Michel is used to getting good grades by taking careful notes and memorizing the information for the tests. However, he is findi

ng that his college classes are different. He has to write several response papers about the reading for his history class and has been receiving poor marks for just paraphrasing the text and not sharing his thoughts on the subject. Michel knows that a few other students have formed a study group to discuss the reading and review each other’s response papers, but decides not to join because he doesn’t know how he would contribute. In talking with his mother one night, he explains his frustration. "I always thought the point of history was that it was based on facts. My professor is always asking why I think something happened. It happened. Why is there no one answer?" 1.What is one question Michel should ask himself when presented with information in his history class?1,What is one question Michel should ask himself when presented with information in his history class?

Answer:

How to make history more than just anecdotal of facts that allow us to interpret our past?

Explanation:

The term history designates historical events and events, while historiography refers to the writings of historians. From these theoretical considerations it follows that the events of the past cannot be modified, they are incontrovertible, there are data that cannot be submitted to the light of the opinion. For example, it is undeniable what was the result of the referendum of the autonomous initiative of 28 - F; We can discuss when we perform an interpretation of it, and that is when we will be generating historiography. In these two planes the historian moves, that of making the data known, the objective (the search for truth), and that of its interpretation, at which time we are determined by belonging to some historiographic current. A third level would consist of the ethical evaluation of the event, which no longer corresponds to the work of the historian, but that does not mean that he cannot carry it out, it is more, in my opinion, this task is sometimes essential.

This theoretical reflection must be taken into account when dealing with some current events, because we should not get used, as Hobsbawm said, to "the systematic distortion of history for irrational purposes." One of the cases that prove it has been the sentence handed down last week by an Austrian court against the alleged historian David Irving, sentenced to three years in jail because in 1989, during conferences, he had denied the existence of the holocaust. The prosecutor described him as a "falsifier of history" and the court did not take into account Irving's statements that he had modified those "opinions" of years ago. The condemnation has given rise to a debate about freedom of expression and opinion, although I understand that the fact that the problem lies in the fact that there are certain events that cannot be placed within the scope of the opposites has not been sufficiently highlighted. We can comment on why the holocaust occurred, but never about its existence.

Although there are those who dedicate themselves to the falsification of history and those who feel upset with the task of rebuilding our most recent past, historians, or at least some of them, will continue to try to make our discipline more than just anecdotal of facts and that the present allows us to interpret our past.

aleksklad [387]
I believe the answer is: Yangtze river
The three gorges dam is the world's largest power station that built around the Yangtze River. The initial construction of this power station caused the Yangtze river unable to contain the amount of water that it used to be, which led to flooding in areas near that river.

In the United States, what regions are most at risk for tornados and hurricanes, and why?
sveticcg [70]
The region that's most likely at risk for a tornado is Tornado Alley. Tornado Alley consists of these U.S. states: Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, South Dakota, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, Colorado, North Dakota, and Minnesota. These states unfortunately are at the most risk of tornadoes. This is because the region allows cold air (from Canada) meet with moist and warm air (from the Gulf of Mexico), so it's soon in between two the air-masses that most tornadoes eventually form.

The region most at risk for hurricanes are states along the South; the most common places at risk are Texas, Florida, and Louisiana. You're more likely to get hit by a hurricane in these states. This is because of the mere influence from low pressure systems that cause high wind speeds on tropical systems.
