Answer 1

【答案】 As the chart vividly shows, as for a thing which is of great value to us, many people realize its value before they get it and after they lose it, but they don't cherish it when they really possess it.

It's actually true in life, and let's take time as an example, we always think there is a lot of review time before the exam, so we don't make good use of it, which leads us to waste the precious time bit by bit. Let’s take family love as another example, we always take everything our parents do for us for granted, so we don't express gratitude to them and even repeatedly contradict them, making them sad. As for friendship, we are always used to the company of friends, so we often quarrel with them because of small things, and it is not until they leave us that we realize the value of friendship.

In a word, we should cherish what we have now, don't wait to realize its value until we lose it, because if that happens, we can only regret.
