(20) F divided

(21) G from

(22) H met

(23) B any

(24) K why

(25) J themselves

(26) E caught

(27) C as

Explanation:

• (0) the correct word is a preposition that we use when we compare two things, which is between.
• (19) No word is needed since the verb robs in the sentence only needs a direct object, which is bits of your life.
• (20) the correct word that goes with into is divided. It indicates that we can separate something amongst things, in this case, into two kinds of people.
• (21) The preposition "from" indicates a specific location as a starting point that the person uses to move to another location. He moves from place A to place B.
• (22) the verb met is used as part of a conditional form that indicates that something is possible to happen in the future.
• (23) The quantifier 'any" has to follow a noun, which in this case is the schedule, and it is indicating that there is no specific schedule. All of them can be modified.
• (24) the correct word is the adverb why since it is asking for the reason for something.
• (25) The subject in the sentence is they, as we want to refer to the same group of people. We use the reflexive pronoun themselves.
• (26) We need to use the word caught to express that we have a virus in ourselves, as when we caught a cold, we also caught a virus.
• (27) the adverb "as" is comparing two similar things.
