Ⅵ.完形填空
I live on the coast with beautiful sandy beaches. It's the perfect 24 for my favourite hobby—making sand sculptures. I'd never thought of making sand sculptures before 25 some fantastic ones appeared all along the beach. Beautiful buildings and lovely animals were all made of sand. From that moment, I knew that this was something I just had to do, though I'd never considered myself to be a(n) 26.
In fact, anyone can create a sand sculpture, but it's much harder than it looks. The first sand sculpture I tried making was a two-metre-long dolphin. I was making 27 on it until suddenly the head started to break off! I tried everything to 28 it, but it was hopeless. Soon the whole thing turned into a big pile of sand. Some people nearby seemed to think this was quite funny, but that just made me keep trying even 29. I wished I'd listened to an expert (专家) online who recommended digging up 30 sand and using it to build sand sculptures because it sticks together better. So, I did that for my next sculpture of a camel. And I 31 to complete it in four hours! I was very happy about that.
People say that making sand castles is for kids, not adults, but that doesn't bother (困扰) me at all. Many people don't understand that even a 32 touch can make a sand sculpture fall off. Of course, heavy rain can do some damage (损坏), but not as much as you might think. If you build far enough up the beach, the sea water won't 33 a sand sculpture away either. So, next time you're at the seaside, make one yourself—you'll get a great sense of achievement!
