Explanation / Answer

History is a subject which is very subjective unlike other objective subjects like physics and mathematics. History is interpreted by different individuals differently. A leader which is showcased in a bad light, may not necessarily be that. However, if the text book says so and it has been believed for a long time, it is natural to not be able to understand the problematic nature of history. It is told by different people, and their own opinions are inevitably part of the story that is written and passed on through the generations as well as knowledge about history, and their ability to convey this wealth of knowledge to their students.

Thus, the correct answer is option, C.

Not all teachers are good teachers. Teaching is a skill which not everybody possesses. Thus, a good teacher can teach anything with basic knowledge of a subject.

Thus, the above statement is, True.
