How to adjust last text on last page dynamically?

Question

I am writing report and now improving look and feel of the report. I found that last section appears in last of page and its remaininng part on next page which does not look good.

enter image description here

How can i move sectinon2 and its content to next page dynamically.

By default, LaTeX will not insert a page break after the first line of a section. Therefore, please add a minimal working example (MWE). — lockstep, Jan 26 '13 at 11:43
I think Enlarge a single page might what you are looking for. (If this alone fixes the issue for you, please comment here so that we can close this question as a duplicate.) — Martin Scharrer, Jan 26 '13 at 12:18
No, I need to do it dynamically. My text is variable. It may vary from report to report so i cannot make it fixed. — manish, Jan 26 '13 at 15:20

The needspace package provides a means to conditionally insert content based on the amount of space left on a page. In this instance, you might be after a setup like the following:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{needspace,lipsum}% http://ctan.org/pkg/{needspace,lipsum}
\begin{document}
\section{First section}\lipsum[1-4]
\needspace{6\baselineskip}% <--------- Need 6 lines of text, or insert a page break
\section{Another section}\lipsum[1-4]
\end{document}

Comment out the line containing \needspace in order to see the difference. You can vary this length to suit your needs, depending on the amount of text that follow \section{Another section}, to avoid seeing widowed lines of text.
