【解析】

试题分析：一位女儿受父亲的影响，当了一名飞行员，六年后女儿有幸和父亲共同驾驶一架飞机，这次经历对于女儿来说如坐针毡，但是一切都非常顺利。

【1】 as 考查介词。as+表示职业的名词，表示从事某一职业。

【2】has been flying/has flown 考查时态。此处是指她已经开了六年飞机了，过去的动作持续到现在，所以用现在完成时或现在完成进行时。

【3】the 考查固定结构。same前面必须加定冠词。

【4】inspired 考查非谓语动词。此处是“连词+分词”结构，句子主语Miss Elliott和inspire是被动关系，用过去分词，填inspired。

【5】that 考查强调句型。强调句型为：it is/was+强调部分+that+其它成份。

【6】that 考查同位语从句。横线后面是announcement的具体内容，所以此处连接定语从句，故填that。

【7】saying 考查非谓语动词。从结构可知此处是非谓语短语做伴随状语，句子主语Miss Elliott和say之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词saying。

【8】whether 考查连词。句意：他不断的问我是否紧张。根据句尾的or not可知，填whether。

【9】more relaxed 考查比较级。a lot后面接形容词或副词的比较级，根据句中的be，可知此处填形容词的比较级。
