问题 Responsibilities pertaining to property and land use are agreed upon within a signed, binding contract. And while it is fathomable that a disagreement with the owner of an adjacent property may occur, particular difficulty arises in defining the party liable for necessary maintenance when said disagreement is over the deterioration of a naturally occurring, communally-owned parcel, such as a beach.
In California, the coastal city of Encinitas is slowly watching its shoreline wash away. The beach has a massive sand deficit with over 100,000 cubic yards of sand lost on an annual basis. The sand erosion is a natural occurrence, but beachfront property owners and the city government are attempting to fight mother nature with a sand replenishment project. This involves dredging up 2 million cubic yards of sand from the ocean bottom at a cost of $25 million.
Select the sentence that shows the scope of the problem in Encinitas.

选项

答案"The beach has... on an annual basis."

解析 The best answer is: "The beach has a massive sand deficit with over 100,000 cubic yards of sand lost on an annual basis." This sentence defines the problem with the beach in Encinitas. The last sentence is inappropriate because it outlines the scope of a potential solution.
