History is an elder who keep telling many vivid stories about humanity to hone the sense of pride, dignity and self-worth while promoting the thoughts about values, humanity and morality. In my view, the genuine purpose of study on history is rooted not in reconstructing the past completely and accurately by the mere sifting of evidence for facts but rather delivering the eternal values and humanity which can illustrate the present as a light and bend the arc of future toward the hope of a better day.
真正的历史并不是完整而又精确的重建过去，而是传递一种永恒的人性和价值，作为一盏明灯照亮我们的现在，引导我们关注未来的无限可能。
这句话就很简单地指出了历史的本质是什么，真正的意义又是什么。我们就可以直接拿它作为全文的点睛之笔了。
现在是不是有点直观感受了，好了，为了加强大家的这种感觉，小西再给G亲们举个例子，比如GRE题库里有很多题都是跟教育有关系的题目，那这时候，你就可以不管题目，点出教育的本质来：
Granted that it’s important to lay a firm foundation for the achievement of personal fulfillment through education, education amounts to far more than providing knowledge; it also embraces delivering beliefs, values and humanity. In my view, the genuine purpose of education is rooted not in stuffing “education” but rather eliciting the potential of students aimed at helping them to realize the riches within themselves.
有了这句话甚至是这段话，我们的作文的深度就直接出来了，而且像这样的点睛之笔，我们事先就可以润色好然后熟练的背下，所以在考场上碰到相关的主题的时候我们就可以快速的写出一段有深度有文采的精彩的段落！这对我们获得GRE作文的高分无疑有巨大的帮助。
