A knowledge of history is necessary to interpret current problems because

  • A.they have roots in the past
  • B.they can be contrasted with the past events
  • C.they may be repetitions of past events
  • D.only then they can be put in a proper context

Answer: C

Correct answer: they may be repetitions of past events

The passage closes by saying the student will see that the same pattern recurs consistently, again and again, throughout the centuries. Recurrence is what makes the past useful for reading the present; roots and context are true enough in general but are not what this passage argues.
