As the relationship between past and future, it is too arbitrary to assert that the past is predictor of future, not only because people can’t know past necessarily correct, but also the world is changing, we can't use limited impression of past to predict complex future.

Firstly, as people say, past only lies in the history, and history is not the necessarily correct. It means that the past what we have known is more likely not reality. For one thing, we get the information of the past by some historical materials, such as relics, books, and so on. But all this things maybe lie to us. For example, as is known to all, Wu Zetian, China's first female monarch, wangled her position in all the historical books. But what is the truth? We all don't know. Maybe the author of the original book about her whole life experiences wrote her as such a bad woman willfully only because of dissatisfaction to her. And later generation just copy the original and spread it. As a result, in all people’s opinion, Wu Zetian is just a heartless people. But maybe the truth is just the reverse side. I think this situation occurs in many histories. For another, the historical materials what can be referenced by us is limited. People living in the modern time just explore these things and guess what had happened in the past, which is called as history. Can we really make the guess fit for reality? Not really, and it is quite unbelievable that people make the entire guess exactly. So, we can't trust history completely, and past can't be rebuilt. It is impossible for people living in the future to know what had happened in the past, and we can't use the wrong impression of the past in our mind to predict future, to tell us what will happen in the future.

Secondly, even though the information about past is just the fact, we should not jump the conclusion that past is predictor of the future, because the situations are always changing. There are so many unpredictable items in the world. No one knows what will happen in the next second. Dinosaur, living in the 200 million years ago, had dominated the earth more than 106 million years. If we didn’t live in the modern time, we can’t image that such a huge and ferocious monster would have extinguished, and maybe themselves either. What's more, the earthquake occurred in 5.12 in Sichuan province last year is another good example. Since 14:28 that day, many of us lost our family forever, which they never thought of. We can't predict this kind of things by sciences or veritas, not to mention the limited past experiences.

Thirdly, past, as the experiences, maybe is some kind of "knowledge" for us. People can use the impression about past to expect future, which is just people's subjects wishes, not predication. Such as the domain of science, we often hear, "From this technology, we can predict that the cancer can be cure in the near future....." Maybe this assertion is a little ridiculous, but many people just make such mistakes. All our human beings want to cure cancer, but we can't predict it by know technologies, by past. That is only our wishes. Maybe cancer hasn't been cured until our human being is extinguished or we die out just because of the cancer. Anything is possible.

All in all, past can't be known by people totally, and it is no predictor of the future.
自我评价，开头结尾比较烂，现在实在是想不出来令自己比较满意的开头结尾，还要多参考借鉴别人的，另外觉得第二段和第三段展开得不是很好，深度不够，但一时想不出来应该怎样修改了，欢迎大家猛拍O(∩_∩)O~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

TOPIC: ISSUE125 - "The past is no predictor of the future."
As(as后面是接句子吧，as for接短语?) the relationship between the past and the future, it is too arbitrary to assert that the past is predictor of the future, not only because people can’t know the past necessarily correct, but also the world is changing, we can't use limited impression of the past to predict complex future.

Firstly, as people say, the past only lies in (or lies on?) the history and the history is not the necessarily correct. (为什么是necessarily correct?) It means that the past what we have known is more likely not reality. For one thing, we get the information of (/from) the past by some historical materials, such as relics, books, and so on. But all this things maybe lie to us. For example, as is known to all, Wu Zetian, China's (Chinese) first female monarch, wangled her position in all the historical books. But what is the truth? We all don't know. Maybe the author of the original book about her whole life experiences (experience经历是不可数吧) wrote her as such a bad woman willfully only because of dissatisfaction to her. And later generation just copy the original and spread it. As a result, in all people’s opinion, Wu Zetian is just a heartless people. But maybe the truth is just the reverse side. I think this situation occurs in many histories (historical events). For another, the historical materials what can be referenced by us is limited. People living in the modern time (society) just explore these things and guess what had (去掉had) happened in the past, which is called as history. Can we really make the guess fit for reality? Not really, and it is quite unbelievable that people make the entire guess exactly. So, we can't trust history completely, and past can't be rebuilt. It is impossible for people living in the future to know what had (去掉had) happened in the past, and we can't use the wrong impression of the past in our mind(s) to predict the future, to tell us what will happen in the future.

