set character length . simply 

  protected String genrateString(String source, int numberOfWords){
    BreakIterator iterator = BreakIterator.getSentenceInstance(Locale.US);
    iterator.setText(source);
    int start = iterator.first();
    StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
    for (int end = iterator.next();end != BreakIterator.DONE;start = end, end = iterator.next()) {
        String newSentence =source.substring(start,end);

        int currentWordCount = countWord(sb.toString());

        int newWordCount = currentWordCount + countWord(newSentence);

        if(newWordCount-numberOfWords >= 0.1*numberOfWords) {
            if(currentWordCount<numberOfWords && numberOfWords-currentWordCount > newWordCount-numberOfWords)
                sb.append(newSentence);
            else
                break;
        }
        else
            sb.append(newSentence);
    }
    return sb.toString();
}
