【解析】

試題分析：文章介紹了一種特殊的野生水稻的產(chǎn)地、生長條件、特點(diǎn)及其價(jià)值。

【1】actually.考查副詞。修飾整個(gè)句子并在句中作狀語要用副詞，故填actually。

【2】be found.考查語態(tài)。句中主語是this grain，和動(dòng)詞find是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，指這種谷物被發(fā)現(xiàn)。此處是情態(tài)動(dòng)詞的被動(dòng)，由情態(tài)動(dòng)詞+be+過去分詞構(gòu)成，故填be found。

【3】deeper.考查形容詞。句中包含than是比較的意思，要用比較級，指比別的品種需要更深的水。故填deeper。

【4】that.考查狀語從句。so ...that...如此……以至于……，此處指它的秸稈是如此脆以至于很多種設(shè)備不能被使用。故填that。

【5】to harvest.考查不定式。It takes sth. to do sth.花費(fèi)……做某事，動(dòng)詞用不定式。此處指收獲野生水稻需要耐心和手工勞動(dòng)，故填to harvest。

【6】from.考查固定短語。separate from把…和…分開，此處指谷殼必須和谷子分開，故填from。

【7】going.考查動(dòng)詞形式。prevent ... from doing sth.阻止……做某事，其中from是介詞，后面用動(dòng)詞的-ing形式，故填going。

【8】where.考查定語從句。句中包含定語從句，先行詞是many areas，在定語從句中作狀語，指在許多區(qū)域，要用關(guān)系副詞where引導(dǎo)，故填where。

【9】a.考查冠詞。此處指這是一件可惜的事用This is a pity，故填冠詞a。

【10】production.考查名詞。此處由the修飾后面的名詞，指這種特殊水稻的生產(chǎn)。故填名詞production。
