【题目】From deserts and beaches to playgrounds, sand is a common sight. But you might not know that sand is also a useful resource. Sand is the second most-used resource in the world after water, the BBC reported. However, the UN said that sand is not limitless and that we might be running out of 【1】
Sand is made up of very small 【2】 (piece) of rock, soil and minerals(矿物质). It can take tens of thousands of years to form. But now we are using sand more【3】 (quick) than it is being formed. According to the BBC, we use about 15 billion tons of sand every year 【4】 build houses, roads and other things. People also put sand in the【5】 [si:] to make new islands. For example, the Palm islands are made up of three【6】 [lɑd] man-made islands in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. In 2010, they 【7】 (take) 94 million cubic meters of sand to build. If people keep【8】(use) this much sand, it will run out in many places. For example, Vietnam may run out of construction sand by 2020, Live Science noted.
【9】 [sins] people need so much sand, they are trying to mine(开采) more of it. But this is bad for the environment. Mining sand may 【10】 beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea. Also, this may affect the habitats (栖息地) of many plants and animals.
【答案】

【2】pieces
【3】quickly
【4】to
【5】sea
【6】large
【7】took
【8】using
【9】Since
【10】cause
【解析】
本文介绍了沙子是一种常见的景观。沙子也是一种有用的资源。沙是世界上仅次于水的第二大资源。然而,联合国说,沙土并不是无限的,我们可能会用完的。沙子由非常小的岩石、土壤和矿物质组成。它可能需要数万年才能形成。我们每年用大约150亿吨沙子建造房屋、道路和其他东西。开采沙可能会导致海滩消失,在靠近大海的地方会发生更多的洪水。此外,这可能会影响许多动植物的栖息地。
【1】句意:然而,联合国说,沙子并不是无限的,我们有可能会用完它们。run out of“用完,用尽”的意思。这里用it来指代上文的沙子(sand是不可数名词)。故答案为:it。
【2】句意:沙子由非常小的岩石、土壤和矿物质组成。根据rock, soil and minerals(矿物质)可知,这是几种成分,因此piece用复数pieces。所以答案为:pieces。
【3】句意:但现在我们使用沙子的速度比它形成的速度要快。use“使用”,动词,因此后面用副词来修饰。所以答案为:quickly。
【4】句意:据英国广播公司报道,我们每年用大约150亿吨沙子建造房屋、道路和其他东西。本题考查 use sth. to do sth. 用某物做某物。本题用动词不定式做目的状语。故答案为:to。
【5】句意:人们还把沙子放进海里,制造新的岛屿。由语境和音标[si:]提示可知,填:sea。这里是指用沙造岛屿。所以答案为:sea。
【6】句意:例如,棕榈岛由阿拉伯联合酋长国迪拜的三个大型人工岛屿组成的。由语境和音标[lɑd]提示可知,填:large。three large man-made islands三个大型的人工岛屿。所以答案为:large。
【7】句意:2010年,他们用9400万立方米的沙子建造。由In 2010可知,本题的时态为一般过去时。take的过去式为took。所以答案为:took。
【8】句意:如果人们继续使用这么多沙子,它会在很多地方用完。本题考查keep doing sth. 继续做某事。因此用动名词做宾语。故答案为:using。
【9】句意:由于人们需要这么多沙子,他们正试图开采更多的沙子。由语境和音标[lɑd]提示可知,填:since 自…以来; 因为; 由于。首字母要大写。所以答案为:Since。
【10】句意:开采沙可能会导致海滩消失,在靠近大海的地方会发生更多的洪水。根据beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea海滩消失,在靠近大海的地方会发生更多的洪水。可知,这些是开采沙所导致的后果。因此填:cause。may是情态动词,后跟动词原形。故答案为:cause。
