【分析】
本文通过讲述作者改变自己清洁习惯的经历，来告诉人们重复利用一些环保的东西来做清洁。
1 ．
句意：毕竟，即使我们的废物被带走了，它也不会凭空消失。根据 “our waste doesn't just disappear even if it is taken” 及首字母，可知，此处表示 “ 被带走 ” ，用 take away 表示 “ 带走 ” ，故填 (a)way 。
2 ．
句意：我听到并看到的时候都不敢相信。根据中文提示， hear 表示 “ 听到 ” ，根据 “didn’t” 可知，此空应填动词过去式，故填 heard 。
3 ．
句意：自从我试过以后，我的窗户比以前更干净了。根据 “I have had clearer windows than before … I tried it” 及首字母，可知，自从试过以后就发现这个很好用， since“ 自从 ” ，故填 (s)ince 。
4 ．
句意：我以前认为纸巾越多，家就越干净。根据 “But now” 可知，此处影视描述过去常常发生的事情，用 used to do sth 表示 “ 过去常常做某事 ” ，故填 to 。
5 ．
句意：我喜欢用新鲜的白纸清洗，然后扔掉它的想法。此空指代前文提到的 “the fresh white paper” ， paper 是不可数名词，用代词 it 指代，故填 it 。
6 ．
句意：但现在我知道我不能再用纸巾了。根据 “because paper towels are a huge waste problem” 可知，发现了这个问题，所以要停止使用纸巾了， stop doing sth“ 停止做某事 ” ， have to do sth“ 必须做某事 ” ，故填 (s)top 。
7 ．
句意：减少使用纸巾可以节约树木、水、空气和我们的钱。根据中文提示， tree 表示 “ 树 ” ，此处不是单指一棵树，要用其复数形式，故填 trees 。
8 ．
句意：最近，我和我的家人开始收集所有的旧衣服。根据中文提示， clothes 表示 “ 衣服 ” ，故填 clothes 。
9 ．
句意：让其中一片做一些清洁已经成为我们的新习惯。此空缺少形容词修饰名词 habit ，根据前文描述，作者之前习惯用纸巾做清洁，现在用衣服的碎片成为一种新的习惯，结合首字母 n ，可推断，此空应填 new“ 新的 ” ，故填 (n)ew 。
10 ．
句意：我以为打破一个 30 年的习惯是一件很不容易的事。此处表示 “ 一件不容易的事 ” ，表泛指，且 uneasy 是以元音音素开头的单词，故填 an 。
