A. History helps me become more mature(成熟的). I used to believe that life is simple to understand. Now I know that we shouldn't make simple judgements. People aren't " good" or "bad" ; things aren't " true" or " false".
B. Francis Bacon wrote, " Histories make men wise. " I agree with that. If you know history you will respect the past and be confident about the future. History tells you where you come from, where you are and where you are going. That is the power of history. Don't you think so？
C. What are teenagers nowadays crazy about? Popular songs? Harry Potter books? Sports or online games? For me, the answer is history.
D. History has also made me mentally(精神上) stronger. I'm more responsible now. I have learned useful things about myself from studying the rise and fall of the kings and queens. When I studied Chinese history between 1840 and 1949, I knew I must be a strong person and do my best for China.
E. History occupies much of my free time. Since I was 10, I've been reading history books, collecting old maps and visiting museums. I always get excited when people around me talk about history. I have learned a lot from history. It has helped me deal with the problems of growing up.
