their military power to battle against other nations 
during World War II, killing millions of civilians in the process. However, nowadays 
the leaders of many countries in the modern world are unlikely to cause more wars
,
particularly at the global scale
,
because they understand better about how many lives 
are at stake. For instance, as the world most powerful leader, 
Barack
Obama’s 
charismatic personality has helped the USA avoid several serious wars, to which he 
officially commented that he could avoid them successfully because he learned the 
importance of citizens from his predecessors. 
Secondly, historical mistakes are clearly not the only lessons that people could learn 
from, but past achievement
s
is also what people living in the modern world can learn 
to make them even better for society. In this technological driven era, more advanced 
innovations are successfully created because many inventors study intensively 
regarding 
the past inventions. For instance, Elon Musk has built 
a
rocket that could 
travel both horizontally and vertically, which create
s
a huge benefit for the logistic
s
industry. In an interview with Forbes, he mentioned that he was able to create this 
innovation because he studied tirelessly the early flying inventions of the 
Wright
Brothers for many years when he was younger.
