prescribed title:
In this world, all living things have a certain degree of knowledge but as human
beings, we stand out and we store more knowledge in our “brain” than other
what we learnt while past knowledge is the knowledge that we’ve known or learnt
for some time. At this point, we can see that the relationship between present and
past knowledge is strongly attached to each other. But does it mean that we can
predict the future using past knowledge? In my opinion this sentence to some extent
is correct. In this essay, I will offer multiple perspectives of the topic, showing the
extent that they depend on each other. I will explore the topic using History and
using the knowledge question “To what extent does present knowledge depend on
is used in everyday life in all kinds of situations and math is one of the main courses
learnt in all schools around the world. And this is learnt since nursery to be able to
mathematics, physics and chemistry in high school, and she went to college to study
economics. Is there any particular relationship? To be sure, the two disciplines are
different, but if you look closely, they are inextricably linked. And if you say that you
do not have good mathematical knowledge, it should be very difficult for an
knowledge, you will have a hard time learning macro and microeconomic estimates.
learning.To manage to interact and benefit from all our surroundings we need
knowledge learnt in mathematics. So, the current knowledge depends entirely on the
not necessarily needed for the understanding and comprehension of the knowledge.
Such as Historical knowledge, history is a past that has faded away, and there is no
way to reproduce it. The next question is, what methods can I use to get what has
existed before? Between real history and historical reality which one seems more
correct? Have you ever asked yourselves these questions? The history we are
learning is the real history? I asked myself many times but found no exact answers
for them. No one in the current world has seen a dinosaur but if you tell them to draw
one they would give you an exact image of what they’ve believed it would look like
as the historical books show. I asked a similar question to a grade 7 class to draw a
dinosaur. I asked them if they have seen a real dinosaur and the answer is no. So
what made them draw something they’ve never seen before, is imagination. The
theory used here is coherence theory which states that a statement is true if it is
consistent with other things that are considered true. No one can prove what
happened in the past if they did not see or actually lived at that time, which means
everything written in the books could just be a story that someone coined out of their
biases. So to this extent, present knowledge does not depend much on the past
often it can only show something to be true within one fixed system but not others
such as History.
words. And words are combined into sentences, the combination answering that of
ideas into thoughts. And language develops as time passes on. All the letters and
sounds used for expression have changed their forms of writing or the vocabulary
and ways of expressing them are completely different. In China currently we are
using chinese characters but before it had developed till now they used oracle
instead and it has a lot of similarity. I am Chinese and I speak mandarin. Mandarin is
known as one of the hardest languages to learn in the world as people have to
handle both the writing and reading to understand the meaning of a sentence while
other languages don’t and also because there are hundreds of different cultures in
china which make them different while expressing the same sentence. But the
calligraphy is not as hard. Most basic words came first from the physical look of the
object it wants to express then developed into actual words. And this shows the
linkage of the past knowledge to finally form what we have in the present. Critics
would however wonder and ask: if all present knowledge depends on the past
knowledge then where did the first human in the world get their knowledge from?
That’s what Immanuel Kant thought to. The theory used here is language acquisition
which states that children are able to learn language out of desire to communicate
with their surrounding environment and world He wrote that all information starts
emotions into a haphazard concoction to create ideas and scenarios that can leap
beyond the bounds of reality often associated with creativity. They take a mass of
data and imagine possible explanations to why they got the data that they received.
The knowledge used in imagination doesn’t have to be knowledge from the past.
Instead people like or get amazed by the new images or thoughts that people create
than what have already existed. It is therefore clear that it is only to some extent that
knowledge” is not fully reliable. It is only to some extent that present knowledge
depends fully on past knowledge. And it is important to know that even though it
does not depend fully on the past knowledge but to some extent helps in the
