• These missing elements primarily involve adjectives(valuable), adverb('away, everywhere), articles that are placed according to the noun(an' before a vowel sound in the first blank), prepositions which help link a word or phrase to the other part of the sentence and make it meaningful.
• The verbs like 'feels', 'had' 'opened', etc. are put according to the subject verb-agreement and the context of tense used in the previous sentence or passage.
