Write what? How to write? It depends on the choice of topic. Generally speaking, choosing a good topic, just like a shooter aiming at a target, is the first level. Because the topic is the total reflection of the soul and central idea of the whole article. The standard of paper title is to see whether it can arouse the reader's interest, or whether it can understand the central idea of the article.

The scope of the topic should not be too large, and there should be a breakthrough. We should find problems from reading history books and choose the research focus. Look for questions from other people's papers.

We should look for problems from social needs or real life. It is a very important issue that historical science should serve the practical needs, and it is also a question of the relationship between research results and practical needs.

Make full use of index materials to find scarce disciplines. Such as China Ancient History Papers Index and National Newspaper. Paper magazine indexes and historical yearbooks. From this, we can understand the previous research results, current research trends and information, and get inspiration from it, which is of great benefit to the topic selection.
