【解析】短文大意：這是一篇科普類文章，該文中介紹了一些防震減災(zāi)的方法。首先，在地球的板塊連接處松軟的地方建造房屋不是一個(gè)好的的想法。其次，如果你認(rèn)為那里可能有地震，最好是把房子建在巖石上。第三，你必須使房子盡可能地牢固。

（1）根據(jù)句意：要在地球的板塊連接處松軟的地方建造房屋不是一個(gè)好的的想法。所填詞在句中修飾名詞該用形容詞，結(jié)合所給的詞匯可知該填寫good。

（2）根據(jù)句意：要在地球的板塊連接處松軟的地方建造房屋不是一個(gè)好的的想法。結(jié)合所給的詞匯可知該填寫soft。

（3）根據(jù)句意：如果你認(rèn)為那里可能有地震，最好是把房子建在巖石上。結(jié)合所給的詞匯可知該填寫may。在這里表示猜測(cè)、假設(shè)，意思是“可能”。

（4）根據(jù)句意：如果你認(rèn)為某個(gè)地方可能要發(fā)生地震，最好是將房屋建筑在地質(zhì)比較堅(jiān)硬的地帶，而不能建在地質(zhì)松的地帶。 比如像沙漠這樣的地帶就不能建造房屋。結(jié)合所給的詞匯可知該填寫sand， “沙地”與前面的rocks 一詞對(duì)應(yīng)。

（5）根據(jù)句意：除地質(zhì)條件外，將房屋建得 “牢固”些，也是減輕地震災(zāi)害的一項(xiàng)重要措施。所填詞在句中修飾動(dòng)詞作狀語該用副詞，結(jié)合所給的詞匯可知該填寫strongly。

（6）根據(jù)句意：軟弱的建筑物將在地震中倒塌，但強(qiáng)的建筑物可以矗立不動(dòng)。結(jié)合所給的詞匯可知該填寫stay up。, 在這里是“站立、矗立”的意思，與前面的 fall down 一詞相對(duì)應(yīng)。

（7）根據(jù)句意：科學(xué)家們之所以感到擔(dān)心和害怕，是因?yàn)槟抢锏娜诉�在那里建造房屋。結(jié)合所給的詞匯可知該填寫afraid。, 因?yàn)榕f金山這個(gè)城市就建在太平洋板塊與美洲大陸板塊交界的地帶，所以說科學(xué)家們感到擔(dān)心、害怕。

（8）根據(jù)句意：科學(xué)家們之所以感到擔(dān)心和害怕，是因?yàn)槟抢锏娜诉�在那里建造房屋。這正好與前面說的減輕地震災(zāi)害的方法相反。結(jié)合所給的詞匯可知該填寫houses。

（9）根據(jù)句意：舊金山及周邊地區(qū)的人口現(xiàn)在比1906的多十幾倍。這正好與前面說的減輕地震災(zāi)害的方法相反。結(jié)合所給的詞匯可知該填寫times。

（10）根據(jù)句意：舊金山如果依舊那樣的話，一旦有一天發(fā)生地震，后果將不堪設(shè)想。結(jié)合所給的詞匯可知該填寫if，文章最后小結(jié)提出假設(shè)。
