A wolf pack may trail a herd of elk, caribou or other large prey for days before making its move. During this time, they are already hunting, assessing the herd, looking for an animal that displays any sign of weakness, and this is just the beginning. Wolves must also factor in other conditions that will affect the hunt; weather and terrain can tip the scales in favor of predator or prey.
Ancient Greeks would go to an oracle to find out different prophecies. Oracles were said to be able to see the future and were granted prophecies from the gods themselves. Greeks would go to the oracle to try and find out their future or answers to why things were going poorly.
Since 'next' is a time-order word, you need another.
'Then' is a time-order word. You are not stating a 'fact', nothing happened abruptly, or 'suddenly', and you aren't comparing anything, 'similarly'.

By today’s standards, my mobile phone is pretty basic. It’s a Nokia.
It’s a small device that receives telephone calls and sends text
messages. Other than that, my phone does NOT DO that much. Most
of my friends wish they could HAVE their own smartphones because they
are cool and trendy. They say the GOOD thing about a
smartphone is that you ‘can do everything with it!’ That’s right,
smartphones have many more functions than a simple phone, however, not
all of them are needed. In everyday life, smartphones are used mainly for checking social networking sites,
replying to emails, and playing games. Grown-ups as well as children, like playing games. Anyway, I prefer my good old
Nokia. It’s my number ONE mobile phone. When I bought it, it
didn’t cost me very much. And I am not afraid anyone
will ever steal it. It’s also very reliable. Yesterday I dropped it. It flew down the staircase and hit the wall. I thought
that would BE the end of it and I would have to buy a new
one. But nothing of the kind – it still works properly!
