All things in the

11、 world develop in accordance with their own laws. Spring comes after winter, which will never change because people dislike cold and desolation. If people were preoccupied with the relentless pursuit of speed, wishing their endeavor could soften the undesirable effects of natural laws, they would ev

The scared man deeply re

14、grets feeding the dog when it was tiny and seemingly cute.This picture, in a humorous way, indicates that if bad habits are not nipped in the bud, they will become ingrained in a person and then capable of subconsciously manipulating his behaviors towards destructive ends. This message is an insight

15、ful reminder for everyone. Certainly, every person has bad habits. Some people may be in the habit of speaking rudely, some tend to be deaf to others opinions and some are inclined to delay. If these bad habits are allowed to be developed, they will get out of control and become big obstacles to lif

16、e or the career. For example, a delay-prone person will hardly restrain himself from missing the deadline. Understandably, he will have few chances to be entrusted with important tasks and then will barely be professionally experienced enough to gain promotion.Bad habits will probably make it imposs

20、huge mountains blocking the road to a more fulfilling career and life. Some people are discouraged by the pain in climbing “mountains“ and choose a more comfortable alternative staying still. Such people can only linger around in visited places without possibility of enjoying new scenes. On the cont

21、rary, some other people are willing to devote tremendous efforts to challenging “mountains“ and then can finally arrive at further destinations.Removing unnecessary restraints is beneficial for our personal growth and thus we should be determined to constantly do it on our life journeys.
