The video "what is history for? " argues that history matters because it provides solutions to the problems of the present. recall the statement "those who don't know history won't be able to improve the present." consider a recent event, either in your personal life or in the news. in a few sentences, describe a way that a past historical event could inform your understanding of the recent event. briefly describe a strategy for how you could be conscious of presentism the use of modern values to interpret past events in the study of those past events.

when studying cause and effect, historians usually group the causes into different categories. for example, cultural causes reflect how a society’s literature and art convey the way the society saw itself in relation to the rest of the world. another resource that historians use to understand society is pop culture, which tells them the trends and ideas that are preferred by the common people. when studying cause and effect, it’s important to remember multiple causation, or the idea that an effect could have several causes and vice versa.  

the correct option is “cultural causes” since art and literature are related to the culture of a place. culture is determined by literature, art, music.

the correct option is “pop culture” since it reflects the likes and ideas of common people whereas the rest of the options do not focus on common people.  

the correct option is “multiple causation” since it refers to the idea that events are caused by multiple reasons, not just a single one.
