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 __36__ side is as much interesting. It may be a d iscussion of the way to __37__ in good health, or __38__ about how to behave and conduct oneself in society.

It often occurs that our attention is drawn to one thing only ____52____ we get into another. The __53__ may be more important than the latter and give rise to a divided mind.

(The rooms normally rent for about $ 140!) Besides, he had the staff of that hotel all 33 him until my uncle was able to drive the 100 miles to pick him up!
So, it’s just one more piece of 34 that proves that there are still good people out there; wherever you go, there is always one who 35 .
