Is it important for a people to know their history and traditions? Why?
A people without the knowledge of their past story, origin and culture is like a tree without roots.
-Marcus Gavey
一个不了解自己历史,起源和文化的民族就如同一棵无根之树。
A people here refers to all the persons who live in a particular place or belong to a particular country, race or other group.
A people without the knowledge of their past story, origin and culture is like a tree without roots.
-Marcus Gavey
A tree is a good metaphor(暗喻) for a group of people. A tree without roots would easily fall down and die. The roots also feed the tree. The root of a tree can not usually be seen, but they often spread deep and wide. In this way, a people’s history also has deep roots that spread far and wide. If people do not know about their history, they will not learn from the past and will not be able to develop and progress well into the future.
A people without the knowledge of their past story, origin and culture is like a tree without roots.
