Lines split in half in e-book reader

After editing epub books in Sigil I usually read them in Calibre on my computer. Some books will show at the bottom of the page only the upper part of the line with the bottom part cut off, while the bottom part of the same line will be shown on the top of the next page with the top part cut off. I would very much like to know if there is a method to avoid such awkward behavior from happening. I've tried a few tricks, like adding margins to the css @page rule or to the body section, but to no avail. The funny thing is that the vast majority of epubs never show this problem, while some do and when they do they usually show them in copious amounts. I've added two sample images to clarify the problem. It's a nuisance that has irked me for years. I hope there is a solution. Thank you.
