YES
It is generally believed that no one stands still. If you are not moving ahead, you’re falling behind.
Life is in constant change. Traditions can be a guide, but not necessarily superior. Better ways of living can be found.
It’s neither the strongest nor the most intelligent that will survive, it is those who are most adaptable to changes.
NO
Frequent change is not without its limitations in many aspects. For example, those who prefer job-hopping may not make professional progress and have fewer chances of promotion because of low loyalty.

解析     本篇文章属于论述文。首段提出两种对立观点:即有些人喜欢常规的生活,避免改变(enjoy routine and avoid change);而另外一些人喜欢改变,并认为变化总是好的(others prefer to be more flexible and think that change is good)。第二段主要通过举例(exemplification)论证这两种对立的观点。支持变化的人认为变化能丰富一个人的经历(gain a wider range of experiences)。比如,人们通过改变工作可以体验各个公司与机构的工作异同,还可以接触到不同的人,而那些在国外生活的人有机会了解不同的文化,这对他们的个人与职业发展大有裨益(which benefits them both personally and professionally)。然而,变化也会带来破坏性作用(disruptive),比如,经常换工作的人不易晋升,因为忠诚度高并且熟悉公司业务的员工更受青睐。而在生活中其他方面也是如此。学生经常换学校就不能熟悉老师,也不能交到朋友。第三段总结全文,作者认为,尽管改变能带来一些好处,但其缺点大于优点,因为持续不断的变化会带来更大的问题(the disadvantages outweigh the advantages and that constant change leads to greater problems)。
