Dear puzzle, 1. They are basically the same, because things that are done easily are generally done quickly. 2. The condition of your health is the state of your health, which is 'what it is'. 3. 'any' goes with your 1st blank space, and 'anyone' goes with your 2nd. There is no need for commas or semi-colons. OK?  |
