we can't say “it's __________”.
Even the smallest words can be _________. When you see the capitalized “WHO” in a medical report, do you read it as the “who” in “Who's that ” What about “IT” and “US”
You also have to wonder at the ______ madness of a language in which a house can burn up as it burns down.
English was invented by people, not computers and it reflects the _________ of the human race. That is why when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And that is why when I wind up my watch, it starts, but when I wind up this passage, it ends.
