When I come across a good article in reading newspapers,I often want to cut and keep it.But just as I am about to do so,I find the article on the 31 side is as much interesting.It may be a discussion of the way to 32 in good health,or advice about how to behave and 33 yourself in society.If I cut the front articles,the opposite one is likely to suffer 34 ,leaving one half of it or keeping the text 35 the title.Therefore,the scissors would stay before they start, 36 the cutting would be halfway done when I find out the 37 result.
Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time,both worth your 39 .You can only take up one of them;the other has to wait or be 39 up.But you know the future is unpredictable—the changed situation may not 40 you to do what is left behind.Thus you are 41 in a difficult position and feel sad.How come nice 42 and clever ideas should gather around all at once? It may happen that your life 43 greatly on your preference of your one choice to the other.
In fact that is what 44 is like;we are often 45 with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both 46 like a newspaper cutting.It often occurs that our attention is 47 to the thing only after we get into another.The former may be more important than the latter and this 48 a divided mind.I still remember a philosopher’s 49 :“When one door shuts,another opens in life.”So a casual(不经意的) 50 may not be a bad one.

The performance went surprisingly well, 44 , until it was time for the sack race(跳袋比赛). Now each child had to climb into a sack from a standing position, 45 to a goal line, return and climb out of the sack.

Two other boys stood a little ahead of her. 49 the player in front of Kristi stepped from the sack, those two boys seized the sack and held it 50 while the tall boy lifted Kristi and 51 her neatly into it. A girl in front of Kristi took her hand and 52 her carefully until Kristi gained her balance. Then off she jumped, 53 and proud.
Among the 54 of teachers, schoolmates and parents, I walked off by myself to thank God for the 55 , understanding people in life who make it possible for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings.
