1 상업의 영향으로 변화한 세계관과 가치관
Using commerce as an example, we can see how changes in ____ and values came about: as Piggot explains,

3 음악의 사회적, 실용적 성격
In praxial terms, sound is deemed to be music according to any personal, ____, and cultural functions it serves.
Sounds are ‘musical’ not simply because of their sonic characteristics, but because of the functions people assign them in specific ____ situations.
Without shared understandings of tonal-rhythmic systems and their socially-related behaviours and uses, music would not be understood as ____ more than random sounds.
In short, music is made by human ____ for other human beings.
The existence and continuance of ____ practices depends on human transmission, or various forms of informal and formal education that are also matters of social-musical praxis.
____, musical values and meanings are not intrinsic, they are not ‘fixed-in’ sonic forms or captured in notated scores; musical values are socially assigned to sounds according to how sounds are used, experienced, and understood as being ‘good for’ various purposes in personal and social life.
Thus, and far from being strictly individual or ‘interior’, musical experiences are socially constructed and socially shared phenomena, and musical experiences invariably ____ many dimensions beyond so-called aesthetic qualities — specific voices, instruments, situations, places, processes, people, and so forth.

Pathogenesis and ____ are two sides of the same coin.
Sadly, much of our modern-day medicine is focused on the pathogenic model: emphasis on all the scary illnesses and diseases that can await us if we don’t ____ good care of ourselves (and sometimes even if we do).
It is easier to conceptualise a disease state than a healthy state of an ____.
We know that disease is caused by the presence of an insult that can be genetic, environmental, or caused by a decline in normal physiological function, such as during ____.
Health, on the other hand, ____ to be more metaphysical — a so-called state of ‘wellbeing’.
As an absence of disease, health becomes somewhat ____.
5 생존자 편향
Survivorship bias shows us that we can be fooled by the presence and existence of something if we fail to consider the wider ____.
The best known example is from World War II history, when British RAF planes returning from bombing runs in Germany were thought to be the most vulnerable in the ____ where they were observed to be hit most often: around the wingtips, rear tail assemblies, and the center of the plane.
But that was merely a subset of all the planes sent out; the ones that had failed to return had been fatally hit in the more vital areas of the plane: the engines, ____, and fuel tanks.
They didn’t see those because they ____ returned.
____ survived to return was merely hit in less important areas and so to reinforce those areas — as was initially proposed — would have been a tragic error, merely protecting less important parts of the plane while leaving the vital parts exposed.
This shows just how easily we can sometimes ____ ourselves if we are not more careful in our reasoning.