Secondly, even though the information about past is just the fact, we should not jump the conclusion that past is predictor of the future, because the situations are always changing. There are so many unpredictable items in the world. No one knows what will happen in the next second. Dinosaur(s), living in the 200 million years ago, had
(去掉had) dominated the earth more than 106 million years. If we didn’t live (are not living) in the modern time, we can’t image (imagine) that such a huge and ferocious monster would have extinguished (will be extinguished), and maybe themselves either (后半句没看懂..). What's more, the earthquake occurred in 5.12 in Sichuan province last year is another good example. Since 14:28 that day, many of us lost our family forever, which they never thought of.(主语是many of us，从句也应该是we have never thought of.) We can't predict this kind of things (these kind of things or this kind of thing) by sciences or veritas(?没查到这个词), not to mention the limited past experiences.(最后一句没明白，我们不能预测这样的事情，更不用说有限的过去的经验?是想表达更不用说用这些有限的过去的经验来预测未来吧。)

Thirdly, past, as the experiences, maybe is (may be) some kind of "knowledge" for us. People can use the impression about the past to expect the future, which is just people's subjects wishes (wishes of subjects), not predication. Such as the domain of science, we often hear, "From this technology, we can predict that the cancer can be cure (d) in the near future....." Maybe this assertion is a little ridiculous, but many people just make such mistakes. All our human beings want to cure cancer, but we can't predict it by know (known) technologies, by past. That is only our wishes. Maybe cancer hasn't been (will not be) cured until our human being is extinguished or we die out just because of the cancer. Anything is possible. (癌症真的不能治愈吗?)

All in all, the past can't be known by (/to) people totally, and it is no predictor of the future.

1. 字数好多啊，真伟大！
我加了好多the …可数名词前面都要有定冠词~或者是复数形式或者是不可数~
2.发现你用了好多had done的形式，这个不是过去完成么…用一般过去就够了吧~个人感觉。嘿嘿注意时态~
3.你的观点是过去是不可知，就算可知还有很多变化的因素，科学也仅仅是人们的希望不是预测。

谢谢jinziqi哦
辛苦啦
1.首先对于那个lie
我查了一下还是不知道我这里应该用什么

lie in,lie on, lie to都表示“位于”，
a地在b地内比如西安在陕西用in
a，b两地挨着比如香港和内地用on
a，b两地不挨着比如台湾和中国用to

2.necessarily correct表示不一定正确，哎，我有乱造词语了，估计
3.experience这个词作为可数名词用时，解释为“经历”，作为不可数名词用时解释为“经验”

As (for) the relationship between past and future, it is too arbitrary to assert that the past is predictor of future, not only because people can’t know past necessarily correct(改成may not know the past precisely or correctly会不会好点), but also (because)(not only but also这种并列结构后面的成分结构一定要对应）the world is changing, we can't use limited impression of past to predict complex future. 

Firstly, as people say, past only lies in the history, and history is not the necessarily correct.（此句略模糊，历史不一定是正确的？说的是历史记录吧。点出是the record of history如何） It means that the past what we have known is more likely not reality. For one thing, we get the information of the past by some historical materials, such as relics, books, and so on. But all this(these) things maybe lie to us. For example, as is known to all, Wu Zetian, China's first female monarch, wangled her position in all the historical books. But what is the truth? We all don't know. Maybe the author of the original book about her whole life experiences wrote her as such a bad woman willfully only because of dissatisfaction to her. And later generation just copy the original and spread it. As a result, in all people’s opinion, Wu Zetian is just a heartless people(a person, not a people). But maybe the truth is just the reverse side. I think this situation occurs in many histories.（关于这个例子，只说到因为别人可能不喜欢她就打止未免显得浅了一点，不妨说多一点，指出武则天的掌权违背了传统观念，于是守旧的史家更倾向于批判她。这种解释也比较合理）For another, the historical materials what can be referenced by us is limited. People living in the modern time just explore these things and guess what had happened in the past, which is called as history. Can we really make the guess fit for reality? Not really, and it is quite unbelievable that people make the entire guess exactly. So, we can't trust history completely, and past can't be rebuilt. It is impossible for people living in the future to know what had happened in the past, and we can't use the wrong impression of the past in our mind to predict future, to tell us what will happen in the future.（这个观点显得有些偏颇了。毕竟历史研究不仅是靠猜测，也有结合考古等等啊。虽然有不可知论这一说法，但个人觉得这种极端的观点不太能服人）


