Historians tend to tell the same joke when they are describing history education in America. It’s the one【C1】______the teacher standing in the schoolroom door【C2】______goodbye to students for the summer and calling after them. "By the way, we won World War II. "
The problem with the joke, of course, is that it’s not funny. The recent surveys on【C3】______illiteracy are beginning to numb; nearly one third of American 17-year-olds cannot even【C4】______which countries the United States fought against in that war. One third have no idea when the Declaration of Independence was【C5】______. One third thought Columbus reached the New World after 1750. Two thirds cannot correctly【C6】______the Civil War between 1850 and 1900. Even when they get the answers right, some are just guessing.
Unlike math or science, ignorance of history cannot be【C7】______connected to loss of international competitiveness. But it does affect our future【C8】______a democratic nation and as individuals.
The good news is that there is growing agreement on what is wrong with the【C9】______of history and what needs to be done to fix it. The steps are tentative (尝试性的) 【C10】______yet to be felt in most classrooms. [br] 【C4】
