They grow in fresh water or salty water. Seaweed is algae that grow in salty water. Seaweed is red or brown in color. The Japanese people use these plants from the sea in many ways. From it, they make a food called Kombu. Kombu is seaweed that has been dried, cooked and pressed together. Then it is dried again and cut into long pieces. The Japanese eat a lot of Kombu and like it very much. Japanese farmers often use seaweed as fertilizer. It makes their plants grow better.

But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day,we should be able to give an answer to the question. It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country,but often it was destroyed by fire or in a warSometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to writeFor example,we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after themBut we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write. Sometimes, of course,even if the people cannot write,they may know something of the pastThey have heard about it from older people,and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings,and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations. For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call “remembered history”Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is,because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records,such spoken stories are often very helpful28. Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage? A “Remembered history”,compared with written history,is less reliable B Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history C A written account of our daily activities
