Routines provide security because people do not have to wonder what will happen. In this rapidly changing

5、world, it is sometimes reassuring to have a schedule to follow. Habits also make life more convenient because people do not have to think about what they must do next and do not need to worry about forgetting something. They can go through their daily routines automatically. However, this way of lif

If he lacks the necessary determination and perseverance, it will be difficult for him to succeed by any means other than luck. In my opinion, both

9、 of these lifestyles are too extreme. Most people are not so dependent on their habits, nor are they addicted to change. For me, a lifestyle somewhere between these two is ideal. I find some habits and routines comforting and convenient, yet I do not want to be afraid to face changes or take advanta

10、ge of unforeseen chances to improve my life. Therefore, I will continue to follow my routine in daily life, but keep my eyes open for opportunities. 2 【正确答案】 People live in the present. They plan for and worry about the future. History, however, is the study of the past. It is undeniable that learni

Only through history can we begin to comprehend changes; and only through history can we understand what elements of an institution or a society persist despite change. In conclusion, I totally disagree with the argument that learning about the past has no value for those of us living in the present.
