Now our party is about to carry out the educational activities of studying the history of the Party, and I would like to take this opportunity to talk about the significance of studying history.

I understand that learning history is not just about mastering historical facts, remembering historical context, and making others think they are "knowledgeable" after dinner. It is mainly about learning the truth of being a man and doing things from what has happened in the past, exploring the law of things' development, drawing lessons from predecessors' experience, guiding the current work and life practice, and helping us to avoid detours. Just like we tell a fable to a child, the story is just a carrier that interests him, and the ultimate goal is to let the child remember the moral.

There is a saying that "history is always strikingly similar". Although our social productivity has improved today and people's thinking has been constantly improving, the methods and strategies for dealing with interpersonal relationships and doing things have not changed fundamentally since ancient times.

Learning history is a shortcut to get the truth of being a man and doing things. The experience and lessons of our predecessors tell us what to do. Our experience and lessons today will be passed on to future generations, from generation to generation, and we will continue to advance on the shoulders of our predecessors.
