问题     An earthquake hit Kashmir on Oct. 8, 2005. It took some 75 000 lives,【C1】______ 130 000 and left nearly 3.5 million without food, jobs or homes.
    【C2】______ overnight, scores of tent villages bloomed【C3】______ the region, tended by international aid organizations, military【C4】______ and aid groups working day and night to shelter the survivors before winter set【C5】______ .
    Mercifully, the season was mild. But with the【C6】______ of spring, the refugees will be moved again. Camps that【C7】______ health care, food and shelter for 150 000 survivors have begun to close as they were【C8】______ intended to be permanent.
    For most of the refugees, the thought of going back brings【C9】______ emotions. The past six months have been difficult. Families of【C10】______ many as 10 people have had to shelter【C11】______ a single tent and share cookstoves and bathing【C12】______ with neighbors. "They are looking forward to the clean water of their rivers," officials say. "They are【C13】______ of free fresh fruit. They want to get back to their herds and start【C14】______ again." But most will be returning to 【C15】______ but heaps of ruins. In many villages, electrical【C16】______ have not been repaired, nor have roads. Aid workers【C17】______ that it will take years to rebuild what the earthquake took【C18】______. And for the thousands of survivors, the【C19】______ will never be complete.
    Yet the survivors have to start somewhere. New homes can be built【C20】______ the stones, bricks and beams of old ones. Spring is coming and it is a good time to start again.
【C15】
选项 A、anything
B、something
C、everything
D、nothing
答案D
解析 逻辑衔接。本空格填入的名词应表示难民回去后要面对的现实状况，结合空格后的but heaps of ruins可知，他们原来拥有的一切已经因为地震而变成了一片废墟，所以这里应填入表示一无所有的nothing。nothing but意在强调“除了……什么都没有”。
