We can learn a lot. Popa(my granda) told me that his great aunt, Mary Whitmore, was the first female Mayor of Ipswich, which was exciting to know.” What should I ask questions about? Do the relatives and older people you speak to remember when the astronaut Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the Moon in 1969? Any interviewing tips? When talking to people about the history they have lived through, try to ask interesting questions, and listen carefully to their answers. Write notes and questions down before you chat so that you will remember what to say. Oral History Do you talk to older people about what life was like when they were young? Perhaps you enjoy finding out what major events, such as the Second World War, were actually like for the people who lived through them? Oral history means listening to these stories and asking questions of the people who remember them. It is a good idea to make recordings of oral history conversations so that they can be kept and listened to in the future. This can be done with a sound recording device or an app on a smartphone. As well as historical events that affect a whole country, local events are also important. Examples could include flooding, the construction of new buildings, or a person making a big change or having strong influence on a particular area. Neal Foster, who creates the popular Horrible Histories Live stage shows, thinks oral history is vital. “Nothing competes with hearing history from people who went through the experience. What makes history fascinating is hearing the same event recalled by different people. That knowledge is priceless,” he says. Learn more... Visit the Oral History Society at ohs.org.uk where you’ll find lots of helpful information, news and magazine. Listen to podcast called Stories of War on BBC Sounds, in which stories from the Second World War have been passed down through families. 39.

He has been blind since birth. He says he does not feel like he is missing anything, because he cannot imagine what sight is like. He can smell a rose, but he cannot tell if it is red, or blue. It does not matter to him. He enjoys the beauty of the scent（pleasant smell）itself.People sometimes take pity on him, but he never complains. He does not feel cheated by Mother Nature. But his life is not always a bed of roses. It is difficult for him to travel. He cannot drive, of course. He travels by bus. At home, he cannot just look out of the window to see what the weather is like, and then dress appropriately. He can’t look at the clock on the wall to see what time it is. He uses his Braille watch or a special radio for that. Philip can look for and look at, but he cannot see. He says strangers often correct themselves when talking to him. They’ll say, “I see,” meaning “I understand.” But then they think they’ve been rude, so they’ll correct themselves and say, “I mean, I understand.” Philip has never seen a good movie or a bad TV show. He doesn’t know what a sunset or a full moon looks like. He is a musician. He plays the saxophone, but not in a band. Four times a week, he travels to Old Town in Pasadena on the bus in the afternoon. He gets off at the bus stop and then finds his way across the street to The Cap, a hat store. On the side walk in front of The Cap is his “spot”. There, he puts a hat, upside down with change in it. He sits down and starts playing his saxophone. He usually spends about four hours there and earns from $10 to $30.58. How long has Philip been blind? _________________________________________________________59.
