52. 饥不饥，捎干粮；冷不冷，捎衣裳，这句话其实和我们最开始提及到的几个成语的意思都大同小异。它指的是指以前在农村外出时，不管当时肚子饿不饿，都要多带上一些干粮在路上吃，也不管现在的天气冷不冷，背包里都要备上一些衣服再出门。因为人生总是有太多的不可预见，就像你在外出时，本来只需要一个小时的车程，结果因为堵车需要花费你三到四个小时的时间耗在路上，这个时候若有些干粮正躺在你的背包里，它能帮你稍微填饱一下肚子，补充少许能量，想想这难道不是很好吗？或者你刚出门时可能正阳光明媚，可谁也不能保证去到别的地方，下一刻会不会刮起冷风，这个时候，若你早已准备好衣裳，岂不是正好能解决燃眉之急。

52. Whether you're hungry or not, take some dried food; whether it's cold or not, take some clothes. This saying is actually quite similar in meaning to the several idioms we mentioned at the beginning. It refers to the practice in the past when people went out in the countryside. No matter if they were hungry at the time, they would always carry extra dried food for eating on the way. And regardless of whether the weather was cold or not, they would always pack some clothes in their backpack before leaving. Because life is always full of unforeseen events. For example, you might have planned a one-hour drive, but because of traffic, it takes you three to four hours to get there. At this time, if you have some dried food in your backpack, it can help you fill your stomach a bit and give you some energy. Isn't that good? Or, when you first leave, it might be sunny, but no one can guarantee that when you get to another place, the next moment won't bring a cold wind. At this point, if you have already prepared some clothes, isn't it just the perfect solution to an urgent need?

63. Especially for those who travel long distances, the journey is long and the time span is considerable. The external environment is subject to change at any moment.

65. Of course, these words are still very applicable in today's society. They remind us that we must always be well-prepared before doing anything. Only in this way can we avoid being too embarrassed when we discover something. Moreover, it is also telling us that whether in dealing with people or planning things, our perspective should not be too narrow-sighted. Although we can't predict the future, at least we should consider several possible outcomes so that we can have enough methods to cope with them.
