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 1 side is as much interesting. It may be a discussion of the way to 2 in good health, or 3 about how to behave and conduct oneself in society. If I cut the front article, the opposite one is likely to 4 damage, leaving out half of it or keeping the text 5 the title.

I 19 remember a philosopher’s remarks: “When one door shuts, another opens in life. ”So a casual(隨意的) 20 may not be a bad one.