Secondly, even though the information about past is just the fact, we should not jump (to) the conclusion that past is predictor of the future, because the situations are always changing. （嗯，这个观点不错）There are so many unpredictable items in the world. No one knows what will happen in the next second. Dinosaur, living in the 200 million years ago, had dominated the earth more than 106 million years. If we didn’t live in the modern time, we can’t image that such a huge and ferocious monster would have extinguished, and maybe themselves either.（这句话费解。如果我们不身处现代，我们就不能想象恐龙会灭绝？怎么读起来很奇怪呢……其实只要说我们无法想象恐龙会灭绝，或者当我们身处恐龙时代的时候肯定想不到恐龙会灭绝，这样会不会好一点？） What's more, the earthquake occurred in 5.12 in Sichuan province last year is another good example. Since 14:28 that day, many of us lost our family forever, which they never thought of. We can't predict this kind of things by sciences or veritas, not to mention the limited past experiences.（主题句提到因为时势随时在变化所以不能好好地预测。后文提到的更多是偶然因素的作用。个人感觉变化跟偶然还是有点差别的，但具体差别在哪里就说不上来了= =）

Thirdly, past, as the experiences, maybe is some kind of "knowledge" for us. People can use the impression about past to expect future, which is just people's subjects(subjective) wishes, not predication. Such as (in) the domain of science, we often hear, "From this technology, we can predict that the cancer can be cure in the near future....." Maybe this assertion is a little ridiculous, but many people just make such mistakes. All our human beings want to cure cancer, but we can't predict it by know technologies, by past. That is only our wishes. Maybe cancer hasn't been cured until our human being is extinguished or we die out just because of the cancer. Anything is possible.（内容跟主题句没有合上。主题句换成第二句subjective wishes那句就合上了。这句knowledge不知道要表达啥）

All in all, past can't be known by people totally, and it is no predictor of the future.

要打分的话，3.5吧……不太会评分。

And later generation just copy the original and spread it. As a result, in all people’s opinion, Wu Zetian is just a heartless person. But maybe the truth is just the reverse side. I think this situation occurs in many histories events. For another, the historical materials what can be referenced by us is limited.

And later generation just copy the original and spread it. As a result, in all people’s opinion, Wu Zetian is just a heartless person. But maybe the truth is just the reverse side. I think this situation occurs in many histories events.For another, the historical materials what(which？) can be referenced by us islimited. People living in the modern time just explore these things andguess what had happened in the past, which is called as history. Can wereally make the guess fit for reality? Not really, and it is quiteunbelievable that people make the entire guess exactly. So, we can'ttrust history completely, and past can't be rebuilt.（the past can't be rebuilt是想表达什么呢？？个人感觉应该是as ‘past’ can be rebuilt according to the current monarch 's will） It is impossiblefor people living in the future to know what had happened in the past,and we can't use the wrong impression of the past in our minds to predict future, to tell us what will happen in the future.

Secondly, even though theinformation about past is just the fact, we should not jump to theconclusion that past is predictor of the future, because the situationsare always changing. There are so many unpredictable items in theworld. No one knows what will happen in the next second. Dinosaur,living in the 200 million years ago, had dominated the earth more than106 million years. If we didn’t live in the modern time, we can’t imagethat such a huge and ferocious monster would have extinguished, andmaybe themselves either(这个例子想表达什么呢？？). What's more, the earthquake occurred in 5.12in Sichuan province last year is another good example. Since 14:28 thatday, many of us lost our family forever, which they never thought of.（这里应该再进一步论述，之所以导致地震，是因为科学技术的不完善，因此我们不能仅仅于依赖于过去的经验，尤其是这些尚未成熟的领域）We can't predict this kind of things by sciences or veritas, not tomention the limited past experiences.

Thirdly, past, as the experiences,（past=experience??建议：past, giving experiences） maybe is some kind of wealth for us, which can be used to expect future. However, Ithink it is just people's subjective wishes, not predication. Such asthe domain of science, we often hear, "From this technology, we canpredict that the cancer can be cure in the near future....." Maybe thisassertion is a little ridiculous, but many people just make suchmistakes.(这句话有点别扭，Riduculous as the assertion is, it is raised by humankind frequently) All our human beings want to cure cancer, but we can'tpredict it by known technologies, by past. That is only our wishes.Maybe cancer hasn't been cured until our human being is extinguished orwe die out just because of the cancer. Anything is possible.(这一段的论述有点太绝对了，完全推翻了以后治愈癌症的可能了，而且最大的漏洞就是 we canpredict that the cancer can be cure in the near future，他说的是near future，这并非完全不可能的。）

All in all, past can't be known by people totally, and it is no predictor of the future.
