Question

三. 完形填空：

When I come across a good essay in reading newspapers, I often feel like cutting and keeping it. But just as I am about to do so I find the article on the 1___ side is as much interesting. It may be a discussion of the way to keep in good health, or advice about how to be oneself in 2___ . If I cut the front essay, the opposite one is bound to 3___ damage, leaving out half of it or keeping the text without the subject. As a result, the scissors would 4___ before they start, or halfway done when I find out the result that inevitably cause me 5___.

Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time, both worthy your 6___. You can only take up one of them, while the other has to wait or be 7___. But you know the future is unpredictable ---- the changed 8___ may not allow you to do what is 9___ behind. Thus you are caught in a fix and feel sad. 10 ___come that nice opportunities and brilliant ideas should gather around all at once? It may 11___ that your life changes dramatically on your preference of one 12___ to the other.

In fact that is what life is like: we are often 13___ with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both desirable like newspaper cutting. It often 14___ that our attention is drawn to one thing only after we take up another. The former may be more 15___ than the latter and give rise to a divided 16___ . I still remember a philosopher’s remarks, “When one door shuts, another opens in life.”17___ a passive choice may not be a bad one.

Whatever we do in our lifetime, wherever life’s storm makes us 18 ___, there must be something we can 19___ , some shore we can land on. Don’t forget God always keeps an alternative door open for every one. While the front door is closed, there must be another 20___ for you.
