Practice the conversation; study the vocabulary; then discuss the questions with a friend in English.

Questions:
1. Why do you think Herodotus included some mythical figures in his history book?
2. Do you think it's important for history writers to use balance in their writing?
3. Do you think a history writer should visit the places he writes about? Or is it okay to learn about them from books?
