Structural Analysis of the text
Theme: Although developed after birth, habit becomes actually no less an inborn quality of a human creature than his character, and can powerfully control his behavior. (尽管是后天形成的,习惯如同人的性格,实际上是一种天性的东西,可以控制人的行为。) Para 1 thesis argument (Duke‘s famous remark)
Para 2    a humorous story to support argument (cited from another well-known figure – in this ca Prof. Huxley, who humorous story may well rve as a footnote to the duke‘s proposition.)
韩国租车Para 3 examples of his own to strengthen argument
lucky jason mraz(Having thus stated his ca for the power of habit, the author is now ready to explore other aspects of the topic.)
Para 4 the relation of habit to society (Thanks to the power of habit, society is able to keep different people in different occupations or positions, and is thus saved from collap into disorder.)
Para 5    a distinction in age between the formation of intellectual and professional habits and the formation of personal habits (He claims that personal habits, such as your accent, your manner of standing or moving and your habit of wearing clothes, are formed even
earlier in one‘s life, and their firm fixedness is clearly evident in tho who later move to    a higher social class.)
Para 6    a piece of advice (We should take advantage of, rather than struggle against, the power of habit. The author urges us to form, as early as possible, as many good habits as we can, so that our behavior may be decisive and our conscious mind may be freed from the burden of daily routine and applied to more uful work.)
