【解析】
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了人类在生活中各个方面的浪费现象十分严重,现在是呼吁停止浪费的时候了。
【1】考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:食物因为味道不好而被浪费掉。陈述的是客观事实,food 与waste之间是被动关系,所以用一般现在时的被动语态,主语是food,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式,故填is wasted。
【2】考查名词。句意:人们砍伐树木只是为了获取燃料。tree是可数名词,空后的“are”表明此处用复数形式,故填Trees。
【3】考查副词。句意:人们捕杀野生动物只是为了获取食物。修饰介词短语for food用副词,故填simply。
【4】考查冠词。句意:煤和矿物的开采方式很糟糕。way是可数名词,此处用不定冠词表泛指,bad的发音以元音音素开头,故填a。
【5】考查形容词。句意:许多人倾向于把时间花在毫无价值的事情上,比如在街上闲逛,在办公室闲聊,或者白天睡大觉。修饰名词things用形容词,根据空后的举例可知此处表示“无价值的”,故填worthless。
【6】考查动名词。句意同上,分析句子结构可知此处与wandering和gossiping并列用动名词作such as的宾语,故填sleeping。
【7】考查时态和主谓一致。句意:正如我们所知,时间对我们是如此宝贵,一去不复返。if引导的条件状语从句用一般现在时表将来,主语是it,谓语用第三人称单数形式,故填passes。
【8】考查固定句型。句意:现在是呼吁停止浪费的时候了。It is time to do是固定句型,表示“是做某事的时候了”,故填to call。
【9】考查非限定性定语从句。句意:一方面,我们必须节约和充分利用自然资源,这对我们的未来非常重要。此处为非限定性定语从句,关系词指代整个主句内容并在从句中作主语,故填which。
【10】考查固定短语。句意:否则,人类将面临自然资源的匮乏和遭受浪费造成的污染。suffer from表示“遭受”,故填from。
