["Main Reading Reading Intermediate 2 Unit 9 Erosion of Beaches Some people build houses near the ocean. When waves take away sand from the beach, water comes closer to the houses. With no sand left in front of the houses, they can fall into the ocean. Erosion of Rocks Erosion also happens on steep cliffs. Waves hit the bottom of the cliffs. They carry away tiny pieces of rock. Over time, the bottom of the cliff becomes weak. It can crumble and fall into the sea.","Main Reading Reading Intermediate 2 Unit 9 Stopping Erosion Some people try to stop erosion.
