问题    Observation of an object in isolation tells us not             【S1】______
more than it exists. Seeing in relation to something              【S2】______
else, however, it may be revealed to have certain
implications. For examples, if I apply a light to a
pile of sticks, I expect this to catch fire and, shortly,
to see smoke arising from them. If I see a rapidly                【S3】______
traveling billiard ball make contact with a free-standing
stationary one, I expect that latter to start to moving.          【S4】______
If I put a pan of water on the stove, I expect that, sooner
or later, its contents will not boil and turn to steam.           【S5】______
   Why do I expect these things? Obviously, becauseS5
previous experience (my own and that of others) had
led me to do such. Without this there would be nothing            【S6】______
to prevent my thinking that one could have smoke with             【S7】______
a fire, that billiard would be more to their own accord,          【S8】______
or that water would boil in the absence of heat. As it is,
observation has shown me that this is not so. For any
of the above particular things to come round,                     【S9】______
it may have been preceded by another equally                      【S10】______
particular thing. [br] 【S8】

答案 to→of
解析 of one’s own accord的意思是“自愿地，主动地”，属于习惯用法。
