Whatever the primitive drives _15_ motivate human beings,satisfying them depends heavily on the ability to _16_ future circumstances.The attempt to predict is often played in a _17_ of knowledge and understanding.If you can understand why certain regular patterns _18_,you can predict better than if you simply observe those patterns. Thus, human inquiry aims _19_ answering both what and why question,and we pursue these _20_ by observing and figuring out.
