This article is written in general. Although the language is gorgeous, there are some mistakes.
First, there is no clear argument. I remember a junior high school text, Wu Han's "Talking about the Backbone", which started with a rock-breaking sentence. We China people have backbone! Although the argument need not be expressed in this form. But this argumentative essay gives the impression that it should be an exam-oriented composition. According to the requirements of the exam-oriented composition, no teacher will help you summarize the full text.
Second, the discussion has turned over. Due to the lack of a clear center, the author often talks about another aspect from one aspect. The author didn't focus on the full text, how to make life without regrets, and does life mean no regrets if you do something valuable? These two issues are clearly discussed.
Third, structural problems. Argumentative writing can be divided into two parts: horizontal and vertical. Horizontal style is relatively rigid. I recommend the vertical type, that is, the transitional type. Gou Jian, the author of the whole article, did not follow these four links. The direct consequence is loose structure.
Of course, this argumentative paper also has many merits, such as gorgeous language, powerful examples and appropriate metaphors. But these are superficial things. If the author wants to write a good argumentative essay, he should put more energy into the basic skills.
