One afternoon recently, two unrelated friends called to tell me that, well, their marriages【B1】______. One was leaving his wife for another woman. The other was leaving her husband because "we thought it best".

It was an anger similar to that I feel when I see【B3】______ foundations of building projects—piled bricks and girders and a gash in the ground left to depress the passerby.
