In the past,people used to make clothes and do repairs on things in the house more than nowadays.I think the difference between then and now has been 1 by a number of 2 such as the quantity of other 3 ,the differences in jobs and in lifestyles,etc.
In the past,after people finished their workdays,it was still 4 and they didn’t have too many other activities to do, 5 they spent their free time doing some repairs and many women used to make 6 (most of them didn’t even have a job).Nowadays, 7 ,a large number of women work and both men and women have to 8 the pressures of work and they usually work 9 hours,so they have little time to do repairs or make clothes themselves.
Another reason that has led to this 10 is that people have less and less time for a 11 that requires a lot of time.And when their hobby needs some knowledge,they have little time t
o learn it.Because everything that you want to 12 is more technical and complicated (复杂的) than before,doing repairs takes up too much 13 and people nearly always have to turn to a qualified technician.
Besides,traditions are being 14 because people learn traditions from their parents when they are young,but nowadays, 15 people have too many hobbies.

I still remember the first day of my class.Dr Horne had the rare ability to make 1 maths seem simple.Of course,I still 2 to keep up,so I attended his open office hours every we
ek to catch up on the material that I couldn’t 3 in class.At first,I was concerned that he wouldn’t be pleased with how much extra help I was seeking.I was 4 for no reason.Not only would he go through any homework problem with which I 5 ,but he made sure I knew that he wanted me to be there.After the work on differential equations was 6 ,we would sit and chat about Carolina sports,the dynamics (动态) of the classroom and 7 his friend’s upcoming wedding.Needless to say,Dr Horne became a 8 in my life just when I needed the most 9 .
I had a difficult time telling certain people about my 10 to focus only on journalism.Months after my decision,I still hadn’t told Dr Horne.I didn’t want to 11 him since he had spent so much time 12 me.I eventually ran into him at a movie theater.We went out for coffee after the 13 to catch up on each other’s lives.When I told him about my decision and the 14 behind it,he couldn’t have been more supportive.He really 15 what was best for me.That,to me,is the definition of a friend.
