解析试题分析:
【小题1】因为人是被杀的,所以用过去分词表示被动
【小题2】现在分词做状语,名词a magnitude 8.8 earthquake和动词cause是主谓关系,所以用现在分词做状语
【小题3】考查从句,从句centered 100 kilometers from the city of Concepcion but caused damage缺少主语,所以用which
【小题4】考查被动式,因为车自己不会翻,主语是cars,所以是were overturned
【小题5】固定词组be scared of sth意思“害怕什么”
【小题6】介词to意思“达到”,表示潮汐波达到两米
【小题7】介词to表示方向,逃到较高的地方
【小题8】表示这次自然灾害是最剧烈灾害之一
【小题9】the表示特指
【小题10】因为前面有less,修饰形容词,所以是destructive
