× When I was a high school student, I studied Japanese history and world history in the class.
✓ When I was a high school student, I studied Japanese history and world history in class.
The original sentence used 'in the class' which is awkward; 'in class' is the natural idiom. No tense change needed; keep past tense 'studied' because the action occurred in the past. Suggestion: use 'in class' for general reference to being taught during lessons.
× It was very interesting because I can know about, I could know about the past.
✓ It was very interesting because I could learn about the past.
Mixing 'can' and 'could' with past context is inconsistent. The main clause is past ('It was'), so the ability to learn should be in past form 'could'. Also 'know about' is unnatural here; use 'learn about' to describe studying history. Suggestion: keep tense consistent and choose the appropriate verb collocation ('learn about the past').
× Well, I long history by textbook and historic dramas.
✓ Well, I learned about history from textbooks and historical dramas.
'I long history' is ungrammatical: likely intended 'I learn' or 'I learned'. The original uses wrong verb and missing preposition. Use past tense 'learned' to match context and 'from' to indicate source. Also plural 'textbooks' and adjective 'historical' are correct collocations.
× It was very interesting and we can I can learn it easily.
✓ It was very interesting and I could learn it easily.
The phrase 'we can I can' is a pronoun/subject confusion and mixes present with past. Use one subject (I) and past ability 'could' to match 'It was'. Also avoid the redundant pronoun 'we' if the speaker refers personally. Suggestion: decide whether speaking for yourself ('I') or group ('we') and keep pronoun and tense consistent.
× Well I think the benefit is what the past people think were thinking about.
✓ Well, I think the benefit is understanding what people in the past were thinking about.
'The past people' is incorrect article and word order; use 'people in the past' or 'people of the past'. Also 'think were thinking' is redundant and ungrammatical; use 'were thinking' with 'understanding' as the noun phrase. Suggestion: use 'people in the past' and 'understanding' to form a clear noun phrase.
× For example, if we learn about history we can know the past peoples knowledge and it is very useful for us to live this society.
✓ For example, if we learn about history we can learn about people's knowledge in the past, and it is very useful for living in this society.
'Past peoples knowledge' lacks possessive punctuation and pluralization. Use 'people's knowledge in the past' or 'knowledge of people in the past.' Also 'to live this society' is ungrammatical; use 'for living in this society.' Maintain consistent verb 'learn' rather than 'know' when discussing studying.
× Yes, I think so, because through the history we can learn about different cultures.
✓ Yes, I think so, because through history we can learn about different cultures.
Use 'through history' not 'through the history' when speaking generally. The definite article 'the' is unnecessary and incorrect here. Suggestion: remove 'the' for general concepts.
× For example, if we learn history, we can know the different culture and cultural roots.
✓ For example, if we learn history, we can learn about different cultures and their cultural roots.
'The different culture' should be plural 'different cultures' and 'know' is less appropriate than 'learn about' for studying. Also include 'their' to link cultures to their roots. Suggestion: pluralize nouns and use correct verb collocation 'learn about'.
× It is very important for us to leave this society.
✓ It is very important for us to live in this society.
'Leave this society' means to exit it, which reverses intended meaning. The correct verb is 'live in' meaning to reside or participate in society. Suggestion: use 'live in' when talking about existing within a society.
