34、 on the subway,not paying attention to the depth of the seawall (海堤),because it doesnt affect us today.So even if we know that things are changing and changing faster,what we see and feel is very different.And our experiences,and the feelings that we get from them,are very influential in determining
35、 our behavior.So if we dont feel things are changing that much,we wont actively and aggressively(有冲劲地)look for new ways to adapt to that change.Its really that simple.And increasingly,its really that dangerous.The way we absorb information,and the way we act on it,are not going to change because the

45、 dies,and we wish we had spent more time with that person.This lesson can result in us spending more time with our remaining loved ones. 20 Since the lesson is learned through the consequences of our actions or reactions,in this way we can gain insight into how we think,act and react in certain situ
46、ations.Perhaps one of the biggest lessons we can finally learn is that while we cant control everything,we can control our response to things.ALife lessons are unique to each person.BSome of these lessons are learned the hard way.CThis separates a life lesson from everything else we learn.DSpending
47、more time with loved ones is one of the examples.ELife lessons can serve to help us understand ourselves better.FOne way to improve your life is to learn something new every day.GTo put it simply,a life lesson teaches us not to make the same mistake twice.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了什么是人生教训及其意义。16B此空设于段中,
