Many of us were raised with the saying 'Waste not, want not. ' None of us, however, can 【1】 (complete) avoid waste in our lives.

【3】 big difference. It's a good feeling to know in our hearts we are doing our best in a world that 【4】 (be) in serious trouble. By focusing on 【5】 (save) oil, water, paper, food, and clothing, we are playing a part 【6】 cutting down on waste.

【解析】

这是一篇议论文。文章教育我们要养成节约的好习惯，因为“由俭入奢易，由奢入俭难”。我们一个小小的良好的习惯会产生很大的作用和影响。

【1】考查副词。分析句子可知，此处应用副词修饰动词avoid，故填completely。

【2】考查形容词。分析句子可知，此处应用形容词修饰名词resources，natural resources“自然资源”，故填natural。

【3】考查冠词。此处是固定短语make a big difference“有重大影响”，又big是辅音音素开头，故填a。

【4】考查时态。分析句子可知此处是定语从句的谓语动词，主语that指代先行词a world，故它是第三人称单数，又从句讲述一般事实，应用一般现在时，故填is。

【5】考查动名词。此处应用save的动名词充当介词on的宾语，故填saving。

【6】考查介词。此处考查短语play a part in“在……起作用”，故填in。

【7】考查形容词比较级。分析句子可知，此处应用形容词作为句子表语，再由下文的than判断为比较级，故填easier。

【8】考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，此处应用非谓语动词作后置定语，逻辑主语damage和do之间是被动关系，应用过去分词，故填done。

【9】考查非谓语动词。此处考查固定句型it is time for sb. to do sth.“对于某人来说是做某事的时间了”，故填to say。

【10】考查并列连词。句意：我们不能解决所有的浪费问题，但是我们可以鼓励正能量。根据句意可知，上下文是转折关系，用并列连词but/yet“但是”符合语境，故填but/yet。
