【解析】

本文主要講述如今垃圾很多，我們可以充分利用它們。作者想象用垃圾建立城市，雖然這只是一個(gè)夢(mèng)想，但是在未來會(huì)實(shí)現(xiàn)。

【1】

句意：你可能會(huì)認(rèn)為這是難以置信的。

important重要的；unbelievable難以置信的；understanding可理解的；possible可能的。根據(jù)下文中“However, it can be true! Nothing is a waste if we have a creative mind.”可知，你可能會(huì)認(rèn)為這是難以置信的，但如果我們有創(chuàng)造力，沒有什么會(huì)是垃圾。故選B。

【2】

句意：讓我向你展示一些關(guān)于再次使用垃圾的事情。

returning返回；reflecting反應(yīng)；reusing再次使用；repeating重復(fù)。根據(jù)下文中“but in fact, some rubbish can be used again”可知，一些垃圾可以再次被使用，所以此處展示的是關(guān)于再次使用垃圾的事情。故選C。

【3】

句意：許多大城市因?yàn)樗�而變得如此丑陋�?/span>

because因?yàn)�，后接句子�?/span>because of因?yàn)�，由于，后接短語；instead of而不是；as for至于。根據(jù)上文中“Sometimes we can see tons of rubbish in the streets, on the roads, near the buildings … here and there.”可知，有時(shí)我們可以在街道上、道路上、建筑物附近看到成噸的垃圾，許多城市因此而變得丑陋，句中it是代詞，代指上文中提到的情況，不是一個(gè)完整的句子，所以用because of。故選B。

【4】

句意：我們必須做一些事情去利用垃圾。

make use of使用，利用；make promises作出承諾；make up our mind to下定決心去；make a living as以……為生。根據(jù)上文中“All of us want to solve the problem.”可知，我們都想解決垃圾的問題，所以我們我們必須做一些事情去利用垃圾。故選A。

【5】

句意：這樣，一些好的東西就不會(huì)被浪費(fèi)了。

On the way在路上；By the way順便說一下；In this way這樣，用這種方法；Out of the way讓路。根據(jù)上文中“We should take action from now on.”可知，我們應(yīng)該從現(xiàn)在開始行動(dòng)，這樣，一些好的東西就不會(huì)被浪費(fèi)了。故選C。

【6】

句意：當(dāng)一個(gè)瓶子是空的，它會(huì)被當(dāng)作廢棄物扔掉。

threw away扔掉；will be thrown away將被扔掉；will throw away將扔掉；was thrown away被扔掉。句中bottle與throw away之間是邏輯上的被動(dòng)關(guān)系，應(yīng)使用被動(dòng)語態(tài)，結(jié)構(gòu)為be bone所以排除A和C；D項(xiàng)中was是is的過去式，與原句時(shí)態(tài)不符，故排除，所以此處使用will be thrown away將被扔掉。故選B。

【7】

句意：來自食物中的垃圾可以變成肥料，使植物生長得更好。

from來自；in在……里；on在……上；to到……。根據(jù)句中food可知，此處是Rubbish from food，表示“來自食物中的垃圾”。故選A。

【8】

句意：現(xiàn)在，越來越多的機(jī)器都是為此而設(shè)計(jì)的。

fewer and fewer越來越少，用于可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)形式；less and less越來越少，用于不可數(shù)名詞；more and less或多或少；more and more越來越多。根據(jù)上文中“Rubbish from food can be changed into fertilizer(肥料) to make plants grow better. It is cheap and safe. And other rubbish can also be used to make building blocks.”可知，垃圾可以被改變成肥料或者建筑材料，所以此處是“越來越多的機(jī)器都是為了轉(zhuǎn)化垃圾設(shè)計(jì)的”。故選D。

【9】

句意：將來有一天，人們將會(huì)在用垃圾建成的美麗電影院里看電影。

Some day將來有一天；The other day不久前某一天；Nowadays現(xiàn)今；In the day在白天。根據(jù)句中will可知，此處時(shí)態(tài)為一般將來時(shí)，所以此處使用some day，表示“將來的某一天”。故選A。

【10】

句意：但到目前為止，用垃圾建造美麗的城市只是一個(gè)夢(mèng)想。

a dream一個(gè)夢(mèng)想；a lesson一節(jié)課；a symbol一個(gè)象征；a letter一封信。根據(jù)句中“But so far”可知，將來的城市、道路可以用垃圾來建造，但是現(xiàn)在，用垃圾建造美麗的城市還沒有實(shí)現(xiàn)，只是一個(gè)夢(mèng)想。故選A。
