【推荐3】At ten o’clock on the morning of May 25, 2009, Nasir Uddin was standing outside his mud house. He noticed that the river next to his house was higher than ________. He looked toward the sea. He suddenly saw a huge wall of brown water. It was rushing toward him. Within minutes, the water came into his house. It washed away the mud walls. Uddin and his three young daughters jumped onto the kitchen table. “I was sure we were all dead,” he later said. ________, an empty boat passed by. He managed to put his daughters in the boat. He held on to its side. This Bangladeshi family was ________. They were saved, but hundreds of their neighbors died.

Floods happen when a river or the sea rises and covers dry land. Unfortunately, Bangladesh often experiences floods. This is because the majority of its land is less than 15 feet (5 meters) above sea level. The sea level is rising because of global warming. As it rises, it ________ more land in Bangladesh. In the worst-case scenario, the country may ________ one quarter of its land by the end of the century to the water. This is very serious because millions of people live close to the sea.

Coastal flooding is also very destructive because it ________ the land with salty seawater. The salt ________ in the soil even after the flood is over. When there is too much salt, farmers cannot grow their crops, which is ________ threatening farming communities in Bangladesh. Frequent coastal flooding is destroying farms and crops. As a result, many farmers can no longer farm. Worse still, farmers often have nowhere to go. They cannot move to a new area because Bangladesh is so ________. In fact, it is one of the most packed countries in the world.

Bangladeshis are facing many challenges from flooding. Yet this is a nation of strong people. They are finding solutions. Bangladeshi farmers now grow special rice ________ for salt water. They raise sea food such as shrimp and crab in areas closest to the sea. ________, they have built huge walls of earth. They hope these walls will keep the sea away from their vegetable farms. They have also stored temporary tents to ________ victims and developed an early-warning system. “Let me tell you about Bangladeshis,” says Zakir Kibria, a farming expert. “We may look poor..., but we are not ________. We don’t sit there waiting for help and we always ________ ourselves.”

So, when Uddin lost his home that day, he did what most Bangladeshis do: He rebuilt. This time, however, he built his house out of wood, not mud. He wants his home to ________ the next flood.
