Words of a sentence appearing in separate nodes, Elementtree

Basically I created a word document to check how the parsing in XML fares. I did :

import xml.etree.ElementTree  
import zipfile as zf  
z = zf.ZipFile("INTRODUCTION.docx")  
doc_xml = z.open("word/document.xml")  

tree = ET.parse(doc_xml)

NAMESPACE_PREFIXES = {
    'w': 'http://ift.tt/JiuBoE'
    }  


text_elements = [element for element in tree.iter() if element.tag == 
'{' + NAMESPACE_PREFIXES['w'] + '}t']
for node in text_elements:
    print node.text  

The Namespace prefixes is to take care of those links so that they are ignored. The node.text got printed as:

INTRODUCTION
This is a test document for xml
.
Lets
 see how this works.
Conclusion
It should hopefully
..

In my original document , "Lets see how this works" comes in a single line , similarly , I see the full stops appearing in another node . How do I solve it? Here's the xml code:

I noticed something like w:type="spellStart" and "grasmStart" which is the reason why "Lets" appears in a different node. Is there a way to look over this?
