Sara was sitting on the sofa and thinking about her birthday party. Because of the terrible storm, her parents decided to have the party the next weekend. Sara didn't understand why. They didn't live near the ocean (海洋).
''Sara, you can't sit there all day,'' her mother said. ''We'll have your party for you next weekend.''
''It's not the same. My birthday is today, not next weekend.'' Sara turned on the TV. She wanted to watch anything that wasn't about the storm. But just about every station was talking about it. ''I can't even watch my favorite shows. This storm is ruining (毀滅) everything.''
Her mother sat down next to her. ''The storm is ruining a lot. Look at that. Those people are trying to save their houses. Could you imagine if we lost our home?'' Sara looked at what was happening on the TV. The storm did look bad. She knew she'd be really sad if her family lost their home.
''What's going to happen to all those people? Will they be okay?'' asked Sara.
''Usually when there's a big storm like this, people give money and send food and other things to the homeless families. Some people even help rebuild houses.''
''I want to help, too.'' said Sara. ''Maybe I could give my birthday money away. Those people are going to need it more than me.''
Her mother smiled. ''I'm really proud of you, Sara. Helping others is a great way to weather (經受住) the storm.''

Choose the best answer （根據以下內容，選擇最恰當的答案）
In America, history is still a required subject at lower levels and students still choose to study it at higher levels. However, there is an ongoing discussion about whether schools should continue to teach History or whether they should spend the money on other subject. This article will deal with the arguments against and in favour of teaching History in school, concluding that we should teach History.
Many of my classmate suggest that History is one of the less interesting school subjects and that governments should spend the time and money on subjects that are more useful. They argue that Maths and English are more important so we can have a society with a good basic education. Others say that we should spend the money on teaching Science, as this can move a country forward and benefit the economy.
Yet, there are a number of reasons why it is a good idea to teach History. Teaching history is important because students should be able to understand the background to present situations in the news. This will create better-informed citizens. Another reason is that it helps pupils to understand their culture and background, which also helps them to understand the society they live in. In addition to learning about the past, History can help students to think for themselves. Finally, it also improves pupils’ reading and writing skills, which can help them become better students.
In conclusion, although there are clear arguments on both sides, it seems to me that we should teach children about the past because the value of the subject goes beyond the classroom. I would say that the teaching of History helps to create generations of well-educated and knowledgeable individuals.
