It may be a discussion of the way to __2__ in good health, or __3__ about how to behave and conduct oneself in society.

Therefore, the scissors would __6__ before they start, __7__ halfway done when I find out the __8__ result.       Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time, both worth your __9__. You can only take up one of them, the other has to wait or be __10__ up.      But you know the future is unpredictable-the changed situation may not allow you to do what is left __11__. Thus you are __12__ in a difficult position and feel sad. How __13__ that nice chances and brilliant ideas should gather around all at once? It may happen that your life __14__ greatly on your preference of one choice to the other.       In fact that is what __15__ is like: we are often __16__ with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both desirable like a newspaper cutting. It often occurs that your attention is drawn to one thing only __17__ we get into another. The __18__ may be more important than the latter and give rise to divided mind. I __19__ remember a philosopher's remarks, "When one door shuts, another opens in life." So a casual __20__ may not be a bad one.,
