【参考范文】

The history curriculum has always been one of the key subjects during school years. Some people suppose that acquiring knowledge from world history is a significant process for school children, while from my perspective, setting the course of local history should be attached more importance to.

Admittedly, there are good grounds to argue that it is the process of learning international history that drives school children to broaden their horizons. Considering that world history courses function as a platform for students to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the difference between cultures and civilizations, school children may gradually comprehend how to embrace the distinction in the background of globalization. Therefore, in the long run, the conflicts, caused by prejudice and misunderstanding, can be significantly mitigated provided that citizens have generally been cultivated with multi-perspectives from an early age.

However, the sense of identity that national history classes prepare the young generation with should not be ignored. For one thing, the knowledge from local history can be easily understood and digested by school children since what the course covers lead students to trace their own origins, which means they can learn to appreciate local characteristics combined with the specific environment they live in. For another, setting national history courses is also significant for cultural heritage. The contents, whether it be the documents of public events or the records of historical figures, guide students to recognize their roots, therefore helping them raise the awareness of maintaining the uniqueness of local culture. Under the circumstance of globalization, when cultural assimilation is likely to take place, this kind of consciousness instilled in young individuals makes them take initiative to inherit national features, contributing to the distinct advance of countries.

In conclusion, attaining local cultural literacy should be given top priority to for school children compared with learning world history in contemporary society.
