Question 1.

A national holiday is a day when everyone in the country gets together to celebrate
something important. People don't have to go to work or school on this day, so they can
spend time with family and friends. But most people think that a national holiday means "no
school" (walang pasok). People think of it as a day to rest and relax instead of a day to
celebrate something important.
Question 2.
Gottschalk's book talks about how history is often just a small part of what really happened.
This is because a lot of the past's information and events are lost or forgotten. This can
make it hard for us to understand the whole story when we read or learn about history
today.
Question 3.
The phrase "a monument, a relic, or a document would remain just data and will never be a
historical source without a human element" means that these things can't be used as proof
of history unless there is someone to interpret them. This is because they might not get the
whole point of the story.
Question 4
It's important to know if the information is true, so it's best to start by figuring out if it's real.
Only then can credible details be taken from it. This is because wrong conclusions can be
made if the information isn't correct.

Explanation:

Question 1
● A national holiday is a day set aside by the country to commemorate an occasion
that is regarded as significant. People do not have to go to work or school on this
day, so they are free to spend time with their loved ones and friends. Nevertheless,
the prevalent conception of a national holiday is that "school is out for the day"
(walang pasok). This is due to the fact that most people view it not as a day to
commemorate an important event but rather as a day to unwind and take things
easy.
● The day designated as the national holiday is set aside to reflect on and pay respect
to the nation's past, culture, and accomplishments. People from all around the
country join together on this special day to honor and celebrate what it means to be
a citizen of the United States. Nevertheless, the prevalent conception of a national
holiday is that "school is out for the day" (walang pasok). This is due to the fact that
most people view it not as a day to commemorate an important event but rather as a
day to unwind and take things easy.

Question 2.
● The book written by Gottschalk explores the idea that history is frequently merely a
very small fraction of the past. This is due to the fact that a great deal of historical
data and occurrences have been lost or forgotten. Because of this, it is possible that
we will not be able to understand the complete tale, which can have an impact on
how we read and appreciate history today. It is challenging to get a whole picture of
what happened when all we can see is a fragment of the past. It's possible that we're
just privy to a portion of the tale, which can make accurate interpretation difficult. In
addition, if facts and occurrences from the past are misplaced or forgotten, it is
challenging to comprehend the full story. Because of this, it is possible that we will
not be able to understand the complete tale, which can have an impact on how we
read and appreciate history today.

Question 3.
● The fact that "a monument, a relic, or a document would stay merely data and would
never be historical source without human element" suggests that these items cannot
be utilized as historical evidence unless there is someone who can interpret them as
implied by the phrase. This is due to the fact that it is possible for them to be unable
to comprehend the complete narrative. In order to be considered reliable pieces of
historical evidence, a monument, a relic, or a document must first be interpreted by a
knowledgeable person. This is due to the fact that these aspects by themselves
cannot tell the whole narrative. In order for them to be considered valid pieces of
historical evidence, they need to be understood.

Question 4.
● It is necessary to determine whether or not the information that is being provided is
accurate before moving on to the next step of extracting believable particulars. This
is because it is crucial to know whether or not the information is accurate. This is due
to the fact that erroneous inferences may be drawn if the information provided is not
reliable. Before it is possible to extract believable particulars, it is essential to
determine whether or not the material in question is authentic. This is because it is
essential to know whether or not the information is correct. This is due to the fact that
erroneous inferences may be drawn if the information provided is not reliable. The
danger of drawing wrong conclusions is that it may lead to poor decision making,
which can have negative consequences. As a result, before basing any decisions on
the information at hand, it is essential to verify that it is correct and reliable.
