参考答案:  C


本题详细解析:
A grain of sand is about a 1-3 millimetre long while human beings are aecg5uh(kxq8 (s6zs1 d)49fr ac pqk7tbout $2 \mathrm{~m}$ tall (very roughly!). So: $\frac{\text { height of human }}{\text { size of a grain of sand }}=\frac{2 \mathrm{~m}}{0.002 \mathrm{~m}} \approx 1000$ So we are about $1000=10^3$ times taller than a grain of sand. If you chose #2, this answer implies that a human is $10^{1000}$ times bigger than a grain of sand. This is a huge number!
